Letting the ball bounce from the kick off, not test match standard stuff. I'd love to see the back of Jones.

Despite some nervy moments towards the end, they had enough due to their 1st half performance.
It'll keep the vultures from circling over EJ for now at least.

I’ll go on record now, feel free to bounce, we’ll win nothing with EJ as manager. We got away with a piss poor second half performance, it’s a trend now

Three Six Nations, including a Grand Slam, and a World Cup Final. England had only won one Six Nations in the previous twelve.
Other decent Rugby playing nations exist too.
Jones is a quality coach. The team are back in transition at the moment. Happy for him to stay another 7 years.

Well I took your advice
Also small punt on all four winning ..2 down 2 to go
If Scotland can give a reaction after last week, you've got a decent chance there, Lamie.
Springboks making 14 changes for today's game against Wales.
What would be the return on the small punt?

Yeah but apart from that what has he ever done for us!
There are two very good English coaches doing well with Ireland and France but Twickenham would look down on them because of their League roots.
It’s the national team and where possible I think that should apply to the coaches as well. Obviously no-one else thinks so, so I’ll shut up.

Although my teams are Harlequins and England, I tend to enjoy rugby as a sport first and foremost. So I'm not very emotional with England. I can see that he is a coach with good credentials. But that's because I don't get upset when they don't do well.
Rob Baxter is the obvious replacement when he does leave. But I'm not sure if he'd want it. He seems happy down in Devon.

3 down, 1 to go.
Must be a first …. all three southern hemisphere giants losing at home on the same weekend.

Not enough to retire on ..but certainly pay for a nice weekend away ..the England win is paying for a few nights out
Come on Scotland!
