About time you got off that shitter and got your priorities in order.

Williams is a middle forward. Brown is a half. Accept it FFS.

He started at second row in round three, though they did get belted by the Tigers.

He’s a middle. Please amend same.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I’m sure he’ll play in the middle, but he is at least an option on the edge. Unlike true middles Greig, Paulo, Ofahengaue, etc.

 

[Gronk]

He started at second row in round three, though they did get belted by the Tigers.

Last match ? He subbed the lock and then the prop.

Since edge forwards are usually 80 minute players you wouldn’t expect a bench merkin to play there unless there was an injury. I see Williams as a backup option out wide, but who will play in the middle in a full strength side. Like Lane and Matterson.
