Clear thinking the key to England success

England centre Jonathan Joseph has credited Eddie Jones’ clear sense of direction as the key to their recent success. The Australian coach replaced Stuart Lancaster after a disappointing Rugby World Cup and has made an immediate impact. England clinched the Six Nations title as Grand Slam winners last month and Joseph exclusively told the ARN News Centre that all the players are buying into his approach. He said: "On the field he's very clear of what he wants, he's very direct in terms of what he expects from you. "In that sense, you always know where you stand with him. "So he's been great for us and freshened things up. As you've seen with the Grand Slam win we're in a good place."
