Shane Williams
Discussion
World class.
iRB player of the year
Highest try scorer for Wales by a huge margin
A game changer
A true finisher
Really last in the line for smaller wingers now it's all size and that means slower less dynamic it's a shame.
Gerald Davies gave him epic praise today stating he would have made it in the team of the golden era.

Yes he will be missed,but i think Wales could be on the platform of being the best team they have ever produced. Williams will be replaced and the welsh machine should roll on.
I really want Wales to be fantastic again,as they can bring the passion back to world rugby.
I got fed up telling the Kiwi people that they are not the only rugby nation on this planet.

He was the only world class player in red yesterday. Is he going too early?
After the euphoria of the RWC the weaknesses of the side were only too apparent. They've got nearly four years to improve, but then so has everyone else.
It seemed to me a good team display but I was expecting more. The favet that Williams scored right at the death gave us all something to cheer about but in retrospect it was not the performance we all hoped for, was it.

Thing is with Shane I think he will deteriorate rather rapidly. Once that burst of pace starts to go or the agility ebbs a little he will not be able to get to the gaps his mind can see. Although still a fantastic player he would have another season max in him at the highest level.
Think its clear to say that the yellow card turned and decided the game. Aus. were clinical during that 10 mins and made us pay big style.
So answer now is really who will wear the no.11 shirt for the 6'rs and take us forward into the next WC?
I know Cuthbert was on the bench yest but just how good is he???? Good enough?
Maybe 1/2p going back to his natural position on the wing and a 15 being groomed? Martyn Thomas at the dragons has looked dangerous the last few times ive seen him?

Also to note that was pretty much full strength Oz side bs a Welsh sidewith 2nd choice second row third choice or lower at tight head third choice at scrum half ditto outside centre.
Anyway given that apart from the sin bin we did well against an Ozzie side of that quality.
Hard to say of they gave 100% as it was a friendly but to me they just don't exist in rugby.
So 6 nations France or Wales
