Wilko: ROG a man for the big calls and big shots

JONNY WILKINSON andRonan O’Gara have a lot incommon, having been the mainstays of their respective national sides for the last decade before finding themselves under threat of being consigned to history by younger, more extrovert fly-halves.

Yet while Wilkinson has graciously accepted he is now England’s second-choice behind Toby Flood, O’Gara is still doing his best to hold off the challenge of Jonathan Sexton.

And many have criticised Declan Kidney for bringing Sexton on for O’Gara after 50 minutes of Saturday’s game in Cardiff.
