[QUOTE="Aout, post: 449770, member: 39372"] Disagree, Wilko is much more than this. He's a nice guy on and off the pitch (I already said that in an other post), and this is something England really needs. With the likes of Ashton, Hartley and their friends, they need a guy who stays calm and quiet, who can keep his mouth shut for 80 minutes. This is probably one of the main reason people like him. He's just a nice guy who enjoys playing rugby. He had a poor game against Argentina, but considering he didn't play much with England (he wasn't in the starting XV many times in 2011, was he ?) and he plays with a pair of centers which is A. changing quite often (Banahan, Hape, Flutey, Tindall, Tuilagi) and B. not the best in the world, you can't really blame him. He deserves an other chance, especially since Flood is far from being the next Daniel Carter. I'm not a "hardcore" Wilko fan (tho I do appreciate him), I just think that he has been forgotten too quickly by the English, and he's not the rusty guy you tend to describe. [/QUOTE]
