Quote="The Eclipse"The big difference for me was the half backs, Hampshire and Williams were very good for Wigan but the Leeds pair created absolutely nothing.'"
It would be interesting to know what regulars to the u19s think Williams best position will be when he matures, when you look at him now he seems to be a very big lad who seems to be clever and strong and not lacking in confidence.'"
Having been to most 19's games this season and before I've always favoured Williams over Hampshire even though I believe Hampshire has more to his game than Williams in terms of his goal kicking and ability to play in more than his natural position of stand off but that's been one attribute that a lot of Stand Offs have the ability to fill in at Full Back with little problem, I just enjoy watching Williams more and it slightly irritates me when people report on the 19's games as all they talk about is Hampshire whereas as if not for Williams then Hampshire wouldn't stand out as much for example the Leeds game at the weekend Willliams created several tries one of which was for Hampshire I just struggle to understand why Williams rarely gets mentioned for his major contribution to the side, but that aside both are very exciting prospects and I'm just glad they are in reserve for Wigan and not Saints, Leeds or Wire as both have massive potential both players remind me of younger versions of Sam in as much as you can only see greats things in the future for both players and in my honest opinion Williams will remain at Scrum Half but despite Tierney being around I see Hampshire as the long term Sam replacement and can see Tierney switch to either Wing or Centre.
