Speaking to Wales Online as an ambassador for The Hundred, Shane Williams agonised over who should start on the wing for the Lions with Louis Rees-Zammit missing out.
BACK-THREE:
- 15. Stuart Hogg (Scotland)
- 14. Anthony Watson (England)
- 11. Liam Williams (Wales)
Williams said: “The easiest one for me is that Stuart Hogg has to be at 15. He’s an integral part of what the Lions are all about and is the form full-back in world rugby.
“I’m a big fan of Watson – he’s been there and done it before. As has Liam Williams,” said Shane, who played for Wales 87 times over an 11-year Test career.
“If they were playing tomorrow and you wanted a proven Test team, Anthony Watson and Liam Williams would be playing.
“That means you leave Josh Adams and Louis Rees-Zammit out. That’s a very difficult choice for me because I’ve been writing up those boys for the last two years.
