Williams: All I ever wanted was to play for Munster

If you want your players to display fighting spirit, commitment to a cause combined with a considerable modicum of skill, then Duncan Williams should be your man.

Since he first linked up with Munster eight years ago, Williams has had to play second fiddle to three of Ireland’s finest scrum-halves, Peter Stringer, Tomas O’Leary, and Conor Murray.

He has been with Munster since 2009, but more often than not, only got his chance in the nine jersey when the top men were away on international duty or laid low by injury.
