Barnes aims to show Wilko how

WALLABY fly-half Berrick Barnes was a wide-eyed schoolboy when Jonny Wilkinson broke Wallaby hearts with the extra-time drop goal to win England the 2003 World Cup.

He watched the match on his grandmother’s couch in the Queensland mining town of Kingaroy and a few weeks later, hungry to pick up tips from the world’s best, he went out to buy Wilkinson’s books and DVD.

This afternoon, the 22-year-old will go toe-to-toe with Wilkinson in a World Cup quarter-final in front of 55,000 fans at the imposing Stade Velodrome.
