Interesting! Wonder if it'll be a bit to much pressure for him.

Even though he's been "away" from rugby for quite a few months, he did look tremendously out of his depth on the weekend, albeit vs a much better Tigers side. He won't be the same captain as Johnson or Dallaglio were; I personally thought that they commanded the side and demanded 100% from each of them. Not saying that Wilkinson won't be respected by his fellow players, but I can't see England being the same sort of team on the pitch as they were when Johnson was at the helm.

dont think he has the "dog" in him to knuckle down when times are hard as the previous captains have been able to do.

dont think he''ll be success as captain. as bin said, he wont have the dog for when they need it. everyone was terrified of johnson, therefore respected him and gave him 100%. I didnt think that the coke addict was a good captain, but thats just my oppinion. Johnny aint loud enough, aggressive enough. Something big has happened to england i think for mr coke to retire just having the captaincy, woodward quitting seems strange. But hats off to woodward. He knows that the spine of the england team is finished, so he's finished like he has, on a high. i think they will struggle in 6 nations. |

i know he's the best player, but that doesnt always make a captain. captaincy is all about leadership etc. has he got that? will he still be respected by other team mates?silly question, but thats all everyone goes on about is jonny won the world cup. theres gotta be one or two players ready stir the camp.after all its a team game.

yes, but thats what every 10 does. thats one of the outside halfs roles. personally, i dont think he has the leadership skills thats all. it could brake him as a player, and could also lose respect very quickly if he doesnt deliver as captain.

If I were wilko I would have never accepted captaincy. He's no natural leader on the pitch, just does not have enough steel and character to lead england through this crisis. I can't see him being motivation and inspiration enough for his team mates once the going gets too tough for england.
