Incoming Wallabies coach Eddie Jones believes the team that improves the most before September’s wide open Rugby World Cup will win it
Jones fires a shot at ‘the horse guy’ Peter V’landys
But when asked if he genuinely thought the inconsistent world No 6 side could win the World Cup this year, he was serious. “Throw in the volatility of the refereeing at the moment with red and yellow cards are like playing in the lottery, you don’t know what you’re going to get. You’ve got all these things happening that give us this massive opportunity and it’s an exciting time to be involved.”He said every player would have a chance to “select themselves” in club rugby and that replacing Rennie before his contract was to expire at the end of this year was not in his control.
