ahhh Johnny we miss you :(. I think he recieves way to much fault on a losing england team when he plays and that isnt fair. He still is a solid number 10 and deserves to be given a chance again.
It looks like Wide, because of the bend, but i took that clip from the highlights of the game (yes, it was 2003 semifinal), so i doubt the put a miss kick on the highlights.
How about Mr World Cup Winner with a final minute right footed drop goal and World Cup Vice Champion, AND Mr Top Point Scorer of all time, over Mr World Cup Quarter Finalist...
oh well, i'm pretty sure they put it in because it was blowing a gale and raining hard, which spoiled the kicking a bit towards the end. doesnt matter tho
They're both fantastic players with different attributes (even Mr Carter, along with Flood, missed a few kicks Saturday). It would be interesting, however, to have seen Johnny play for the Crusaders and get a comparatively armchair ride from their pack and Dan play for the Falcons where, nothing personal here, their pack couldn't look after a kitten! The Boks have some phenomenal players, Jean DV is the TOP world player IMO, could watch him all day, Steyn? Now he IS average!
i read an intrestin point tht wilko hasnt even peaked as a playa yet due to the amount of time hes spent on the sidelines so if he can get himslef fit we cud see a lot more of him
whats impressive is over 1000 test points, and landing a drop goal for the world cup. Not attempting a drop goal from that far out, how often does he land them, how often does he needlessly give the ball away
Wilko in his prime was only better defensively. Wilko has never been a complete flyhalf..His place kicking and territorial kicking are all he has got. Dan Carter can do everything..
well, the kick at goal on 1:24 looks like a miss to me, you cant see the linesmen, but if that was the semi final against france 2003, im pretty sure that one goes wide
England are on the road back!!!! and Wilkinson will be there, 78th minute v Italy BOSH!!!!!!!! Guess you were all talking Shit!!! Funny That! Legend Lion Heart
also dan carter is certainly not a better player: who is the better kicker? who is the better passer? who is the better tackler? who is the better play maker? who is the better general? JUST JONNY!
I still can't believe people all the boullshit I'm reading. Tell Dan to win a world cup, then we'll start the discussion. Besides wilko won the World Cup practically all by himself with a much worse team that the Dan Carter's losing NZ team.
a tribute to johnny wilkinson.....it should have been pictures of hospital wards and physio rooms because that's where he's spent most of his career. he may be a record holder but i don't rate him as a player. neil jenkins was better.
lol how can u over rate the higest international points scorer .. the higest no. of drop goals in internationals last time i checked he was top of the premiership scorers ..ever1 is under him
wtf u on about steyn lmaooo just coz he can hit a drop kick from that far dnt mean shit his conversion % is shite so your comment is pointless wilkinson best 10 by a long way he might not have the running skills of carter but hes not too farr behind everything else passing tackling kicking commanding his back line wilko does better
hes a good player mate.. but the best player of all time? you must be dreaming. hes not even the best in the world for his position. dan carter played him on saturday and even though dan didnt play as good as he normally does, he still completely outclassed wilkinson.
I am merely calling a spade a spade..For you to call johnny better, shows how little you know about rugby or lack of maturity with respect to the game..
Jonny will always be a legend hes done more in his caeer than carters dreamed of.

@siyabulela365 I'm english, and I totally agree with you..

I can accept that he is a better player currently. But Wilkinson in his prime anyday over Carter.
i read an intrestin point tht wilko hasnt even peaked as a playa yet due to the amount of time hes spent on the sidelines so if he can get himslef fit we cud see a lot more of him
hes a great tackler
i think Ma'a Nonu is the top world player theese days

"Martin Johnson is a shit coach"
i agree with ya
y dus he put his hands lyk tht b4 he takes a conversion? (no disrespect to his abilities intended, in my opinion this man is a rugby legend)
wats wiv the pom jibe u australian aswell ..dint fink so
England are on the road back!!!! and Wilkinson will be there, 78th minute v Italy BOSH!!!!!!!! Guess you were all talking Shit!!! Funny That! Legend Lion Heart
@siyabulela365
Martin johnson = absolute legend. Coach and player. No argument .
hi,was the try in 2 53 validated?
lol i agree with djidibson06
why in a tribute to wilkinson do you show him miss a kick!!!!!??
also dan carter is certainly not a better player: who is the better kicker? who is the better passer? who is the better tackler? who is the better play maker? who is the better general?
JUST JONNY!

carter and o'gara arent english. lawl
lol how can u over rate the higest international points scorer .. the higest no. of drop goals in internationals last time i checked he was top of the premiership scorers ..ever1 is under him
lol even though i support england very much, i agree that he is bad coach.
wtf u on about steyn lmaooo just coz he can hit a drop kick from that far dnt mean shit his conversion % is shite so your comment is pointless wilkinson best 10 by a long way he might not have the running skills of carter but hes not too farr behind everything else passing tackling kicking commanding his back line wilko does better
