- Coach was facing side that sacked him in 2022
- Jones joked about ‘new book deal’ after Care comments
Eddie Jones has alleged he was abused by a “clown” at half-time during England’s emphatic victory over Japan and has claimed that he will respond to Danny Care’s allegations that he oversaw a “dictatorship” by releasing his own book.
Jones was making his first visit to Twickenham to coach against England since he was sacked by the Rugby Football Union in December 2022. As was widely expected, Steve Borthwick’s side ran out comfortable winners and while Jones was full of praise for his former side, he explained that his return was marred by an incident with a supporter as he made his way down from the coaching box at half-time.
