Williams parks “world-class” Paterson at full-back

SCOTLAND coach Matt Williams inserted another chapter into the continuing story of where best to play Chris Paterson by moving his skipper out of his favoured number 10 position for tomorrow’s RBS 6 Nations Championships game against Ireland.

Paterson has won most of his 44 caps on the wing but the former Gala player has always stated his preferred position is stand-off.

Williams granted Paterson his wish in the first four games of the campaign but now the coach has moved Paterson to number 15 and brought in Glasgow’s Dan Parks for his first start.
