He's also a big time prick.
He delivers when it's necessary. You can't argue against that.
Agreed, but he's already kicked us to one world cup, and is on his way to doing it again.
Why
Not kicking that well but putting over the pressure kicks late on.
Robinson was a class above today. Wasn't a game for flair, but the French got no change from him all night.
Pretty good for someone who retired three games ago

Its the fact Jonny went through hell for 3 and a half years of injury hell to this he really is a class act. We can all argue who is the best fly half in the world but no one can argue who is the best under pressure.
wikinson is one hell of a player. did you see that tackle on chabel?
Brave or stupid it was a great tackle.
Josh Lewsey's the man absolutely awesome...!
So, if he kicks us to another world cup. Should he be knighted? I would say yes, am i going over the top?
explain?
No your not. If he wins it for us on Saturday, he should definately be 'Sir Johnny Wilkinson'
Shame he is a big doubt for the final.
Argentina Argentina Argentina
He's not really done anything amazing, kicking wise, at this world cup. Our kicking against France was actualy pretty shite, and played us out of the game for large parts
England are just plain refusing to feck off, much to the annoyance of France and Australia
The kicking has been fairly shite, agreed, but the big kicks, when it really counts and puts maximum pressure on the opponant, he has not failed in producing, that marks out the greats for me.
Shame he can't stay fitter for longer really.
He'd have had to go some to miss that kick yesterday. Dead centre and well inside the French half
The lads got some guts though, no denying that. He typifies the England team in a way; Not a patch on what they were, but gutsy as hell
