Liam Williams has faced many daunting tasks during a glittering career but is currently getting to grips with a new challenge – being unemployed.
Despite 98 Test appearances - including five for the British and Irish Lions - and two Six Nations titles with Wales, as well as European and domestic titles with Saracens and Scarlets, the full-back is without a job as the new season looms.
The 34-year-old ended last season on a short-term contract with Saracens and last month had a spell training with his former club Cardiff.
But he is now working alone, with some assistance from the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) medical team, at the national team base in the Vale of Glamorgan.
In a week in which 38-year-old former Leicester City footballer Jamie Vardy insisted "age is just a number" having joined Serie A club Cremonese, Williams insists he also has plenty to offer.
"I've still got quite a bit left and I'd like to get back on the horse for another year or two so I can end my career on a high," said Williams, who was a Six Nations starter in January.
