A bit of a long read, and nothing to really surpise anyone here, but it's good to give some history to the current shitshow

Sticking with Eddie for so long to be rid of him just before the world cup is one of the worst decisions a governing body has made in recent rugby history. RFU need a clear out at the top

Especially since his entire focus was on the world cup at the expense of everything else, presumably with the backing of the rfu.

Eddie Jones had a good win record for Enland. You're allowed to have a bad season. They should've let him go to the RWC. The RFU made this bed.
