Jones reveals final theory
Eddie Jones believes the success of England and South Africa in the World Cup is down to the strength of the countries’ domestic competitions.
Players from Leicester and Wasps, who met in this year’s Heineken Cup final, make up the majority of the world champions’ team, while the Springboks draw most of their talent from the Bulls and the Sharks, who came face to face in the 2007 Super 14 final.
