| Been holding off saying anything in case I thought I might be jumping the gun. However, after today I think he's reinforced by opinion that he's the first natural stand off we've produced over here since, probably, Tommy Martyn.
I'm not saying there hasn't been good stand offs since him, but there really hasn't been one who has that footballing guile. Williams has it. That thing that players seem to struggle with developing over here.
Fingers crossed he can stay healthy and improve his game because he has tonnes of potential.

| His decision making for his age is very good. He's a far better kicker than he is a passer but he is a great prospect, and to be fair to him, he's already a better defender than Martyn ever was

| Hampshire is even better in my opinion however Wane still insists on playing him at fb rather than in his natural position. Everyone who has seen Hampshire and Williams play as a half back pairing together for the Warriors academy or England knows this except Wane!

| Well, if we're comparing halfbacks, I'd say George Williams probably wins it by a nose...

| Kevin brown is too old to be brought into the fold now. His England career should be starting to fade out now not just beginning.

| Kev Brown has been a slow burner who's now an excellent player who can control a game after having his early career damaged by being over burdened at Wigan. He was a fabulous young talent when he broke through with us but he never had much of a kicking game and was pretty much just a running threat. He's a Wigan fan and was desperate to do well so I'm glad his career has gone as well as it has.
As for Williams he's another cracking talent. He's a nuggety player who can defend strong and he's a real threat with the ball. His short kicking game is very good and if he can work on his passing game he could become a really well rounded player. His decision making is getting better and better and it needed to because it was too slow at the start of the year and he got caught in possession a lot.
