The try at 15:19 was his last game for Wales. Despite losing the match he finished with a try on the last play of the game and it meant a lot him.
That makes sense now. Thanks for letting me know Will
Yeah. At that moment nobody really cared that we’d lost to Australia. All that mattered was that Shane got his moment. The whole place erupted.
Then he went and did the same thing shortly after with his final game for the Ospreys.
@@NickProductions20 Didn't he even kick the conversion on that last try for the Ospreys?
It was Shane’s last game before retiring - that’s why he celebrated
That makes sense now. Thanks for letting me know Harry
Big Shane fan here.
You're not going to see it in a video like this but the thing I admired the most about him was what he was doing when he didn't have the ball.
His workrate was incredible.
I can only imagine his workrate was unmatched. I'm going to check out his full highlight and see him in action
Shane is one of the best we've ever had in wales. He's a really nice, down to earth bloke too. He's difficult not to love.
I've heard he's an incredible man for sure
My favorite bit though had to be, "HE HAS KIDS SHANE!!!" 🤣🤣
🤣🤣 ❤️
Shane is from my Home Town in Glanamman, Wales.Always stayed close to his roots and the local Club.🙏🏴
That's so awesome! I love Shane and I will have to visit Wales very soon!
Also in that last game against Australia, the coach was mad that they let Wales score but when he saw that it was Shane he said fair enough, he deserves to go out in style. Shane, like all great players was appreciated by the opposition as well as his own team.
Thanks for the background and context about that try Richard. I love that the players showed him that respect. Very cool to see
Set the standard for smaller players in rugby. Legend
Would next recommend Jonathan Davies, he’s a very strong running centre with a lethal hand off (stiff arm).
@@cymrocam100% inspired Kolbe for Legend status
I see why. He's incredible!
I'll check out Jonathan Davies for sure
I agree!
That try 14:35 was his final try in the last international game he played for us. Check out Shane's last game national anthem, It's emotional... the man was an absolute legend and my idol when I played at U16 district level back in the 00s, he had the perfect combo of awareness and explosive speed that made him lethal in broken play 🏴
He was an absolute legend for sure! Thanks for letting me know about his final try as well. That's a special moment
Shane doesn't RUN he FLOATS.
You said it perfectly
There’s a common and old saying in rugby - ‘Forwards decide who wins the game, backs decides by how much’
I love that saying!
Yaaaaayyyy!!!! Super Shane! ❤️
Sorely missed right now
Shane is the man! ❤️
Every Welsh fan has been waiting for this 😂
hahah! Shane is incredible! I'm glad you and the Qrew recommended him. ❤️
I'm Irish and he's one of my favourite (if not my favourite) players of all time.
The try when they're losing was Shane's last game for Wales and he managed to score a try in that last game to round off his career. Wales were obviously well beaten but it was nice for Shane to score another try for Wales
He inspired a lot of us smaller Welsh guys to play rugby, he's the Messi of rugby with his low centre of gravity which aloud him to side step so good, Btw there's a documentary about him called 'shane' I'm sure it's on RUclips to watch
Your Fred Flintstone reference was gold.
hahah thanks so much William! I don't know why that reference hit me when I was watching, but his footwork triggered that memory 🤣
I appreciate you boss!
@@QSNgg No worries. It brought back a fond memory of my childhood.
Rugby, the game for all shapes and sizes. Love this sport!
David campese (pronounced cam-pay-ze) was on of Australias greatest wingers you should check him out. Also Gareth Edwards, he was a Welsh scrum half considered the greatest rugby player of all time by some people.
Thanks for the correct pronunciation on Campese! I'll check out Gareth Edwards for sure!
He is an absolute legend of rugby, a real Welsh wizard, tiny but mighty. A class player. Wales and the Lions were lucky to have him
I agree! He's so incredible! I wish I got to see him play live
You called it right when you said, "He uses his size to his advantage".
When he went professional, commentators suggested he might be too small and lightweight, but he turned it into his greatest strength.
I love when athletes prove the critics wrong. Shane was absolutely incredible! I'm glad I got to see his highlight and get a glimpse at his greatness
I knew you would like his style. I am bias being welsh but for me rugby is all about the winger with a sidestep. Have not seen many better than shane.
Yeah he's incredible! Thanks for the recommendation
My favourite player.
❤ from Northeast England ❤️
He's incredible!
