What's the story with Nick Williams, wasn't he one of Ulster's star players leading up to the break?

(Edit)Whoops, nevermind just realised RW used to play for NH

Got a rib injury, has been very ineffective since then while Wilson has been very solid since getting fit. Assume he'd come on at 8 at some point, will be interesting to see how he goes back there, has been playing 6 recently.
 
From the bbc "Wood replaces Phil Dowson at open-side flanker while Lawes takes over from Mark Sorenson in the second row."

Dowson's been playing at 7!? That's desperation for you...do Saints not have a better alternative at 7?
 
Can't wait for this game... To bad I am in Canada and will be working during it.

Might try and sneek in some streaming while I work.

My money is on Ulster, they look to be the next big thing

As you say, he's been at 6 recently, ever since the rib injury really - so its hard to know whether its the injury still lingering on or whether he is just not as great at 6...
