England won only five of their 12 games in 2022 after a second successive Six Nations where they lost three of their five games. Despite the continuing struggles on the pitch, the Australian insisted that after he had got his squad together for a three-month training camp next summer they would reveal a new attacking structure and emerge as serious contenders to lift the Webb Ellis Cup for a second time.
After the dispiriting Springbok defeat he sounded far less supportive when pointedly saying of the fans' opinions: “It matters to us how they feel”. Jones said: “I am pleased with much that we have achieved as an England team and I look forward to watching their performance in the future. Many of the players and I will no doubt keep in touch and I wish them all well in their future careers.”
