Williams appears to have recovered from a knee injury and is ready to take his place against the Welsh All Blacks, although coach Alan Gaffney will have a difficult task in choosing his back row.

Williams, Anthony Foley and Alan Quinlan are all in contention, while Denis Leamy, Eddie Halvey and Colm McMahon will also be considered.
