Sir Clive Woodward has described Chris Robshaw as a fantastic player and captain following England's defeat to South Africa yesterday.
The 26-year-old admitted that he made the wrong call by deciding to kick at goal when England were awarded a penalty while trailing by four points.
The kick left England one point behind with just over a minute of the game left.
Woodward told BBC Sport: "Robshaw is a fantastic player, a fantastic captain. I expect him to be captain in the Six Nations.
"If they were going to go for goal they had to do that kick within about 10 to 15 seconds. If they'd done it really quickly then it is absolutely the right decision.
"Also, to be brutally honest, I don't think England looked like scoring a try against South Africa so the chances of England scoring a try in that two minutes were quite minimal."
Woodward led England to World Cup victory in Australia in 2003.
