KEEPING UP WITH THE JONES

Ex-boss still gets into Genge's Ed

- ADAM HATHAWAY

ELLIS GENGE reached his rugby summit by being selected for the Lions for tomorrow's Test opener with Australia - then revealed he is still getting tips from Eddie Jones.

The Bristol prop messaged his former England boss recently and got a swift rundown of his performance in the win over the Brumbies last week, nearly three years after Jones was axed by Twickenham chiefs.

Jones gave Genge his first look at touring, bringing him Down Under on England's tour in 2016 as an apprentice with Kyle Sinckler.
