Wow,....there's an awful lot of information in that. Don't know where to start. I'm remaining mute on young James so all I can say is that Eddie really is a very, very impressive manager of men. It's just so effortless for him, it's like he's organising the Academy players on a Sunday morning.
Only proviso is,.......fecking Cockers, fecking frontrow union. Still, 5 game streak, let them have their fun.

Nick Cain clearly did not talk to Eddie Jones. Nick Cain sat at some press conferences and lifted quotes from press releases and other interviews.

Aye, good round up, but it all seems suspiciously old news.
Can't really argue with the seeming thrust of Jones' intent at the moment.

I think it deserves the moniker of revolutionary. A Frontrow revolution.

He seems to be sending a pretty clear message to the younger blokes that he wants them absolutely battering the door down to selection.

He's not f*ckin around. There will be rugby.
The Kvesic omission surprised me but getting the GS with mostly the same players.....that was a good start.
