[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1031991, member: 56232"] I agree, I'm not arguing Jones should go now but I am saying he needs to show he is going to turn it around and he no longer has the option to throw away another year. Bearing in mind Hartley was dropped after a long term injury and it was actually Gatland who chose George to start first, not Jones. Had that combination not happened, George may not have replaced Hartley. Winning the summer games will not be good enough (like winning the AN Cup really shouldn't have been good enough). There has got to be some sign of progress, some sign he is going to act on the problems and actually has an idea of how to fix it. If Jones simply does the same old or we only just scrape some wins, I don't think that will be enough. There is a very real possibility we could lose 2 of our 3 games. If that happens, I can't see Jones surviving. It's understandable that teams have peaks and troughs but when that trough is equalling the records for the worst performances by a team in decades, you burn through any credit you had very fast.
