Williams's try-scoring record across 72 matches at the highest levels of the game stands out immediately — 26 tries from a scrum half signals a player who consistently finds ways to threaten the line, not merely service it. His carrying numbers tell a similar story, accumulating over 1 700 metres in contact and regularly peaking well above his match average, suggesting he picks his moments to run with genuine intent and effect. Defensively he contributes reliably without being heavily tasked, consistent with a nine who is trusted to hurt teams with ball in hand rather than carry a heavy defensive workload.
