« The Geoff Hurst of rugby | | Gone but never forgotten »

A privilege

Former England maverick Austin Healey provides his take on Jonny Wilkinson's career in the Daily Mirror.

"History will fondly remember Jonny Wilkinson as the Geoff Hurst of rugby – the man who kicked England to World Cup glory.

It will also view him as the most famous rugby player of the modern era and the best kicker of all time.

He has probably been the most professional, in terms of sacrifice and dedication. Certainly in the top three, with World Cup-winning team-mates Neil Back and Richard Hill."
