The incident took place at the Coyote Ugly bar in Cardiff last December as Williams and his brother celebrated a victory for their nation over South Africa
THREE bouncers were convicted today of attacking former Wales rugby star Shane Williams and leaving his brother unconscious.
The incident took place outside the Coyote Ugly nightclub in Cardiff in December last year after the Williams brothers celebrated their nation's victory over South Africa.
Dean Flowers, 32, and Dave Wing, 53, were found guilty of affray, while James, 26, pleaded guilty to affray.
A fourth bouncer, Haydn Morgan, 42, was cleared of affray by the jury.
Cardiff Crowd Court saw CCTV footage showing Williams, 41, being grabbed across the floor and then his brother Dean being attacked outside.
The court also heard fans were asking for selfies with the 2008 World Rugby Player of the Year when a stranger attempted to headbutt his younger brother.
But the two Williams men and friends Rhodri Williams and Stewart Herbert were kicked out by security staff, three of whom then repeatedly kicked and punched the group in an alleyway.
Wing then held Dean Williams in a "choke hold", refusing to let go until he passes out, despite Williams repeatedly tapping.
The footage also appears to show Shane Williams - who scored 290 points in 87 appearances for Wales - having his jacket ripped from him by James, the former rugby star being thrown down a staircase and punches being thrown by bouncers.
Judge Recorder Duncan Bould said: "This was an incident of serious public disorder."
Prosecutor Clare Wilks added: "Aled James [is] seen repeatedly punching one of the Williams group while they're on the floor.
"Dean Flowers repeatedly punches one of the males pushed against a wall. After the assault he's seen flexing his fingers and inside the club he's laughing and joking."
The three men will be sentenced at a later date.
