3. Ronan O’Gara – Ireland
The greatest kicker in Irish Test history by a country mile. His 1,083 points in 128 appearances is nearly double that of David Humphreys in second spot. Not only sliced through the posts with penalties and conversions but landed some crucial drop-goals for the Emerald Isle, his three-pointer to win the 2009 Grand Slam in Cardiff being one to remember.
2. Diego Dominguez – Italy
Fully justifies third spot in the table for keeping Italian rugby afloat during choppy waters. Played for the Azzurri between 1991-2003 and amassed an incredible 983 points from just 74 appearances. The Argentine-born outside-half also played twice for the Pumas scoring 27 points. Retired in 2000, but was persuaded to return, playing on until 2003, as there was no heir apparent.
1. Jonny Wilkinson – England
There could only be one man to take this spot with Wilkinson slotting 1,179 points from 91 caps. And Jonny does have a 2003 World Cup winner’s medal to his name, one he richly deserved for coolness personified when landing the crucial drop-goal to seal victory over Australia in the final.