The green and white is to represent our backup symbol of wales….the leek 😂
Thanks for letting me know! It didn't even cross my mind as I was watching 🤣
Cam - pay - zee is how you pronounce Campese :)
Thanks for that Lewis! I butchered his name 😬
Love the content! Next you should check out “Peter Steph du toit” South African man of the match from the World Cup final. Phenomenal player. He actually wasn’t supposed to be a pro rugby player after tearing his Achilles but his dad sacrificed his own and donated it to him so he could become as great as he is. Worth a watch!
I appreciate you Liam! Du Toit is 100% on my radar and I'll check him out
@@QSNggPSDT has one of the most hardcore injury profiles I’ve ever off. Check out Big Jims (Jim Hamilton) interview with PSDT where he outlines all the injuries and surgery man it’s amazing that he made to RWC let alone cleaning people out like they were personal enemies.
Its really cool watching you learn more about a sport I love and have watched all my life. These feats are even more impressive when you start to recognise the other players on the field. When you realise that player he jinked under was Brian Habana, Or the tackle he shrugged off was from Sebastien Chabal. Williams was and is an absolute legend of the game, such a pleasure to watch, and as an Irishman, an absolute pest who broke my heart on more than one occasion. David Campese is pronounced Cam-Pi-Zee. Keep up the good work.
Massive love Caolan! I appreciate you boss! Yeah it's so cool getting to learn about all these incredible men in rugby and witnessing their amazing talent.
I wished I would've been exposed to the game more in my life I know I would've been so dialed in the history
Thanks for all of your support ❤️🙌🏽
Green socks: the Welsh flag (best in the world with magnificent red dragon in the centre), is red, white and green.
Thanks for letting me know. It makes sense in hindsight. I didn't realize it when I was watching
I think only Jason Robinson for England had comparable footwork during this era. He was unplayable at times. A bit of a menace on the booze - I've heard some stories! But great for Wales and Ospreys. I feel like you enjoyed this one which makes me happy as Welshman!
I agree Jason Robison ran 100m in 10.67 sec and Shane Williams ran 10.68
Jason Robinson is a must watch - I’ve never seen speed on a rugby pitch in the same way as I’ve seen from him!
gio aplon had a better step
@@subbie5498 yeah served him well for the 5 tries he scored in 17 caps for the boks lol. Couldnt lace shanes boots.
@@rhysyboy37 He was probably a better athlete than shane but shane edged him in rugby IQ. Sometimes Robinson looked frantic but his pace, strength and footwork would get him out of trouble.
You need to check out Danie Gerber, Christian Cullen, Fourie du Perez, Schalk Burger, Johnny Wilkinson, Phillips Sella and to see big tackles watch Brian Lima who was known as the Chiropractor
I'll check all them men out for sure! Thanks for the incredible recommendations Robert!
Shane! Absolute legend!
100%! He's incredible!
Love your enthusiasm sir!
Thanks so much Steve! I appreciate you ❤️🙌🏽
Yeah the green and white socks for wales is because on their flag its a red dragon with a green and white background, so I guess they wanted to have all the colours
That makes perfect sense thank you! I didn't even think of that when I was watching
You should watch the Wales vs Scotland comeback. Epic Shane Williams. Epic Wales.
Also, if you want to understand British rugby a bit more, then check out the 'Living With Lions' 1997 documentary. Gives you a great taste of how rugby players tick, and how they put nationalities aside to represent the All Stars of British and Irish rugby - ruclips.net/video/35gk6PX1-0U/видео.htmlsi=B05h8_7RvIBIRfhv
I'll check that out for sure! Thank you!
Thanks so much for linking me to this. I'm going to check out this documentary to learn more. Massive love Kieron🙌🏽
We need you in the commentators box for Rugby bro! youre a vibe in every video 🫡
hahah I appreciate you Tia!! Hopefully one day! 🙌🏽
Guinness did a series of short ads featuring 'underdog' or comeback players - including one for Williams..
ruclips.net/video/IRaTsrmzhPI/видео.html
I'll check that series out
Green socks , red shirts for Dragon , White shorts for skyline , Green socks for Grass , as in the Welsh flag ..also told too small to play rugby , Was a couple of Welsh coaches who. Didnt pick him due to size..and he scored that try with backflip against Aus when losing , as was his testimonial testimonial match ..saying goodbye to Welsh fans
Wales' flag is red, white and green, so sometimes when kits are redesigned, or if another team has red socks Wales revert to a green sock.
