England coach also wants better refereeing around ruck‘To me it is always about the clarity of the law’ Eddie Jones has called for fewer breaks in play and more consistent refereeing as the best ways to enhance modern rugby union as a spectacle. The
England head coach accepts the need to encourage more attacking ambition but believes it can be achieved without rewriting large chunks of the law-book.
With debate raging about negative coaching tactics, excessive kicking, repetitive collisions and lacklustre entertainment, Jones suggests a solution can be found by increasing the amount of time the ball is in play, stronger officiating and tidying up three aspects of the breakdown.
