Imagine playing in a world cup final and losing. It must be disappointing but is that an excuse for bad manners? I think not.
Jonny Wilkinson deliberately snubbed the South African president on Saturday night.
He brushed the presidents hand away, refusing to shake hands – this smacks of bad manners, petulance and rudeness and certainly qualifies him for my nominee for the uncoolest rugby player on the planet.
It makes no difference whether one agrees with a politicians views or not, basic good manners should prevail.
This sort of behavior is certainly no example to the many millions of kids watching television.
What do you guys think?

If that happened it really is bad manners and also wins my vote as the uncoolest rugby player on the planet.
