On the eve of the Rugby World Cup, Eddie Jones allegedly conducted a covert job interview with competitors of Australia.

With a possible early exit from the World Cup for the Wallabies, Australia coach Eddie Jones is preparing his team for their crucial match against Wales on Sunday night.

On the eve of the Rugby World Cup, under-fire Australia coach Eddie Jones reportedly had discussions with another international team.

After stepping down as England’s head coach, Jones, 63, unexpectedly rejoined the Wallabies in January.
But as a result of their shocking World Cup exit at the hands of Fiji last Sunday, his team is currently facing an embarrassing exit.
A loss against Wales on Sunday night in Lyon will effectively put an end to Jones’ team’s chances of moving on to the knockout rounds.

The decision-makers at Rugby Australia are not likely to be impressed by the timing of the most recent revelations.
According to a report in The Sydney Morning Herald, Jones participated in a Zoom interview with representatives from Japan with the intention of reuniting with the Cherry Blossoms after the competition in France.

Jones allegedly traveled to Paris at the time of the August 25 interview.
A pre-World Cup friendly match against France, which they easily lost 41-17, was scheduled for that intriguing date, just two days prior.

When Jones was chosen to lead the Australian team for the second time after serving as captain from 2001 to 2005, it was regarded as a shock.
The team competed in that time period and advanced to the 2003 World Cup final on home soil, but lost to England.

Furthermore, his most recent contract has an expiration date of 2027, indicating that his employers did not anticipate a brief tenure.
In fact, his contract extends to the following World Cup, which will once more be held in Australia.

Jones’ former teammate and current Rugby Australia boss Phil Waugh has denied the rumors.
He will, however, be well aware of the relationship Jones has had with Japan, where the contentious coach was once highly regarded for his work.

Umbro is providing England’s rugby team with their uniforms for the competition as they go for victory in France.
For the first time, the supplier will have the opportunity to create the tournament’s uniforms, which will feature a classic white home shirt adorned with the recognizable red rose.

After the World Cup, Jamie Joseph is expected to resign from his position as head coach, leaving a position that Jones has apparently been earmarked to fill.
Previously, between positions at Tokai University and the Suntory Sungoliath, he served as Japan’s assistant coach in 1996.

But he took over as the nation’s head coach in 2012, leading them to the 2015 World Cup before moving to England.
When he oversaw Japan’s thrilling victory over South Africa in Brighton, he solidified his status as a cult hero among the country’s soccer supporters.

Along with winning the 2014 Pacific Nations Cup, he also guided them to four straight victories in the Asian Rugby Championship.
From his 48 Test matches as manager, he finished with 34 victories and a draw.
