    All the other top coaches seem to respect him. The public perception is pretty much down to his never ending desire to stir.
    That is a real stirring as well not just a media thing. Look at the numbers of players used yet he still pretty much returns to his “favourites” quickly. That can be thought of as searching and not knowing but I reckon it is a tactic to keep his preferences on their toes.
    Then there is coaching staff. He is always looking for different views and voices but they can be seen from the outside as not being able to get along.

    It's paywalled so you'll need to explain what makes it story of the weekend.

    @Nepia Eddie Jones coached some under 10s in a London park with massive enthusiasm for over an hour in freezing conditions. No obvious links between him and the club. He had walked there and then walked off at the end. Some of the parents weren't sure it was actually him.

    @Stargazer

    That’s a great story and reminds me of Jerry Collins turning out for Bideford 2nd XV when he was in the area.

    Especially as under 10s is usually Sunday, so the poor souls get a double dose.

    @booboo especially with the goal posts in the background, they were probably there to play soccer football!

    I hate myself for siding with the Walrus.

    Does Sinfield actually have pedigree? Good move to get more coverage with BBC though. They're obsessed with him.

    @Bones Sinfield is Leicester Tiger's defence coach at the moment.

    Steve Borthwick's superb record as an Assistant Coach to Eddie Jones and more recently as a Head Coach speaks for itself.

    I met him a couple of times when he was at Saracens and liked him. Knowledgable and passionate about the game, a very decent bloke, a bit shy. I wonder what the media will make of him. I can't believe his press conferences will be anything like as entertaining as Eddie's.

    Sinfield will hopefully do for England what Edwards did for Wales and does for France

    This could be the masterstroke that takes them to the the next level
