Always been an Eddie Jones fan(even though he sacked my mate at the Brumbies years ago lol),& as a Bulldogs fan I love James to bits. Great interview and I have even contacted my brother(A Rugby coach,former player) to watch this,big insight into what needs to happen to put Rugby back at th top tier in Aussieland.Most of us grew up playing both codes & I have a love for both,I always wished the 2 dodes worked together,not against,we hav to compete noe with nt only AFL but very much soccer too. Long live Rugby,in any guise it is still Rugby
What a great listen this was. Shows what a great bloke and great mind Eddie really is. When you hear the other side of the story is starts to make sense and imo Rugby Australia will regret letting him go in the long run. Should never have been punished for planning ahead
You need to communicate though, and get agreement, and buy in, and he failed miserably in that regard. If he did, he'd still be in the job regardless of results at WC.
That was a very interesting interview..lve never seen Eddie so relaxed in an interview..Another very good interview James ..lt shows you the respect all these people have in you to be agreeing to be interview by you..that must be a great feeling & no doubt giving you confidence
Great interview. Eddie is often misunderstood, a very approachable guy and has no animosity towards rugby league. Loves both sports and doesn't engage in the code wars. You can just tell he hates all the toff and elbow patch nonsense that comes with union.
@@jarradmorgan8549because it's a crap game when you compare it to Rugby League..lve played both games & Rugby League was much more enjoyable to play for me
Union fans love league. It’s league fans who create their own little brother complex in their heads and hate on union just because it’s not their cup of tea haha
Would be interesting to see a XV side work with a left and right split, working as two pods with the 9 and 10 running each pod and having a centre, lock and flanker each side to run it hard, secure the ruck and counter-ruck. I think League people underestimate the added challenge of trying to attack through 15 rather than 13 men, especially when they're right on your nose by the time you get the ball because they're not standing 10m back.
I think the way rhe Rah Rahs turned on Eddie is pretty disgusting. They all wanna blame Eddie for the fact the team stinks and the blazer brigade dont know what they're doing. If I were him, I'd be off to Japan too.
Came across this on my way back home to the US from Japan after watching the Asian olympic qualifiers for rugby 7s. Just an absolutely brilliant interview and riveting conversation. You have a new fan in the US James, great stuff.
Yes. Massively. Got the NRL re started before any sporting comp in the world during covid times, despite overwhelming opposition from the general population, and lots of criticism. Only his vision, leadership, ambition, and contacts made this possible. Look what he did at Harold Park. NSW racing. His record is revolutionary, and flawless as a leader.
100% he has mate..he has done a terrific job & the game has grown greatly in the time he has been involved..Look at all the changes he has made and for the good of thd game..l know l hope he continues to stay involved..
Really enjoyed the chat. Great interviewing and questions James and well done Eddie on the honest answers which made it so interesting. Can’t believe his misses didn’t fancy living in Wigan though! Agree with the huge potential for RL to become big in France and indeed lots of other countries. Fans do though need a team to follow.
great interview james. i loved your footy at the bulldogs and dragons...! im not a eddie fan. australia was going places under dave rennie..... under eddie, australia transformed in the worst aussie team ive ever seen.
Well Done JG; I was in Lyon as a Welsh Dad with an Aussie son and hated how the crowd reacted to Eddie. Aussie Rugby is sooooo broken and it comes from only the top, not at the coaching level. Grass roots in Oz is volunteer based and we have ZERO support from the ARU but pay our subs to their pockets!!!! Get a better Board, who can get back to the basics of players teaching the next generation!!
yep, give it a miss. He;s only worked with some of the biggest coaches on the planet. Let's get someone else who can talk about a piss up at the rooty hill RSL.
The short passing game is already done...by Andy Farrells Ireland! Read a piece with Les Kiss where he reckognised it as something andy brought over from league
Great interview. Love this channel. As for Jones. What a clown. He’s a narcissist and snake oil salesman. What an absolute crock of shyte. Only a narcissist can come in, mess things up and leave as if they are the martyr and that it wasn’t their fault. He kicked australia in the teeth by leaving out one of the greatest Australian players of all time, because Hooper had an opinion on how the team played best. Eddie needs players to kiss his bum. Like big Skelton did. Hooper inspired the team and had a lot of respect from the team. He also wasn’t scared to tell Eddie his honest opinion and didn’t always agree with him. Eddie didn’t like that. His ego was more important than the team. Japan rugby also confirmed they were talking to him about coaching jobs before and during the World Cup. It takes a special type of narcissist to be right, hold on to their lies, despite the evidence showing they are wrong. His line of ‘the players were under enough pressure, so I took the pressure off them with the interview with the press, telling them to punch themselves and being an absolute far kwit because that’s how much I care about the players’ was A wonderful example of narcissism right there. No. No, he didn’t want to take the pressure off the players. If he wanted to do this, he would be amicable, civil, calm and confident. He would not create a division between the team and the entire country of Australia. He would reinforce the narrative that we need to Australia and we know you support us and ‘we are gonna do our best’. What a tool. The whole board in the ARU should be sacked. Good riddance to Eddie. #BringBackRennie
Has Eddie - ever won a World Cup - answer - NO - he was used as a consultant by White - but has never got there himself - close but no cigar - alwyas the bridesmaid - ask him how greta a coach he was to the REDS back in the early 2000's - over rated as a coach by all.
I was a UK Rugby Union fan and just happened to catch James’ debut at Saints 20 years ago. I’ve always kept an eye on his career since because I wondered how things would play out and it seems he treats personal development the way he treated his professionalism in Rugby League. Outstanding individual. Eddie Jones not so much; especially not at Souths in any role. Ewww.
@@cornishcamper3338 That's fair enough but i really don't see why most fans would want to hear from a union man on a league podcast, maybe jammer is branching out with who he has on which is upto him, but don't dress it as just a league podcast anymore if your going to have anybody on....
Nah can’t listen to this podcast, fuck Eddie couldn’t commit to Australian rugby so he runs when it gets hard. Absolutely love jimmy but this is a big miss, I’m sure the poms love him.
It's any wonder this bloke gets sacked every where he goes. Reckons if a forward can pass at the line it will change rugby lol..the All Blacks have been doing that for years!! All their forwards have a short pass. The Irish too the last few years have really doubled down on short passing in the forwards
9:35 Best way to sum up super rugby, the Rebels get 3 thousand and the dog & sometimes the dog doesnt even show up.
Great, great interview. Changed my view of Eddie Jones and his coaching. Thank you. Forwarded it to my son who is a coach on the up.

