Fans pick the 3 best and 3 worst England Rugby players of all-time

BEST: #2: Jonny Wilkinson – 24%

A player who led by example and the kind of man you would always want alongside you in the trenches when the chips are down. Would never ask someone to do something he wouldn’t do himself. Captained the Lions on two tours, including the triumphant 1997 trip to South Africa, but he will always be remembered as the man presented with the 2003 World Cup.
