Under-fire Eddie Jones hits back: England can win the World Cup

64 comments · 374 votes

Before the cynics start condemning him, hes just answering a question that was posed to him. What is he meant to say? We have no chance? Of course they have a chance, just like the other top teams do. No tier one International coach would say otherwise.

We can afford to lose Read or smiths. Brodie Retallick on the other hand..... first name on any coaches team sheet.

Of course they can.Will they is a bigger question. Made more difficult from some pretty average performances from a team that suggests all may not be well in the dressing room.And they will need to be galvanised not just to make a decent showing in November but to go onto greater things in Japan.I think the big threat next year will be Ireland and the Boks, personally but with their resources and roster the Roses would have to figure you would think...

Under-fire Eddie Jones hits back: England can win the World Cup.........in 2045

Weird combo or what? EJ and JM, should be fun to watch, 2 of the â˜funniest thinkers in the game.

Id me more concerned about Scotland and Ireland based on their recent form. Still, Im sure the ABs will not take England for granted.

Its a tournament any team could win..The all blacks wont go thinking they will win..But they could win..

said that in 2015 as well. Same players to be honest,.

Yes they can but will they. Any team can. Japan can but will they. We can but will we. Time will tell

He may be right - provided southern hemisphere sides boycott the event and Ireland, France, Scotland and Wales all get lost on the way there.

They either will or they wont, same as every other team

Make it out of the pool stages this time and well talk.

Yeah The Boys - You clearly havent done the research into why that happened and why it wont again... - Lol, not many facts and/or statistics to back up that statement - how about just one, eh?Go on, just one reason...

Agree. Why would he be their coach if he didnt think they could win? Im sure the top 6 or 7 countries all believe they can win the world cup.

And if I get all the numbers right, I can win Lotto on Saturday.

I think you need to look at the statistics... 2015 was a disaster waiting to happen. The problem over here isnt me, its you. Maybe get the knowledge on the subject before you deem yourself worthy enough to comment on the situation. The only reason I made this comment is because Ive seen the evidence of what happened 2015. You just obviously havent taken note of the context of the situation. Typical arrogant New Zealanders, Im ashamed to be one sometimes.
