That makes it even more exciting.“The key to the consistency is the fact all the players are happy. Because of that you want to play well for the team year on year. “I think there is a different mood,” Williams says. In June 2017, Lambeth-born Harry had been chosen for his first England tour to Argentina, having already played for the national students’ side. “I don’t hear the end of it when they come down here and back in a day. I really want to go and have a good crack at it.”First and foremost, though, Exeter have a Premiership semi-final home draw to earn. **Harry Williams of Exeter Chiefs appeared before an independent disciplinary panel today. When you get older you thicken out a bit, don’t you?”Prior to his stints with Loughborough Students, Nottingham and Jersey, he also spent seven months living and playing in north Auckland where he lived above a gym and had a job cleaning a bakery.
He’s very diligent and passionate about what he’s doing. RugbyPass is the premier destination for rugby fans across the globe, with the best news, analysis, shows, highlights, podcasts, documentaries, live match & player stats, live blog feeds, and in some territories live streaming of the world's greatest rugby tournaments all in HD. I have Twitter but I don’t really (engage). It’s quite an organic thing that gets created over time,” said Williams, shedding insight on the mechanics of an enviable inner sanctum that has Exeter nine points clear despite Sunday’s surprise home loss to Wasps.“He [Baxter] has just allowed that process to occur without any regulation. Reaching a fourth consecutive decider is well within their grasp.“It’s weird. “Last year we were very excited; there was a little bit of shock and awe. He joined Exeter Chiefs from Jersey Reds ahead of the 2015–16 season. That’s all I’ll need to know. Harry Williams 1st Oct 1991 1.91m/126kg Tighthead Prop.
The son of a bricklayer and a landscape gardener from Lancashire and Lincolnshire respectively, he grew up around Crystal Palace, played youth rugby for Old Elthamians and went to school in Croydon with England squad members Elliot Daly and Marland Yarde.All three, along with Harlequins’ George Merrick, played together in the Whitgift side that won the Under-18 Schools Cup at Twickenham and his parents Nick and Sue still live in south London. All rights reserved. History may now be about to repeat itself. With long hair and tattoos, he’s a character whose bubbly individualism has been a lightning rod for those wanting to take a pop at anyone daring to be different.“I have probably got a little bit of gyp about being gay or something like that [he’s not as it happens]. Now, following three successive final appearances and one title, the club is a beacon of consistency that has left some longer established rivals trailing way behind. When I was playing in the Champo I always believed I could play in the Prem. Everyone was outraged but I think change is good.”Moving to Devon – he lives in the village of Aylesbeare with team-mates Sam Hill, Alec Hepburn and Stu Townsend – has certainly worked out so far.
The 6ft 3in Williams was once in the Wasps academy but has not always been the scrummaging colossus he is now. “I don’t reckon they’d be much into me backpacking or staying in Amazonian villages. From day one coming in from Jersey he’s done a lot of extras. “No, but we did have a handball module.
When I finished school I was probably 110kg. The league-leading Chiefs did a nifty number on their struggling hosts; then the keyboard warriors had their tuppence worth, getting stuck in in such an ugly way that the wounded Tigers felt compelled to report their online abusers to the police. They have been there so long, so you definitely get that feeling of the players who have been before and created it but you’re still adding to it.“I also think we have quite a young team so we’re not hampered by our past, we’re not trying to push on to do stuff we have done before because everything we’re doing is pretty new for us. It’s as if my mum’s been to Belgium.”As it happens, Old Elthamians have already produced one massive England prop, the similarly dry-humoured Andrew Sheridan.
Within three months of his first league start he was playing in a Premiership final; now, with Dan Cole and Kyle Sinckler on Lions duty, he has every chance of an England cap. I don’t really know what the solution really is, but ring-fencing the Premiership isn’t the answer.“Some grounds down in the Championship can seem a little bit empty and a little bit dead, but most of them, even if they have only a small crowd, do actually generate quite a good atmosphere… but I suppose you have to get more people interested in watching rugby so the crowds can be bigger.“You also need more initial funding to finance the teams which is actually impossible, the RFU are already trying to cut back costs. I don’t think we’re the bookies’ favourites but who cares. The powerful Williams is a rare breed: a big man who does not conform to some people’s stereotypical views of prop forwards. Exeter’s Harry Williams: ‘The idea of international rugby is forming a bit more’ The England scrum coach, Neal Hatley, will also be present and, beneath the quirky humour, Williams is ambitious enough to feel he could cope at Test level.“I do believe that. We understand the task ahead and I feel like we just want to ramp up, use every game as a springboard, an opportunity to go on to another level.“The aim with Exeter is to win the Premiership and then to get selected for the World Cup would be a dream come true, it would be quite surreal. Harry Williams had been attending school in England, but the Welsh region has now snapped up the youngster on a long-term deal as part of their Parc Y Scarlets academy programme. He’s not just someone who rocks up at training, runs around a bit with the lads and then goes out and plays. That is the word, you get institutionalised whereas I have been in other walks of life where it hasn’t always been like this, it hasn’t been all cushy where the club get everything done for you and you have all the extras from being at these clubs like Exeter. I wasn’t particularly big or particularly good when I was young.
