Duncan Williams: ‘The hairs in the back of my neck were standing up’

Duncan Williams delighted his fans and silenced his critics when helping to guide Munster to victory over Toulouse in Saturday’s European Champions Cup quarter-final at Thomond.

With Conor Murray ruled out due to injury, Williams was handed a first start in European rugby. And how he grabbed the opportunity.

The 30-year-old has been a great servant of CBC, Cork Constitution and Munster but has seldom received the credit his efforts deserve. So was there a sense of silencing the doubters on Saturday?
