Japan need time, there's no magic solution: Jones

The Straits Times

November 28, 2024

TOKYO - Eddie Jones has urged Japan to keep faith in him, despite lacklustre results that have included several heavy defeats since he returned as coach almost a year ago.

Japan need time, there's no magic solution: Jones

The Brave Blossoms have won four games and lost seven since the Australian took over in January, and they were beaten by 40 points or more by New Zealand, France and England.

Jones told reporters late on Nov 26 after returning from Japan's tour of Europe that there was "no magic solution", but insisted he was confident that his team would improve.

"They're the sort of experiences this team needs," the 64-year-old said of the tour, which ended with a 59-14 thrashing by his former team England at Twickenham on Nov 24.
