    Eddie Jones is really feeling the pressure it seems,

    you saw his press conference too? he's not wrong though, its been said on here enough that the media is only interested in a negative spin

    Do you blame them? Eddie's talking about how "fantastic" things are, trying to gaslight everyone into thinking everything's "fantastic, mate", and they're quite rightly calling bullshit. Maybe if he was a bit more honest, and even humble, they might take it easier on him. He seems upset that the Aussie rugby media aren't acting as his PR agents.

    Hardly. He's doing this on purpose.

    Great stuff from Eddie. He really knows how to make headlines. If you were one of his players, you’d be lapping this up.

    It is getting really old this BS from Eddie, people see though all the deflection shit,I saw real signs of Eddie losing the plot in this interview, he is to easy to wind up by the media now they pushing him to bite.

    This shit from Eddie I have been watching for years but he looks rattled now.

    @Chris Agree to disagree. I don't know why he would be rattled. He has a 5 year contract - little pressure (he's been picked for the next World Cup cycle not this one) - and a great record at World Cups

    Coaches get sacked and don’t see out their cycles just ask Eddie he knows about getting the boot for under performing as a coach,
    He might not last those 5 years keep losing and pressure mounts,The idiot who pushed for him getting the job will probably go with him.
    Eddie has a history of falling of the pace as a coach with a team the longer he stays with them.

    It's a bit sad to see. I wanted Jones to do well. Hopefully he can turn it around and stop the media getting under his skin like they did. But maybe Jones time is up. Great or very good coach once but maybe time has caught up with him.

    Personally I prefer calm and emotional stability in a leader, not drama and reactiveness. His behaviour -whether genuine or a front - will be having an impact on his staff. Wouldn’t be surprised if the guy who quit had had enough. He was in the box with Eddie in one of the teams first games and appeared startled and didn’t look to appreciate Eddie throwing his ear phones or radio down at one stage.

    Watching that, my immediate thought was he'd been over-indulging on the turps.

    To be fair I thought some of the follow up questions around Quade were a bit stupid, that seemed to be the tipping point where he started getting annoyed at genuine questions.

    I do think Aussie are going to go well at the WC to be honest. I can see them getting to semis then who knows? One game away from a final.
