[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1172689, member: 56232"] 2023 was definitely not an 8/10, not even close. It was probably a 4. Over half of our wins were against tier 2 opposition. You then have 2 against a Welsh side misfiring as badly as us, 1 against Italy and 1 against a misfiring Argentina. Of, of the sides we beat, 2 of them (Wales and Fiji) also beat us, with Fiji being for the first time ever and Samoa nearly being for the first time ever. We also got a record defeat against France. I don't think breaking 2 worst records and struggling hard against nearly all tier 1 teams and even some tier 2 teams is an 8/10 performance at all. Hell if it wasn't for us thumping Chile 71-0 we would have finished the year with a negative points difference, I don't think that has ever happened in our history so that would have been yet another worst ever record he held, all achieved in a year. This off the back of Jones racking up some worst ever records in his final year too shows just how bad England have been. [/QUOTE]
