England coach Eddie Jones
England coach Eddie Jones has called the All Blacks “the greatest team that has ever been in sport” as he spoke about his team being on the brink of greatness if they can beat New Zealand this weekend.
Although England has not beaten New Zealand under Jones, he does have experience of breaking Kiwi hearts at this stage after masterminding Australia’s win over the All Blacks at the 2003 World Cup.
While heaping praise on the men in black, Jones also described the All Blacks as beatable.
He said New Zealand is a great team with a great coach and a great captain but like any team they are beatable and there are ways to beat them.
New Zealand pipped England 16-15 last November in Twickenham in what is the only clash between the two with Jones coaching.
The All Blacks meet England on Saturday at 8pm.
