Williams has made the Wales team against England after defying the medics by recovering from a dislocated shoulder three weeks ahead of schedule to face theold enemy three weeks before his 34th birthday.
The 28-year-old wore a protective sleeve over theshoulder in hopes of limiting the pain he felt throughout the playoffs, but acknowledged that it bothered him tremendously at times.
Ending two-plus decades of unremarkable quarterbacking or even just starting for a few seasons is a lot to throw upon the shoulder-pads of a 22-year-old, even one with Griffin's dazzling ability.
Harinordoquy found 18-stone Bastareaud charging forward at his left shoulder and the 21-year-old evaded a desperate tackle by Kelly Brown to claim his second try ofthe game.
