    Former Wallaby coach Eddie Jones has called on New Zealand Rugby to come clean on the REAL reason for Scott Robertson's sacking

    Former Wallaby coach Eddie Jones has called on New Zealand Rugby to come clean on the REAL reason for Scott Robertson's sacking

    Jones isn't hiding his distaste at the secrecy surrounding Robertson's demise.



    Jones says New Zealand Rugby hasn't adapted to the modern power game...and has been in decline for more than five years.
