Who mocked? I think at the time 1/2p was better, and I at least said if Williams worked on his game, he'd be pushing for a spot. He's improved drastically in the last 12-18 months, the biggest improvement being cutting out the cheap shots. The best back 3 is still 1/2p, North and Williams, now I'd put Williams at 15 if I'm honest. Henson is done mate, he really is. Great player no doubt but times moved on. If you drop Roberts, you lose one of your only ball carriers as the pack is lacking them. I like Scott Williams and thought he would be worth a go at 12 but he got the chance against the Chiefs and he was dog shit-probably the worst player on the park for me-do you reward him with a start in the next game? The main issue I see with us is lack of set piece and ball carriers in the pack-it all comes from there, without them we have to use backs to get go forward ball-ie Roberts and North. If we had a ball that was coming back quickly against retreating defences then elusive runners would be great, but you can't expect players to find gaps that aren't there....

Noise, randomness, ballistic uncertainty.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
At least you have been competitive.
Pretty much spot on this. I don't think that players are pushed enough through the age grades and become complacent, which can and has affected development. A big killer in Wales is lack of competition which is compounded by Gatlands selection policy-you can play bloody awful but will continue to be picked regardless, often this is down to the drop off in talent but sometimes it's just stupidity. Wales on the whole can expect to field 8-10 class players and 7-5 who are simply not good enough, when they play out of their skins, well test the better teams but no more. We're coming out of a great generation of players, but the cupboard is bare behind them and some are aging. Who replaces AWJ and Charteris? We've still not replaced our Lions front row, though Lee and Evans look like they could become world class one day.

You create gaps yourself, NZ was doing it off first phase set piece due to ball skill and speed. We have gone for size over skill, now we are as big and strong as SH players, yet our actual skills have deserted us.
