Jonny Wilkinson fit for Aussie-NZ tour
Toulon five-eighth Jonny Wilkinson is fit to go on England's summer tour to Australia and New Zealand, his French club announced Wednesday.
Wilkinson was forced off the field during Toulon's 28-21 loss to Cardiff Blues in the European Challenge Cup final on Sunday.
But tests have revealed nothing more menacing than a badly bruised back which will, however, be painful for up to three weeks to come, according to Toulon's medical staff.
England play the Australian Barbarians (June 8 and 15), Australia (June 12 and 19) and the New Zealand Maori (June 23) on their summer tour.
