UNCOVERED: England s george williams insists everyone else made me look good - Caught on Camera

GEORGE WILLIAMS insists his England team-mates make him look good but there’s no doubt he’s got his mojo back.

Warrington’s half-back endured a torrid time in club colours this year, misfiring as badly as the St James’ Park PA system which blew to ruin Saturday’s World Cup opening ceremony.

And even though Kaiser Chiefs’ pre-match show was cut short by those technical gremlins, dynamic Williams made sure the party got going with the underdogs’ brilliant ten-try rout of much-fancied Samoa.

He scored one try, created two more and when he wasn’t running into the heart of freaked-out opponents was kicking them to death.
