There's been a mixed reaction from current and former stars as England boss Eddie Jones fight to keep his job following another dismal Six Nations showing.
MARO ITOJE - STAY
“Eddie is a fantastic coach. He’s one of the best coaches I’ve worked with – his work-rate, his knowledge, his feeling with the players, the way he goes about his business – are genuinely second to none,” Itoje said.
“As players, we need to be accountable for our behaviours. At the end of the day, Eddie can’t play the game for us.
“The players need to be accountable and if you ask any player who has been under Eddie, I doubt anyone will say differently. He’s a truly special coach.”
ELLIS GENGE - STAY
"I believe in Eddie," said Genge on the latest episode of The Good, The Bad, and The Rugby. "Everyone believes in what he is doing."
MIKE BROWN - GO
"Looking at performances and results, I don't think England have built on where they were at the 2019 World Cup. It's still relatively early in the cycle, but I can't see where they have kicked on. He needs to bite the bullet and blood some new players to see what they can do or maybe his time is up."
ANDY GOODE - GO
"On this form the only England players who deserve a spot on the Lions tour are Itoje and Curry.
"Eddie out Baxter in please".
STUART BARNES - GO
Former England fly-half Stuart Barnes believes Jones has “run out of steam” and Ireland defeat should signal the end of his tenure
"It is Jones’s team. It is his fault. Time to go."