Thanks for letting me know that Jeffrey. I can't believe I missed that when I was watching it. I should've known. Thanks so much I appreciate you!
His cadence is godlike. Watch the steps he is taking compared to players chasing him. 😂
You said it perfectly Wes! He has an incredible cadence
Interesting fact I'm Welsh, shane was always told throughout his school days he was too small, he was also a very decent gymnast. Go figure, am small myself and played Rugby in school , small and speed has advantage
I love how he showed the critics wrong. Strong and powerful. I love how he used his size to his advantage. Shows that size doesn't matter and I love that 🙌🏽
What position did you play?
Answer to your question is that was his final game for wales and they wanted him to go out with flair. Yes they lost but he got the final score of the game and went out with a bang.
Thanks for letting me know that! Such a cool moment knowing the context
Australia actually had a run of 13 straight wins against Wales from 2009 to 2018.
Shane Williams played in a lot of those games.
Australia just had the wood on Wales for a long time.
In fact, aus has won 31 times against Wales, and Wales has only beaten Australia 14 times.
The try was his last match and he scored right at the end. He got a standing ovation from both teans after the match.
Legendary winger.
Not many guys with his build left in the modern game.
Most wingers nowadays are big units, 100kg over 6ft.
I mean, shane retired 2011, he beat Australia with Wales earlier in the decade. Your most recent game is what matters tho hey
Thanks for letting me know the history Jon, I appreciate you boss!
Jason Robinson recommended below is one to check out, he’s got a huge highlight reel! A smaller highlight reel from an explosive winger is Takudzwa Ngwenya, who played for the USA and famously had a 1-on-1 with Bryan Habana that’s worth seeing!
Another I’d definitely recommend is Danny Cipriani - he was basically englands version of Finn Russell but didn’t get many caps because of various off field reasons, but he would always put on an absolute SHOW. Loving the videos!
Thanks so much Rhys! I'll check out Jason Robinson and Danny Cipriani! I appreciate you!
Camp- easy is how you pronounce the name at the start.
Easy way of knowing lb to stone conversion is that there is 14 pounds in a stone so multiply the stones by 14 and add the remainder and you’ll get the weight in lb (12x14 =168)
Thanks for the correct pronunciation on his name and the conversion on stones. I appreciate you David!
Shane was always exciting to watch, he was a superstar in his day. I actually met him once, he's from the same town as me. I dont remember a lot of what happened though, i was steaming drunk haha
That's awesome you met him! That's an incredible memory even while being steaming drunk 🤣🍻
@@QSNgg so, do you think Shane would have made a running back?
Jason Robinson recommended below is a good one, he was exceptional in rugby league and carried over that success into rugby union - something which not many players did before him.
P.S. a stone is 14lbs and I dont know why we still use that measurement either 😂
I'll 100% check out Jason Robinson! Thanks so much! haha yeah stones measurement threw me off. Thanks for the conversion 🙌🏽
you should try Christian Wade and Danny Cipriani not many England caps, which is a crying shame, some of the best ever attacking, naturally gifted players to play union
I will check out both Wade and Cipriani! Thanks for the recommendation 🙌🏽
16 oz in a lb, 14 lbs in a stone.
Imperial is easy. All you need to know is base: 3, 4, 12, 14, 16, 20, 22, and 100. I think its more intuitive than metric.
That makes perfect sense! Thanks for breaking this down boss
Told he was too small to play rugby 😂 The flip try celebration v Australia was his last ever match for Wales and his 53rd international try. Shame Andrew didn't put in an overhead shot of his try v RSA when he stepped infield off the wing bringing 4 SA players around him boxing him in then he stepped back out to wing and dusted them. Diolch Shane.
Shane is incredible!! Thanks for letting me know about that celebration try as well. That makes more sense now. I would've loved to see that overhead shop of his RSA try
Last game last play i was there and cried like a little girl
That's awesome you were there and saw it live! Incredible lifelong memory
The first brilliant rugby player who was under 5'8 😂
He was brilliant but there were plenty of shorter rugby players before him :-) Jason Robinson for a more recent one..edited to say check Rob howley he was also brilliant
gio aplon was next level too
That's legendary!
I'll check out Jason Robinson
Gio is on my list too
Him in his prime would do wonders as a Running back
You're right about that!
My guess for the socks is the Welsh green dragon.
