Williams may face Munster

OSPREYS say Wales star Shane Williams may be available for Friday’s table-topping Magners League clash with Munster.

The Welsh outfit say the International Rugby Board Player of the Year will definitely be ready for their crunch January 17 Heineken Cup game in Perpignan, having almost fully recovered from a shoulder injury sustained at Benetton Treviso on 13 December.

Williams, 31, is Wales’ leading try scorer with 44 from 61 caps and last year helped Wales to the Grand Slam, while winning the RBS Six Nations Player of the Year award and picking up the BBC Wales Sports Personality of the Year award, as well as the IRB accolade.
