FUKUROI CITY, Japan - Wallabies coach Michael Cheika, who has a poor record against England under Eddie Jones and an even poorer record in their off-field wrangles, lobbed the first jibe at his former club mate ahead of their expected World Cup quarter-final clash.
Cheika has sometimes appeared exasperated by his one-time Randwick team mate’s mastery of the provocative media soundbite, especially during the June series of 2016 which England swept 3-0. “So I suppose they better win — they’ve had the best preparation according to their coach, so they better go out there and win.”
“The only relevance is Saturday. That’s pretty much about it, it doesn’t matter who’s had a week off, who’s had a week on, who’s been resting, who hasn’t.Cheika’s Australia knocked England out of their own tournament the last time the two teams met at the World Cup in 2015 but this Wallabies side does not appear to have the same cohesion as the one that reached the final four years ago.
Christian Lealiifano, Bernard Foley and Matt To’omua have all had a go with the latter wearing the number 10 shirt against the Georgians.
