England's World Cup-winning fly-half Jonny Wilkinson has announced his decision to retire from international rugby at the age of 32.
He has 91 caps for England, as well as playing six times for the British and Irish Lions.

Thanks J.W . You played with pride and made us proud, one of the best kickers in our history. Thanks for the memories!

Guess it had to come at some point soon around about now (aftermath of the WC and all) but sad news. True Legend of the modern England era.

Ihow does Jonny compare to Dusty Hare? But thanks Jonny we will miss seeing you in the Six Nations in 2012.

Thank you Jonny for all the memories, you have given us at club and national level.

All the best to JW in retirement. Heard a report about him on the radio yesterday and all the contributors were saying how modest and unassuming he is. He always kept a low profile off the pitch and never courted unwarranted publicity. Good on you Jonny.

Johnny's the best flyhalf England has ever had..

Just think it'll be strange not seeing Jonny in the world Cup in 2015. I know England have capable replacements in Owen Farrell and Toby Flood, but I'm sure they both how hard an act Jonny is to follow, for both his sportsmanship and dedication and I hope both will show the same in the future and beyond.

In his very last game Jonny scored 15 points out of Toulon's 18 to help them beat Castres 18-10 in the final Top 14 competition.

And apparently as a tribute to him God Save The Queen was played after the game and the home French crowd sung along to it
