[QUOTE="Mrs. Peter Quinn, post: 849243, member: 12190"] Agree about Wigglesworth. He's been a part of Saracens for long enough to make some crucial to their success, but he's not the kind of player who would do the same instantly elsewhere. Besides which he got 27 caps for England and was lucky there were basically not ma y other good 9s at the time. Re. Scott Williams I don't think it's an example of being unlucky; when I talk about the Irish Scots and English who got unlucky I mean players who many expected to be on the plane on a combination of talent and form, but who lost a 50/50 call on the day. Scott Williams is a great player but how many peoples squads was he in? The ubiquitous picks at centre were Henshaw, Joseph, and Farrell. Then it was a toss up between Gary Ringrose, Jonathan Davies, or Huw Jones maybe. Also Elliott Daly best position is probably 13 and jared Payne plays well there. Scott Williams is unlucky that there's so much competition in his spot, but not in the sense that he could have or should gone and narrowly lost out. [/QUOTE]
