Quote: bazdev "Think people are being harsh on Williams. Had he and French swapped sides on Saturday wed have had the same result with Williams probably taking the Lance Todd. His forwards were beaten all ends up and its impossible to dominate a final in that outcome.
2 years ago when our pack wasnt dominating games Harry Smith was getting absolutely destroyed (by some of our fans not just opposition) it's a tough job playing in the halves behind a beaten pack'"
We've been on the back foot against saints in the past and Penrith this year and it's harry smith and his kicking game that kept us in the game. I don't think Williams could do that. But isn't the threat that Williams is.
I think the pack thing is a bit of an excuse. They had the chance to end sets better and almost never did.
