When has Richard Hill ever failed to put his body on the line? This is a man who puts his head in places most people wouldnt put their feet. The unsung hero of Englands world cup win, England looked unconvincing until Hill's return for the semi against France. Irreplacable, i hope for the game's sake that he stays within the sport when he retires, but whatever his plans i and his legions of fans wish him the best

As an Englishman, I really hope Sarries are victorious against Munster, but I think it is a big ask. What ever the result. Richard Hill can hold his head up high. He has in my opinion been a fantastic servant to English Rugby and has been one of my favorite players of all time! When England talk about having inspirational players around the younger players, Richard Hill always leads by example. With his iminent retirement, maybe Johnson could have a word in his ear?!
Richard Hill has been one of the most complete rugby players in the modern era!

This guys needs to be involved in the new England set up.
He has been the most consistant performer for years, ask any of the world cup winning squad who the unsung hero was they will all say Hill.
No coaching experience but a wealth of knowledge within the game and has fought the toughest fights.
A true legend, MJ needs to get him in the backroom staff.
