The one thing that most people say about England coach Eddie Jones is that he is honest. I don’t mean he always sees the other side and is willing to be balanced and fair at all times; he can and does defend his players from a partisan point of view when he thinks it necessary. No, I mean honest deep down; when it comes to telling players about their faults; when it comes to making the tough decisions.
Well it’s now time for Jones to be brutally honest and though this might appear an exaggerated reaction to only England’s third loss since Jones arrived, the reasons for it are well founded.
