[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1028023, member: 73144"] Unless he decides he’s had enough we can probably take it as read that Jones will be with us until 2023. So what constitutes success for him? The first half of his reign was overall a success. After the 2015 shambles he could hardly have failed to improve things but he got us to a RWC final via a GS and a long unbeaten run. The highs were however punctuated by 2018 and a number of poor, but winning, performances. In this cycle we’ve won one 6N and then there’s been this year with some pretty rank performances in between. If we buy into the 4 year plan that WT and others have mentioned then everything is geared to the RWC. And that was what Jones himself originally asked to be judged on. We’ll get out of the group in 2023, so everything depends on up to 3 knockout matches. It’s a couple of years out, but knowing what we do about the draw, and the state of our team and other contenders, what should we expect Jones’ team to deliver? And how much do results / performances in the interim matter? [/QUOTE]