Came to the pod for Eddie for first time. Gonna stay watching!!
Brilliant James.
Eddie was a great hooker for Randwick in between Bruce Malouf and Phil Kearns in our champion teams of the 70s 80s. 90s
Great interview, plenty of mutual respect between the two.
Thought James was putting himself out there for a future job with Eddie at one point 😂
❤ this video great interview
Why cant everyone enjoy both codes like Eddie
Totally agree dude.
People love to cape up 🤷♂️
Because I have tried, but just don't get or enjoy rugby. Though do respect their athletes.
Union fans love league. It’s league fans who create their own little brother complex in their heads and hate on union just because it’s not their cup of tea haha
League is like touch rugby .no scrums ,no rucks .union is all about the contest in everything you do .
This is dead set one my favourite poddys. Ur crushing it Jimmy 💪🙏❤️
Eddie, on behalf of Rugby League, thank you 🙏 Love ya work
Best interview. Great job Jimmy. Keep up the great work 👍
Great interview Jimmy. Really fascinating to hear from Eddie and his insights on both games and life.
Wow. This is huge. I’ve always knew Eddie liked his League. I love both codes.
I enjoyed seeing James go from "a bit nervous here to be honest" to saying "yeah mate and do ya reckon..."
Epic interview!
Great listen Jimmy
Hit the big time !! What a guest !!
Brilliant interview James I am sure you could even take the podcast beyond Rugby (Union or League) build it in non expert areas with some competence.

"Chat shit, get hit!" Too funny. Not heard that one before.
Can someone explain why people fawn over Vlandys? it seems he has done something magical, but have things really changed with the NRL?
Yes. Massively. Got the NRL re started before any sporting comp in the world during covid times, despite overwhelming opposition from the general population, and lots of criticism. Only his vision, leadership, ambition, and contacts made this possible. Look what he did at Harold Park. NSW racing. His record is revolutionary, and flawless as a leader.

So insightful. I could listen to Eddie for hours!!
Great questions Jamma. .

4:53 world cups a for the now you can build from that afterwards in the next 3 years
Hey this is pretty risky bringing him on. I like it.
Great interview Jimmy.
Love ya jammer
Sounds like those beers infront of Eddie are empty🍺🍺
Not really Eddie fan but good interview.
Love Eddie and his ideas but the last jaunt with Australia really soured things. At least the chairman has got the sack now, only way is up.
James your sounding like a Journalist let him talk your putting words in his mouth 😂😂😂
great interview james.
i loved your footy at the bulldogs and dragons...!
im not a eddie fan.
australia was going places under dave rennie.....
under eddie, australia transformed in the worst aussie team ive ever seen.
Macalau?, Thacker? Deon Fourie? Josh Kimeny!Dylan Pietch?

One of the all time great national traitors
look like im giving this one a miss. see ya next week!
yep, give it a miss. He;s only worked with some of the biggest coaches on the planet. Let's get someone else who can talk about a piss up at the rooty hill RSL.
Also heaps of fijians can play more that one position

Wales online will be going nuts 😂
Jones is wrong on Burgess. He was becoming a sensational flanker but was not even close to that at center.
Great interview mate!
From what you hear about from the media I thought this bloke was a tool, glad I listened what a interesting bloke
Mmmm there's a thought. Listening to the media does not give us the truth, just their "truth".
Great interview. Love this channel.

If you are a trump fan, it would be easy for you to like eddie jones. As you would be used to for someone while they feed you lies.
Get back into the game Eddie: Australian rugby, hasn't picked a Coach yet. Get it done.
Going to bring Jonny Wilkinson on next week another pommy like eddie that kicked Australian to death
Eddie the team your talking about is exactly the Flying Fijians open expansive rugby and all the way from grass roots... It's in their DNA💯👌🇫🇯
Heaps of fijians got all that skill and just the mantle part left to solve

A rat talking about how it wasnt his fault lol so he runs to a league poddy
Who is going to sit through 104 minutes of Eddie Jones. Way too long. 30 minutes max. 💤💤💤💤💤💤💤
