[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1111889, member: 56232"] Jones record is very heavily skewed by his first 4 years, particularly his first 2. I did a bit of number crunching. This is Jones' win % against T1 opposition in the seasons following the WC: 2019-2020 80% 2020-2021 63% 2021-2022 55% 2022 - Current 0% Admittedly only 4 games into 2022 but that is a clear downward trend. Considering 2018 was also terrible, it seems 2019 was the exception, not the rule. England have been in decline for 4 years now and absolutely nothing suggested Jones was going to reverse that. Couple that with Jones also having to his name the record worst 6N performance by England, the worst points difference in the 6N ever by England, worst points conceded against Scotland, Wales, France and some other negative records, he is dragging England down. The Joe Schmidt cards up sleeve defence doesn't fly, keeping some thing secret doesn't involve putting in abysmal performances. Jones was done, he should have gone over a year ago. [/QUOTE]
