In 2003, England won the Rugby World Cup. And yet, despite resources and a player pool beyond anyone else, they had never won it before, and have never won it since. So, what is Eddie Jones doing to right this, and how close might he come this autumn?

You're so close; EJ's signature has always been heavily structured patterns, shrewd, often boundary-pushing tactics that run to or just beyond the letter of the rulebook and a reliance on complex pre-set plays, going back to his days with ACT Brumbies. It's a rugby philosophy distilled from Australian Rugby League, built on harsh training-ground standards, competitive, ruthless and abrasive attitudes to winning, relentless forward-momentum and absolute technical exactitude. When applied to a team of players with consistent handling and tackling stats, and who can stick reliably to the game-plan (witness the selection of Owen Farrell over George Ford at 10) it produces a brand of razor-sharp, fluid and dangerous (if often rigid and predictable) attacking rugby that requires an opposition team that is absolutely on top of its own game to be able to combat. The main downside of this philosophy is that when an opposition refuses to buckle, match up in defence, hold the ball, produce unpredictable counter-attacking manoeuvres from broken play, or otherwise upset the pre-set gameplan then Jones-coached teams often lose their composure, make basic errors under pressure and begin lashing out in frustration, conceding costly penalties either through clumsy fouling or straight-up on-field violence. This has been true of every international side Jones has coached successfully, but most especially true of England. His disastrous tenure with the Reds and unhappy time with Saracens demonstrate what happens when a team fails to click with his style of play; Jones' approach works best when in charge of a collection of big, ugly, resolute hard-arses willing to train harder than the other team, follow instructions closely and be both more consistent and more confrontational (which England, always a thuggish, unimaginative and mean-spirited side, most certainly are). The remarkable result against South Africa besides, his record at Japan was largely undistinguished, and their willingness to part with him following 2015 suggests he made few friends there, despite that previously unthinkable win. His time with Australia, similarly, was hampered by Australian rugby's failure to produce the necessary quality of forward that would have given his team parity with England at that time. The Wallabies' swift form collapse in 2004-05 showed the limits of Jones' ability to keep his teams winning, even while Australian sides continued to perform well in Super Rugby. Many in Australia still credit him with having destroyed the national team, since their fortunes have only declined since his tenure. Ultimately, Jones is very skilled at maximising the resources at his disposal, devising clever attacking strategies, coaching to his players' strengths and sharpening their skill-sets to the finest edge achievable. However his consistent emphasis on structured play, merciless training-ground attitude, noticeable infatuation with dirty rugby and tendency to berate players publicly has and continues to lead swiftly to a performance plateau, where his teams lose the ability to respond organically to what is happening around them, become bound by the game-plan and progressively come unstuck against key opposition, usually after a storming first quarter. It remains to be seen whether this England team, along with its corporate box-full of assistants (including John Mitchell, whose influence can be seen in England's consistent offside play since he came aboard, consistent with the Jones philosophy of flouting the rules to win) will be able to win a second World Cup playing Eddie Jones' brand of rugby. My money's on No, but - with the Wallabies in dire form, Ireland gone off the boil, Wales and Scotland being ... Wales and Scotland, France in catastrophic disarray and both SA and NZ in rebuilding phases - it's not a huge bet I'm placing.

Formakiwi couldn’t agree more. A very inflexible team that can’t adapt. Very clever reading of specific opposition weaknesses lead to early points from specific plays. RWC final, cross kick to Tuquiri because his opposition was shorter. Boundary pushing of the rules, this years game V Ireland he (quite rightly) played Ireland at their own game regarding support players blocking the catcher at the high ball. The bit I really hate is the lack of tries from phase play. I wouldn’t rule them out but despite always being dangerous in most of their games, there were two teams this year who, as you put it, didn’t take a backwards step. NZ and (my favourite) Wales. I’m English and would love to see them win, but a Wales NZ final would be the best result as far as the sport is concerned.

Brilliant Squidge, worth the wait. Your point on Jones's Eng is dead right. Jones lines up his cavalry and artillery like a kid playing Risk, and just hoping for shock and awe to win. This worked for Jones for a while, but now the smart teams can read it, and work around it, hence, I believe, the 2H loses. The problem is Farrell has no plan B, other than 'get angry' and this sets the tone for the side. Can't wait for the Wales analysis, save the best till last! Love it.

