Would be great if we can knock them out of the RWC. Give him a good going away present.
ah, we're not real good at knocking his teams out of anything
He would rather knock the ABs out of the next RWC than actually win the thing.
How many games has Eddie Jones coached against ABs and how many wins does he have? He has 2 major wins in SFs. Pretty good going. But outside of that?
The 2001 and 02 Bledisloe wins against us still irk. I think Eddie broke the Wallabies Carisbrook hoodoo in one of those years.
Very much riding on Rod Macqueen's coattails at that time (and beforehand at the Brumbies)
A bit like Rennie riding Fosters at the Chiefs in 2012 and 13…
Good post

@act-crusader so true.
Also like Chris Boyd getting the credit for Hammett's hard work.
Bit this beats it

@booboo England won their first 17 Tests in a row in 2016 and 2017 under Eddie that was a superb achievement. They lost 5 in a row between February and June 2018 and slipped from 2nd to 6th in the World rankings.
He has a slightly worse than 50% record against the ABs which is much better than most international coaches and has won 7 out of 7 against Australia as England coach which suggests he is bloody good at stopping Antipodean sides from playing their fluent, expansive game. That said, he only has a 50% record as England coach against Scotland, a 50% record against South Africa and a 63% record against Ireland. I suspect the way to beat Eddie's teams is to play for territory and look to bully them on set piece if you can.
Sounds like the way you beat the ABs 😉

It's a winning formula against most teams to be fair. But it certainly worked well enough in 2018, where our wet weather kicking was pretty good and Brodie destroyed their line out in the 2nd half. We still had to get a bit lucky to scrape through, though.

Dan Carter never seemed to be affected when his groin was posted on a few billboards around the country

Eddie Jones: My rules for England coaches – and why I don’t care if we hate each other

THanks for that! Some of the articles end up on Herald, but not many
"World Rugby has confirmed it will carry out a review into the behaviour of water-carriers and other support staff as well as issuing a written warning to Australia head coach Dave Rennie." Good news!

Good article on Nick Dolly, the (aussie) England hooker but with a very Oz background
I only came to the UK to visit my grandparents — now I’m an England international
