England players told RFU chief that sacking Eddie Jones was ‘right decision’
PLAYER-BACKED: Former England coach Eddie Jones during the training session at Twickenham, London.
The Rugby Football Union chief executive Bill Sweeney has claimed that England players told him they felt it was the “right decision” to sack Eddie Jones as head coach nine months before the World Cup.
No members of the England squad have publicly supported the decision to remove Jones from his post after seven years in the job, so close to the World Cup, but Sweeney has said that privately, those that he spoke to endorsed change.
