‘Traitor’ Jones to help Boks

EDDIE JONES has been confirmed as technical advisor to the South Africa national side until the end of their World Cup campaign.

The former Australia coach, who was at the helm of the Wallabies during their 2003 World Cup final defeat, fills the post which was left vacant following the appointment of Rassie Erasmus as the professional coach to Western Province Rugby.

Andy Marinos, the manager of national teams at SA Rugby, believes the appointment of Jones will be beneficial for the Springboks.
