Eddie Jones expected to be sacked as England coach within hours: report – Wide World of Sports

The seven year reign of Eddie Jones as England coach will come to an end as soon as Monday night, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.
Just nine months out from the Rugby World Cup, the Herald reports one of the most successful coaches in England history will end his tenure within hours.
His assistant, Steve Borthwick, is expected to take over.

Jones has been under extreme pressure to keep his job after his boss declared he was "really disappointed" with the results in the Autumn Nations Series.
Jones apologised to fans after his team was bullied by the Springboks in a repeat of the 2019 Rugby World Cup final.
South Africa defeated England at their Twickenham fortress for the first time in eight years in a 27-13 statement by the world champions last month.

England finished the year with five wins, six losses and a draw – its worst statistical record in 14 years.
The flat Springboks defeat followed a draw with New Zealand, defeat to Argentina and a victory over Japan.
"We would like to thank England fans for their patience and support, it matters to us how they feel," Bill Sweeney, the CEO of the Rugby Football Union, said in a statement after the Springboks loss.

"Like them we are really disappointed with the results. Despite strong individual performances and some great new talent coming into the team, the overall results are not where we expect them to be."
The RFU said its review panel, which includes board and executive members along with independent former players and coaches, would hold a series of meetings in the next two weeks to discuss the Autumn Nations campaign and how improvements could be made ahead of the Six Nations.
Australian coach Jones is contracted through to the 2023 World Cup and has been linked with a move to the United States to lead their national team after that.
But World Cup winning coach Jake White wrote "my gut feeling is he is in trouble" in a column for RugbyPass.
"The one area Eddie has regressed in, and I've said it previously, is his inability to retain staff, and according to reports, more key staff seem to be wavering," White wrote.
"He seems to be making the same mistakes wherever he's gone. It points to indecision or maybe an inflexibility.
Also, having had 180 players in camp over the last seven years can be seen as a strength, but can also be construed that you haven't made up your mind what your best team is. Time is running out on that front."
