Well Williams is a natural half back so its no surprise he is better there. He has also done a much better job at hooker than many give him credit for but just lacks a little of the size and strength needed there in defence. He is still just a kid though and with age this will come.

I saw it completely differently, the combination between Smith and Williams wasn't working at all early on, we looked much better when him and Powell switched. I'd use Powell at 6 with Williams offering a running option off the bench to spell McIlorum.

Nice to have these potential options.....

It's the loss of concentration and focus that occasionally let him down that worry me.

He seems probe to the odd unforced error at times. Hopefully as he matures that will come as he is an excellent prospect.

Would like us to sign a quality half to replace Green for 2 years and get Williams out on loan to a SL club next year and have him fighting for a shirt in 2016 and beyond.

SW said after the match that he switched them during the game, then back again then a further switch too.
He said it was to help them as at 9 they were tackling in the middle and the switching would change it around.
What he's going to do with them once Green and Micky are back who knows.
Mind you, we do seem to have had a long injury list since around Easter.

I hope the clueless clowns who were slagging him off recently now apologise.

In future give these kids a chance before writing them off.

Are you his mum of something? You seem very precious about Williams.

I have never seen one post on here writing him off. I have seen posts regarding certain aspects of his performance that must improve if he is to reach his potential.

Despite his excellent performance against shocking opposition he still made several unforced errors. He must get these out of his game if he is to be the player we all hope he can be.
