Williams hoping to emulate Howlett

SHANE WILLIAMS has won almost every major honour in the game over the last 12 months but the wing wizard still has one burning ambition left to achieve in club rugby — to join idol Doug Howlett and win the Heineken Cup.

Williams hoping to emulate Howlett

In a sensational 2008, Williams helped the Ospreys win the EDF Energy Cup and picked up three major individual awards — IRB World Player of the Year, Welsh Sports Personality of the Year and British Rugby Writers Player of the Year to add to two previous Magners League titles and two Grand Slams with Wales.

Now the Ospreys ace is hell-bent on emulating wing great and All Black star Howlett by claiming European rugby’s top prize.
