Danny Care’s brutally honest response when asked about his international future

#4. Ma’a Nonu

CARE SAID: “I’ve played against Ma’a quite a few times. Firstly, he’s such a handful to rein in. Just look at him, he’s 17 odd-stone and unbelievably powerful but he’s so much more than just a crash ball merchant.

“He really worked on his offloading game and he reads the ball well. He’s a real specimen and will happily run over you all day but off the pitch, he’s really nice guy, the first to shake your hand and buy you a beer. He’s a great lad.

“I’d love to be his size for a couple of games, it would be a lot of fun.”

#3. Jonny Wilkinson

CARE SAID: “What can I say? There’s no doubt he was one of the world’s best players so to play with him was a privilege. I was quite young when I was in the England set-up with him and as you’d expect, he’s a really decent guy, a real gent. He’s so good with the players coming through, helping them settle into the squad.

“He’s done everything and won everything, Heineken Cup, World Cup, you name it. Even now he’s still one of the best around, yet he’s still so humble and hard-working. I can’t give him enough praise.

“He’s not only idolized in England but by players all over the world and that shows what a special player he is.”
