Australia were going nowhere. The structural issues have been there for over a decade, something Eddie had already spoken about the last time he got sacked. He ripped the band aid off at the last WC and it didn't work, but let's see if any of those young players are still around in 4 years.
Jim is just quite the most brilliant interviewer...knows when to listen, and has a way of extracting the right responses. His line of questioning is always spot on.
Yeah, but that's because he loves the game, and respects his guests. Have him interview Bill Beaumont, or someone else that actually needs and deserves a kick on the zip... then we may actually see if he is all that. In this format, yes! I agree.
Australia Pre Eddie (in chronological order) all away from home Beat Scotland by 1 point, lose to France by 1 point, lose to Italy by 1 point, lose to Ireland by 3 points, beat Wales by 5 points Eddie Jones comes in - Lose to SA 43-12, lose to Argentina 34-31, Lose to NZ 38-7 , lose again to NZ 23-20, lose to France, 41-17 in that order before the RWC - Selects 1 debutant flyhalf in the entire rwc squad who was the flyhalf from a team that came 9th/12 in a pathetic super rugby competition - Leaves Quade Cooper, Foley, Pete Samu among others out after 3 years of building towards the rwc and they have to find out via the team announcement on social media - Spend months attacking Rugby League in the media to the point they RL starts discussing introducing Cap space exemptions for Union players to join League teams (sorry NZ) - Spends months telling everyone we're going to win the world cup, has his face plastered on all ads, bus stops, everywhere (no players were the ads it was just Eddie jones) - Takes a meeting with Japan 3 weeks before the RWC and then proceeds to lie about it for months - Comes out again repeating Australia will win the world cup and that he would hate to be the opposition - Has an media interview where proclaims he wont leave - Lose to Fiji and an average Wales team 40-6!!! - Don't make it out of an easy pool - Comes out that he did in fact meet with Japan and that he lied. Spend the next few weeks blaming everyone else - Leaves.
Well said. Truth bombs 💣. Leaving a brand name like Quade out just seemed wrong and it went downhill from then. Loved Skelton as captain until he got injured. That also scuppered their chances.
@@itistrue101 no. But he left it in a far worse state. Came in, threw all development out the window. Did his own thing then threw the toys out of the cot. Absolutely pathetic.
@@SteveWarlee in Jake Whites biography that I actually read he clearly stated that for the 'Springboks attack Eddie was crucial as a attack consultant'. So yea, he did his part and will receive honour and recognition from my part. Also go watch the full interview on Rugbypass, Eddie gives great honour to the Springboks. The almost spend a whole 1/4 of the interview talking about them.
Please stop that BS narrative. Eddie's contribution was so inconsequential to the Boks 2007 win that he may as well not have been there. Even Jake White was just a small part of that success. That was John Smit's team, backed up by Mattfield and other senior players. They showed that comprehensively when they went through the next 4 years with better stats even though the new coach was the clown Pieter De Villiers.
As a long time close watching WB fan I say Eddie's biggest error for RWC was the appalling squad he selected. There were 11 players in his squad who clearly did not deserve selection. These were Nonggorr, Fa’amausili, Uelese, Gleeson, T Hooper, Kemeny, Arnold, Leota, Fines-Leleiwasa, Petaia and Vunivalu. Eddie never spent enough time in 2023 looking hard at these duds. I'd been watching them for years. He then left home the real worthies like Lonergan, Ikitau, Lolesio, M Hooper, Toole, Brown and Neville. Eddie said he was selecting youth but that was wrong. Most of the players he left home were younger and better. Eddie then did not select a single Test standard goal kicker. Donaldson, Gordon and White were all 2nd string goal kickers for their provinces. Lonergan should have been selected for his goal kicking alone plus..... he was younger and much better than Fines-Leleiwasa anyway. Eddie's squad had NO logic to it. As soon as I saw his squad I knew WBs would not progress from their pool.
Oh FFS, no he didn't. He built a smoke and mirrors international career on that 2007 Bok teams coattails. He's club level coach at best, and a poor man manager.
You didn't need hindsight to know that getting rid of Dave Rennie was a mistake. Eddie will do okay in Japan because Japanese rugby players are subservient, so they'll put up with his coaching antics. TRC should be epic since it has the 3 best coaches in the world going at it. The '24 international season will be a cracker! 🎉
Way to stereotype there. So do all Australians ride to work on kangaroos? Just asking since we are going to stereotype an entire nation. Nevermind that Jones had great success with the Japanese team. Pulled off the biggest upset in Rugby history last time I checked.
Why, what has he ever achieved to be considered "good" even ... never mind "legend" status? His claim to fame is playing a small-bit mostly inconsequential part in the 2007 RWC winning Bok team, and then a single RWC match win as the Japanese coach against a Bok side who never turned up for the match and were caught out on the day. Since then he's messed up England and got fired for it, then messed up Australia and got them knocked out of the last RWC in the pool states.
@LittleBigMediaCo you are forgetting he was head coach of Australia in 2003 when they made the world cup final. Head coach of England at the 2019 world Cup final. He has been in 3 world Cup finals if u include his technical director role with SA in 2007. Not many coaches in world rugby get to a world Cup final let alone 3.
