No doubt his inclusion has a little to do with marketing however please name some other wingers who deserve a spot over him? The only ones I can come up with should only be there on reputation not form. Williams has the form on the board, been playing great ever since he came into grade.
I agree that Best and Kemp would have been just as deserving, but Williams has been in great form so I do not think it is a disgrace that he was chosen. He rarely makes an error, runs the ball back hard, breaks tackles and scores tries. Everything you want in a winger. Would hardly say Kemp is way better than Williams either, if he is better it is marginal.
I'm not begrudging Williams or anything, I just fee sorry for some of the other players who I think were more deserving. He's a good winger, but lacks class.
What do you mean by class?
I just don't think he's as good a finisher as some of the wingers out there with the ability to get outside their opponent and beat them for pace to the corner
So if Gidley was nothing special, then what does that make Slater and Stewart?
