Here's Jonny


There is a man who has more comebacks than Phil Mitchell and Dirty Den put together. Jonny Wilkinson is finally going to get his season debut against Northampton this weekend.
England’s winner in the 2003 World Cup final must be the unluckiest bloke to walk the planet, as he seems more injured probed than Jamie Redknapp or Darren Anderton. It is ludicrous. He has now recovered from the shoulder injury that has put him out for a summers worth of rugby, let us hope he fends well and shapely gets back into the England set, and recapture that form which won the heart of the public.
He may have lost his place, temporary, to new wonder kid Danny Cipriani but a fully fit and fledged Wilkinson will be an automatic starter. He is the only specialised scum-half to be included in Martin Johnson’s first elite squad. Plus he is the titleholder of the highest points six in test history during the six nations this term.
Newcastle Falcons will be glad that they have their star player back, but more importantly, he has to get prepared for England, as that is where you want your best players. Wilkinson get back on form and be injury free for at least a month and you will play a profitable role in the England set up for many years to come.