You're spot on JJ! I didn't think of that when I was watching it
Great vid and such an awesome player. You should check out Jason Robinson, an English player who has a very similar build and playing style to Shane but he's a tad faster ;) although the welsh may disagree haha
I'll 100% check out Jason Robinson! Thanks so much Richie!
Great video bro. But I'm still waiting on the Cristian Cullen video. The paekakariki express.
Much love! I have Christian Cullen coming out very soon 🙌🏽
He was very similer in his elusive running To the great NFL running back Barry Saunders.
You're right about that!
Jeff shane was one of my idols growing up. Like you have madden we had the ea version of rugby . However they stoped making a rugby game in 2008. In that game Shane williams had an Acceleration of 98 in the game and was completely meta broken. The only person that could beat hin was Jason Robinson (Engalnd's version of shane) who I now expect next from you naturally. had obviously Acceleration of 99 ingame. Was the meta with brian O dirscoll and Habanna
Shane is awesome! I loved playing EA Rugby and Rugby 08 was LEGENDARY! We need another good rugby game
You should react to Immanuel Feyi-Waboso
I will for sure! Thanks for the recommendation on Immanuel Feyi-Waboso
Cheers for the video..... did you recognise the player left on his bum at 8:07?
Massive love Craig! Was that Chabal?
@QSNgg the number 11 sliding past was the then current (2007) world player of the year, the amazing Brian Habana. Shane was the very next world player of the year (2008). I remember watching it at the time thinking it was a kinda passing of the torch moment!
Been asking for you to react to Shane for ages the guy was a beast and he beat his own 40 yard record the year he quit 💪
hahah I'm glad I could finally get the Shane react knocked out for you Richard. I appreciate you boss 💪🏽
@@QSNgg campese was also a fantastic player he was Dan carter when Dan carter was still in his daddies but sack 🤣 see you appreciate some of carter's kicks check out Paul thorburns record penalty kick watched that when I was in short shorts 🤣
Watch Gio Aplon, the first Cheslin Kolbe 💪
Gio is on my radar 100%
You should watch pro media 11a primary school vs bastion.
I'll check that out for sure!
04:05 (ish) the “hesitation” was a sidestep,something I’ve never understood american football players not doing. Surely it’s better to run around your opponent than into them? Also Stones is another quirk of the British use of imperial
measures. 14 pounds to a stone. You will almost never see a British person give their weight solely in pounds it’s very weird to hear it done like that.
We do it in football, but it's just more difficult due to the style and speed of the game
Thanks for the conversion on stones as well. That's really helpful!
@9:13 vs Chabal. An unfair contest if ever
I didn't realize that was Chabal. He stood no chance 🤣
Check out Arron Smith for the all blacks
I'll 100% check out Aaron Smith
The is no story about the socks because the colours of the Wales flag is red white and green
Thanks for letting me know about the socks. That makes a lot of sense. I didn't think of that when I was watching. I appreciate you!
try leigh halfpenny he is a slippery bastard in a good way
I'll check out Halfpenny for sure. Thanks for the recommendation Gareth!
the pocket rocket, go high on him and you'll regret it....
You said it perfectly! He would shake them off and keep going
David Campese is pronounced CAMP EASY
Thanks for the correct pronunciation on his name. I appreciate you Rudolph!
Please check out Jason Robinson !!!
Jason Robinson is on my radar for sure!
14lbs = 1 STONE.
Thanks for the conversion 🙌🏽
Do Eben Etzebeth
Here is my Eben Etzebeth video: ruclips.net/video/BqSqYHtDunU/видео.html
David camp-ee-zee.
Thanks for the correct pronunciation
Hi QSN make a reaction to the videos of SAM UNDERHILL the hitman
100% making a video of Sam Underhill!
One stone equals fourteen pounds
Thanks for the conversion on that! I appreciate you
Gio Aplon
Gio is on my list for sure!
Hi mate its wales not wells 😄.like the whales
Were the captions mispelled?
My dad knows shane
That's awesome!
14lb to the stone
Thanks for the conversion Tom ❤️
Green socks, look at the welsh flag.
Thanks for letting me know. It makes sense in hindsight. I didn't realize it when I was watching
I wish he was English
I can understand that! I'm going to check out more English legends as well 🙌🏽
Too small to play Rugby they said........
He showed them they were wrong. I love that!
Shanes washed sorry💀
Shane is the man! Who other than Shane do you think I should check out?
@@QSNgg johna lomu forsho
He Was Always told he was too small to play rugby.
He showed them! I love hearing he overcame the criticism