Jim said on the rugby pod he went a bit soft on the questions. I agree. He seemed almost nervous. I think Eddie lost his way with England at the end and then with Australia. I hope he can regain it with Japan.
They were average questions. He didn’t pull Jone sup on anything . Jones said Aust had poor players, then good ones, then poor ones . He has ruined any legacy he had
I understand the Aussies’ frustration with him, but it’s not fair or accurate to put all the blame on him for the current state of Union down there. Things were bad well before he ever arrived or left, and he’s not responsible for the root causes. He showed humility in this interview and took responsibility for more than I think he needed to
@@RugbyLover86 we both have our opinions. His results are not an opinion though, it’s just a fact. Worst wallabies season in history, fact. Jones not having anything to do with it? That’s just your opinion.
@@RugbyLover86 He attended a job interview for Japan while the wallabies were still in the world cup, and lied about it in front of his players when directly asked about it. Want to explain how that's 'doing nothing wrong' ? Do you think there is nothing wrong with lying? Is that why you're a trump fan?
@@RugbyLover86 well it’s a shame Eddie jones isn’t Wayne Smith and the Wallabies aren’t the Black Ferns then 🤣 if Eddie did nothing wrong, what did he do right?
Look i know we all look at ed from a rugby perspective and yes thats what's this is about but common he's a dude like us all so lets just respect him as a dude. Rugby is for gladiators so yea some have to get fucked up but just atleast respect a fallen warrior and a damn brave and outspoken one for that so respect for that atleast.
I''ll add to my comment below by saying that ... of all the NOT young and totally unworthy players Eddie selected in his 2023 RWC squad (ie 11 of em) their 2024 form in SRP has AGAIN confirmed none are Test standard... and never will be. Three of Eddie's selections (ie Fa’amausili, Fines-Leleiwasa and Vunivalu) have been bench players for their provinces all of 2024. Fa’amausili has not even been 3rd best prop for the Rebels in 2024. Eddie's selections were just crazy....
I lost respect for Eddie Jones when he said Aus wanted to face the full strength Springbok team, he said the SA team was half baked. Aus went on to get thumped 43-12 to the half-baked Springboks. Have respect for your opponents Eddie or you will have to eat a half baked pie 🥧.
Eddie's poor decisions was the Wallabies down fall...in my view the Wallabies have the potential to win games...Eddie short changed them by defecting to Japan...wow! Eddie great job for coming forward with this interview, not!!!!!.........
I suspect Eddie Jones' recent performance as Wallaby coach was symptomatic of the issues that have cursed senior management in the ARU for the last decade and appointing Eddie was a desperate attempt to paper over long term problems in Australian Rugby. He was a name coach but he wanted to revamp the Wallabies and the ARU did not and the outcome not surprisingly was therefore catastrophic.
I understand that Eddie Jones said there had to be a change and he was tasked by the ARU to just this. However if a coach has much experience as he has, surely, surely he must have known that his world cup strategy was doomed. Taking young, untested players to perform at the highest level in any sport is the worse than gambling - just plain stupidity. The result is the Wallaby fans are offside and some of the players are offside - Australian rugby the big loser. Sorry Eddie, you should have known better.
Either way they were never gonna get close, Ir, Sa, Fr, Nz were miles ahead of everyone else. Eng lost to Fiji before wc. Essentialy he was doomed from the start i believe.
Words are cheap Eddie. The bad performance of the team was one thing (alot of it was your fault) and the team was in a worst place after you left than before. The blatant lying about having a interview with Japan is another thing.
Eddie sounds not far off from biden, shocking, and stodders along like a drunk. Its time he just packed it in. Muttering in a nasal twang just muttering and mumbling sh-t that incomprehensible
Eddie Jones is the most rugby of rugby men. Love him, even though he looks like he can be a right c..t at times. Is he waiting for a hip replacement or has he stubbed his toe?
Say what you want to say about Eddie Jones I respected him he was very successful and it's just a shame that he was remembered for his purple patch instead of the successes Australian rugby was in decline log before Eddie went back they're to coach there's just no other way to put it

- Selects 1 debutant flyhalf in the entire rwc squad who was the flyhalf from a team that came 9th/12 in a pathetic super rugby competition
- Leaves Quade Cooper, Foley, Pete Samu among others out after 3 years of building towards the rwc and they have to find out via the team announcement on social media
- Spend months attacking Rugby League in the media to the point they RL starts discussing introducing Cap space exemptions for Union players to join League teams (sorry NZ)
- Spends months telling everyone we're going to win the world cup, has his face plastered on all ads, bus stops, everywhere (no players were the ads it was just Eddie jones)
- Takes a meeting with Japan 3 weeks before the RWC and then proceeds to lie about it for months

And u wanted him back😂😂😂
wasn't really in a good state though was it.

Only place Eddie's a legend is in his own mind and yours.
I'd love to have these snippets posted after the full interview!
The LEGEND. The man that helped the Boks to win in 2007. Great respect for this man
Legend then. But then stayed in the saddle too long
Oh FFS, no he didn't. He built a smoke and mirrors international career on that 2007 Bok teams coattails. He's club level coach at best, and a poor man manager.
