[QUOTE="jawmalawm24, post: 235212"] I think Shane Williams deserves it alot more than Dan Carter, Richie McCaw etc. The reason I say this is because it'll be hard not to shine when you have an embarrassment of good players surrounding you like the All Blacks do. Shane Williams has to play year after year behind a beaten pack when it comes to playing against nations like the All Blacks, Wallabies and Springboks but he still manages to make a awesome career out of what's handed to him. I use to think just because he's from the northern hemisphere and he gets wasted when he plays in the southern hemisphere he sucked but now I have a great respect for him because he is a little player that has to play up against big man and he's usually got no help around him so he can only really depend on himself. There are some other good players for Wales but Shane Williams stands well above most of them, so I think there is no arguement what so ever and he thoroughly deserves his IRB player of the year award.
