[QUOTE="Jashay, post: 1024099, member: 78812"] I looked into the numbers behind this at the end of last year, and Jones has generally been really good at bringing in new forwards and really, really bad at bringing in new backs. You can almost make an entire pack of players who debuted under Jones and are clearly still favoured: Genge, Sinckler, Itoje, Curry, Underhill, Earl/Wilson... I could perhaps squeeze Cowan Dickie in; he played a friendly under Lancaster but EJ was manager for the 2016 6N for his first competitive game, I think. Ewels isn't really 'favoured', but another EJ starter. I think Earl is the only one there without at least 20 caps. But in terms of backs who debuted under Jones the top choices in terms of caps are Daly (50), T'eo (16), Heinz (13), Robson (10), Cokanasiga (9). It's pretty horrendous really. [/QUOTE]
