[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 914030, member: 70552"] The fact that Jones knows the country next year is a big plus and one that will keep him in the job imo. Getting a new head coach at this stage in the cycle would set England further back. Like Lancaster was Jones will be ultimately judged on next year’s RWC. Yes, there was all the silliness regarding replicating the travel time this autumn, but I, personally, just don’t see who else at this point, could make a dramatic improvement as head coach. 2016 and 2017 were papering over cracks as the Squidgy Rugby vid I posted up explained. Yes, England need an attack coach, as this year we were clueless in attack and it showed. As well as defence (is Mitchell set to replace Gustard?). Right now I am personally writing off England’s chances next year to actually win the WWE trophy. Too many doubts on combinations, game plans a and b and that’s not even getting to too few caps in key positions. Chieka, like Jones, are the best options right now for Australia and England because there are few alternatives. Post RWC there will bound to be a clear out of coaches - either forced or coaches walking away. [/QUOTE]
