Jones promises ‘brutal’ contest

AUSTRALIA coach Eddie Jones wants his side to match England’s physicality at Twickenham on Saturday and vowed: “We will be brutal.”

A year ago this week, in the World Cup final, Australia attempted every trick in the book to disrupt England’s superior scrum - delaying engagement, moving closer to reduce the force of England’s tight five - and it worked.

Referee Andre Watson repeatedly penalised England and Elton Flatley booted the Wallabies back into the game from 14-5 down at the interval to force extra-time.