Hi Squidge, I hope that you're enjoying your Japan WC experience thus far? I just wanted to break a six year rule and not to comment on KZfaq; or elsewhere for that matter..? However... after watching England start bright, slow, and then start to stutter; then very nearly stall completely.I could not help but be reminded of your analysis of the 'Achilles Heel' of this EJ England team. 'Damnable' complacency, again!! Why, oh why, do England always, Always, ALWAYS!!! Start fast and well, only to either trip over the finish line ribbon, or slow for 'that' photo opportunity, only to be passed on the line itself? Tonga should have been out of the game game before the clock turned 60 minutes, and yet... England nearly contrived to fail to get the bonus point, as well as racking up, what could be valuable points in determining the table positions come the final count... Rant over, please keep up the great work Squidge, and Sayonara Sootei :D

Really interesting what you say about England blaming other factors for World Cup failure, I've only been alive since '97 so hard to judge many of the world cup performances, I know Dad blames a David Campese knock on for the 1991 final loss, but also bemoans England's change in tactics - and I've never seen any English person make excuses for the '95 World Cup except for the fact that Lomu was immense and England deserved to lose! More recently, I disagree with your perception of 2007, I believe that we were such huge underdogs in that tournament (especially come the final) and whilst I'm still not sure whether that Cueto score should have stood, obviously I was gutted by the decision at the time, but don't blame the TMO. 2011 was just awful and there is no-one else the English can blame, but I really agree with you regarding 2015. I think the two main factors that were blamed were Lancaster's building of culture and Burgess.Which is ridiculous considering Burgess did really well (and we were still way ahead of Wales when he came off) and whilst Lancaster should hold some of the blame for the team's collapse, it had nothing to do with the strong culture he built. But yeah, you've hit the nail on the head for this coming World Cup. On the one hand I truly (with rose tinted glasses) believe that when England are at their best they are the best in the world, so if we play at our best throughout the tournament we will win. However, I just can't back the boys not to royally cock it up in at least one big game!

In the 1991 final. From Wikipedia: “Despite English dominance in possession, the only try of the match was scored just three minutes later by prop Tony Daly, touching down for a try following Ofahengaue's break from a line-out and subsequent drive from the Australian forwards. Michael Lynagh converted the try. At half-time Australia led England 9-0.” Willy O caught the ball after pushing Iron Mike out of the line out. Wikipedia backs up the Squidge assertion of a change in tactics by England. Teague was playing out of position. He was a 6 at 8 instead of Dean Richards.

Brian Moore also wrote in his book that the backs decided to change the tactics and blames it for the loss. Still can’t blame the Aussies for our own mistake though. 95, Lomu was a monster and ran over most people, simple. The only team to neutralise the danger were the Springboks. Blaming Sam Burgess is just stupid. He’s an outstanding player in the Aussie Leagues. People forget that it was only when he came off in 2015 that Wales broke our midfield and tipped the balance

Mate no offence but I disagree with that statement " when we play at our best we're the best in the world ". It's delusional statements like that that make the rest of the world loath England rugby. There is nothing to back up that statement. You lost to South Africa for ten consecutive years and only recently grabbed a few wins. You've botched 2015 world cup at home. Which was even more cringey considering that horrifically arrogant 2015 beats by Dre robshaw advertisement was still airing after you didn't make it out of pools. Imo I think England would do a lot better if they didn't constantly try look to pat themselves on the back every 5 minutes or blow smoke up their own arses. If one looks at Nz they respect every opponent they play and take them seriously. England doesn't, and you can see it through their statements, that's why they're a step behind when it's crunch time.

We had this tactic we would utilize in order to cut out the fly half. Especially if it was a fly half who liked playing flat. The inside center would cut him off and our flyhalf would run the 8th man line to secure the center. It worked like a charm. I believe it was called mirage cause the fly half would obviously be looking at the scrummy when he received the ball. All inspired by Samoa's Brian Lima again South Africa's Derek Hougaard.

Spot on. Tell us about it! It seems England do it two ways. Blow the lead seemingly because their focus drifts off to a round of golf, or something. Alternatively, they leave it to the last minute for some death defying heroics. Nothing straightforward about this great country of ours, except, that is, for yesterday against the AB's. Sublime. Now, if we can just keep the boys on track for one more game we can all go off for that round of golf and celebrate.
