From what I've seen of him, he's been really improving since the middle of last year, when he was also given the goal kicking job after Chris Atkin left.

He's played a little bit in the halves this year so hopefully that will help too with his creativity for those around him, but I suspect that was more a stop-gap role as Woods was playing there for them until Williams got injured.

I think I've seen him play on both edges at centre, so not sure which side is his strongest.

Fair play to the club, this is a much better idea than playing a forward in the centres

provided they actually play him that is

He was their standout player when we played them in the pre-season game. However this is a big step up for him.
