No love lost here.
Ireland face England in the RBS 6 Nations on Saturday and we’d bet good money that an Irishman is responsible for this post on Eddie Jones’s WikiPedia page.
It says: ‘Jones is a w***er who talks too much. Jones playing career began at Matraville Sports High School. He played as a hooker for Randwick and New South Wales but was kept out of the Australia side by Tom Lawton and then was usurped by young hooker Phil Kearns at domestic level, and Kearns went onto to become one of Australia’s most successful hookers. Jones played against the British & Irish Lions for New South Wales B in 1989…’
We’re pretty certain the editor of this particular piece was referring to Jones’ assertion that Johnny Sexton’s parents will be worried about his participation in this weekend’s match.
“Sexton is an interesting one, they’ve talked about him having whiplash injury which is not a great thing to talk about,” said Jones.
“I’m sure his mother and father would be worried about that. Hopefully, the lad’s all right on Saturday to play.”
Thanks to Joe Johnston for pointing this out to us.
