#1. Martin Johnson (England)
Iconic England legend Martin Johnson is widely regarded as one of the greatest locks and captains to have ever played the game. He famously led England to glory at the 2003 Rugby World Cup and also skippered the British & Irish Lions in 1997 and 2001.
He is also the only player to have ever led the elite tourists twice, winning three of his six tests as Skipper. In a glittering career, Johnson also was a part of two Grand Slam-winning England sides in 1995 and again in 2003.
Did you know? Johnson was awarded an OBE by The Queen in 1997 but later honoured with a CBE in the aftermath of England’s Rugby World Cup triumph in 2003
