Read our privacy policy Jamie George has braced England to face the unexpected when Eddie Jones returns to Twickenham in Sunday’s climax to the Autumn Nations Series. “Eddie’s a master at getting teams up for big games and is going to have Japan as well prepared as he possibly can,” the England captain said. We are going into this game knowing that we need a result and we're going out there to win Jamie George “We are going into this game knowing that we need a result and we’re going out there to win.” Jones coached the Barbarians against a World XV at Twickenham last year but Sunday is his first match against England at the venue since a dismal run of results forced the Rugby Football Union to act at the same stage in 2022. “The fans would have seen the amount of effort that he put into the English game.” A disappointing autumn has seen New Zealand, Australia and South Africa prevail at Twickenham to plunge head coach Steve Borthwick’s win ratio below 50 per cent in his two years in charge.
