The Newcastle Falcons star was on target with seven from nine shots at goal and there was an injury time try for Dan Luger to put further gloss on a fine performance. Wilkinson kicked three first half penalties to take a 9-6 lead into the break and he added four more in an England controlled second period. Mike Catt chipped in with a drop goal and in injury time, with the Springbok pressing for a consolation try, Bobby Skinstad threw a loose pass and Luger intercepted and scorced away for a try.
