Is Steve Black retarded?

Because he has looked after himself so well, I could see him playing on until he is 38, 39, 40," he told BBC 5 Live.

Wilkinson has suffered more than a dozen major injuries since kicking England to World Cup glory in Sydney five years ago.

And Black believes the fitness and form the fly-half showed in the three full games he played for Newcastle this season before his injury at Gloucester on 30 September is evidence he can prolong his career.

"Jonny is cerebral as well as physical," Black explained. "He will continue to get better physically until he is 32, 33.

It's astonishing. He only needs his legs to work to make his contribution. They don't even have to run, just jog three or four steps, and he still can't stay fit.

Still, he can be like the James Dean of Yawnion. He can retire and they can all carry on pretending he was some kind of Superhuman talent, and, if not for his absence, England would have never lost a game.
