I think the funniest part of the speech is his coaching brilliance in selecting 13 "7/10" type players and 2 brilliant but inconsistent ones.
Hey Eddie, when your 7/10 guys don't play at their max levels you get a majority of 5 or 6 out of 10 performances in your team. -

@nzzp Storm in a tea cup. He's clearly just taking the piss. The same bloke who said New Zealand was just a shitty little island off the south coast.
If anyone's getting upset about his comments, they're showing they have remarkably thin skins.

What’s funny about the clip in the scummy Irish reference is he’s talking to the guy who’s seated - a former SAS commander, Mike Lynch, who is Irish.
Who laughs.

It's the fucking 6 Nations!! We're constantly told how we can ignore the "quality" of the rugby on display because of the "history" and the "hatred".
So a coach totally buys in to it, says what every fan says, and you get "outrage"?
Fuck me dead.
I like Eddie, i really do, he's a funny bugger.

Joe should stick it on the shed wall and say is that the best he can do. Let’s give him something to really moan about.
Then he can use it again for the Australian tour.
Two for the price of one. 😏

it's not the fucking 1980s, international teams don't need "psyching up" to win tests.
"well, it was just another Test, but then Eddie called us "scummy", so then we just knew we had to win".

Was it Eddie? Or are you confusing your abusive Ockers? Scott Johnson and "poxy islands"?

“Sorry, I meant to say two shitty little islands.”
Eddie Jones, England rugby union head coach, when asked to apologise for calling New Zealand “a shitty little island off the south coast of Australia”.Not only can he not count but his geography is appalling.

As a New South Welshman, it's off our South Coast and that's what matters.

Hmmm ... so not only is he abusive he is derivative.
Scott Johnson 2004:

So Jonesy is only 13 years late to the joke (... or The Times is wrong ...)

Absolutely. Most of my upvotes on here are lame jokes/memes I've pinched from elsewhere. Very rarely is it for sporting knowledge.

Oh FFS
Need massive games off Biggar, S Williams and L Williams

It will be interesting to see if Wales fall into the same trap as England and are thinking to much about what they will do with the ball rather than concentrating on getting/retaining the ball in the first place. Disrupt that and all other plans disappear.

I can see an argument for all those selections save Wigglesworth starting. Launchbury hard done by but not quite hitting the heights in the last couple of games. Front row as I'd hoped. Back row now has a bit of pace to it but still lacks balance for me.
