    She's out early this week...

    Eddie Jones has told England they stand on the brink of greatness after setting up a World Cup semi-final against the “beatable” All Blacks on Saturday. Jones described New Zealand as the greatest team in sporting history but believes England can reach the final provided they are not blinded by the All Blacks’ aura.

    All Blacks are best sports team ever but beatable, says Eddie Jones

    Top work Aura.

    Some weird reporting in that article though: apparently England have never beaten NZ under Jones in their one meeting ...

    The Guardian has obviously never heard of a moral victory...

        @jegga I thought it was a dull piece from a guy whose ego was always more than his ability. Serious chip on his sholuder that Wasps dumped him for Brad Shields. He has a go at Super 14, but when Haskell played for the Highlanders, he was mediocre.

                  i honestly don't know where this broad reaching opinion that NZ rugby fans are precious comes from. I really don't.

                                  @Rapido It's fair to say I've never liked Mr Haskell's manner on or off the field. Not a fan.

                                  He is cashing in after his playing career with a couple of old anecdotes so good luck to him, I guess.
