@NTA how much truth do you think in this mate?
"Eddie Jones has declared that win or lose it will be time to leave his job as Wallabies coach after the World Cup.
Jones, speaking on the Evening Standard Rugby Podcast, also made his thoughts clear on the Giteau law, praising Will Skelton as the best in the world in his position and giving a huge hint that Richie Arnold is in line for a World Cup spot.
Jones sensationally signed a deal in January that takes him through the end of the next World Cup in 2027 but rejected suggestions he was in it for the long haul.
“I’m only coaching to this World Cup,” Jones said. “I’ve signed, but as I’ve made the mistake before, I’ve stayed too long. So we win the World Cup it will be time to go. If we lose the World Cup it will be time to go.”
Whether Jones genuinely belies that, or it’s another example of the veteran’s mind games, only he knows right now. He has talked of the World Cup campaign as being a “smash and grab” and anything is possible whichever scenario works out for the Wallabies in France.

Eddie Jones is already thinking about picking Harry Potter for the Wallabies, but having seen him play for Leicester Tigers Eddie knows he only plays well in spells.

True that but Eddie has created an exciting new position for Harry at 9 and 3/4. Harry says it has given him a great new platform to train.

I can imagine Waratahs fans won't be too unhappy about this move.
@Stargazer I hope he shifts to fullback, or another position beyond 10.
