England coach Eddie Jones says George Ford will be better than Beauden Barrett

Eddie Jones doesn't rave about world player of the year Beauden Barrett.Jones made it clear, in the wake of England's 58-15 victory over Fiji at Twickenham to extend their winning streak under their Aussie coach to 11, that Barrett would not have had his vote.

Jones never wastes a chance to chip away at the All Blacks edifice and took another swing when talking up the abilities and potential of his own No 10, George Ford, after the one-sided victory over Fiji.
"People rave about Beauden Barrett but I don't. I'll leave it at that.
"I don't pick the player of the year," he added, with his trademark grin.
Jones said Ford had a "great feel for the game ... He sees opportunities".
But the England coach conceded his No 10 still had some improvements to make, including becoming a more "selfish" player.
"He needs to work on his running game a bit, needs to be more of a threat himself. He's actually too selfless. He needs to be a bit more selfish with the ball at times. But his alignment on some of the phase ball was absolutely outstanding, the best I have seen for a long time." 
It was interesting that Jones chose this weekend to take a crack at Barrett after the All Blacks No 10 had put in an outstanding performance in his team's 21-9 revenge victory over Ireland in Dublin.
But Jones did concede his side had to be ready to take a setback of its own, again drawing on the All Blacks in his analogy.
"It's always fun when you are winning," he told reporters. "Our big test is when you lose a game. We're not frightened of losing. We don't want to lose a game, but we know if we do we will learn a lot from it.
"It's all part of sport. It's all part of developing a team. 
'No one wins at 100 percent; not even the All Blacks. The Chicago Bulls didn't, Barcelona doesn't , Real Madrid. It's impossible with sport because you are dealing with people. You have days when you are a little bit off and the other mob is a little bit on, so you are going to get beaten." 

 Hmmmm ... I get the feeling you don't like the best coach on the planet much, Lara!!
How come?
He knows how to play mind games. Seems he's already under your skin.
Wish we had him as our national coach.

Barrett makes him look like a Ford Prefect ,with a whine in the diff ,worn tyres and a crappy white paint job.Beaudys yer Buggati with beautiful black paint and double overhead fox-tails [on the aerial nicked off an Aussies Holden ] for that extra pizzazz .

 Eddie loves the mind games. When he was coach of the Wobblies he always took a dig a Richie. A fat lot of good that did

 He has the biggest mouth but it takes more than that. I do admire how he get's the best out of his players and he does make some selections that others wouldn't and gets results but that's not enough to be best coach on the planet. The build up to next years game against the Poms is already underway.
