England future management?

[thechosenfamily]

Would you rather Andrew goes to NZRFU or Wayne Smith to RFU?
You can only have one

Rob Andrew has to go for me.

He has been responsible for many of the decisions for me that have had a detrimental effect on England rugby.

Unfortunately, it looks like he at some time has bathed in Teflon.

It's unbelievable that he remains in post! Can anybody actually name something positive for English rugby that he has done...

He is a tick quite frankly, was loved by establishment as a player and now some how appears untouchable.

Solid analogy. Constant fear of lyme disease and I have to check my dog after every walk to ensure he isn't clinging onto her.

He's a yes man, SL is a yes man, we have a rugby team full of yes men. Like the 80s when we were jolly nice chaps but were crap at rugby. Somethings go full circle.

Thread actually becomes relevant again.

Get Eddie Jones let him pick his own coaching team.

Hopefully he will want Edwards.

RFU have the cash but Andrews is the biggest issue now.

Andy Farrell named head coach "He knows the players and was brilliant League player which we all know is better than Union".

Disagree - he's not actually involved in the elite side at all now is he? Pretty sure his remit was solely managing the relationship with the PR clubs - which seems to be going well at present.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Laughing at people saying it won't be Jones as he is @ Stromers the RFU have the dosh (damn autocorrect) to bring in anyone they want now. (Only if said coach wants to come).

Nope he is the head of performance development or some crap.

There is no way Jones will be able to concentrate on both the Stormers and England. Both new jobs. It's either the one or the other. There's no way he is going to England. That's ridiculous to even suggest that.

It's the RFU.............. Cod for Christ sake loads and loads of cod.

Lol There is every chance he will go to the RFU if he wants to and RFU want him.

RFU could easily buy him out.

Jones might not want it, but he has said plenty about it.

So isn't ridiculous as you think.

i get the feeeling Edwards doesn't just want to be a side-kick anymore - thinks he'd only leave Wales to be the boss.

I get what your saying, but i think Jones is committed to the Stormers. And being bought out without even starting 1 game for the Stormers,is just all sorts of wrong and unethical manner.

Nah!

Eddie Jones will do what he wants TBH.

He might not want the job, but IF he really did want the England job he would go.

It's the pro era and these things happen nothing unethical about it IMO, everyone thought he might stay with Japan till 2019 home world cup he didn/t a 2 year contract isn't the longest of contracts.

Not a betting man but the odds are always interesting:

Jake White is the favourite everywhere I've seen apart from Betway who still have Joe Schmidt as the favourite.
Surprised to see Mike Ford as such a leading candidate despite having ruled himself out.
