@Nepia Eddie Jones coached some under 10s in a London park with massive enthusiasm for over an hour in freezing conditions. No obvious links between him and the club. He had walked there and then walked off at the end. Some of the parents weren't sure it was actually him.

That’s a great story and reminds me of Jerry Collins turning out for Bideford 2nd XV when he was in the area.

What a twat. Making the kids run around in the bitterly cold frost for an hour.

Especially as under 10s is usually Sunday, so the poor souls get a double dose.

How it should be done.

It will harden them up.

@booboo especially with the goal posts in the background, they were probably there to play soccer football!

I hate myself for siding with the Walrus.

Does Sinfield actually have pedigree? Good move to get more coverage with BBC though. They're obsessed with him.

@Bones Sinfield is Leicester Tiger's defence coach at the moment.

Steve Borthwick's superb record as an Assistant Coach to Eddie Jones and more recently as a Head Coach speaks for itself.

I met him a couple of times when he was at Saracens and liked him. Knowledgable and passionate about the game, a very decent bloke, a bit shy. I wonder what the media will make of him. I can't believe his press conferences will be anything like as entertaining as Eddie's.

Sinfield will hopefully do for England what Edwards did for Wales and does for France

This could be the masterstroke that takes them to the the next level

@Stargazer not really a surprise is it? Still not sure that dumping EJ was a sound idea, certainly had a few players come out and say they think it was a mistake.

British rugby media got their man basically.

Seems that way, once media started, and the internet forums got into it, seems his days were numbered.
