Former Wallabies star Morgan Turinui has delivered a scathing reality check for Eddie Jones after questioning the Aussie coach's controversial approach at the Rugby World Cup. The Wallabies face a do-or-die game against Wales in Lyon on Monday (AEST), knowing that essentially only a win will save them from a first-ever exit at the World Cup group stages.
Jones has come under fire for picking a vastly inexperienced Wallabies side for the tournament, leaving Australia's most experienced captain Michael Hooper at home alongside other veteran stars such as Quade Cooper and Bernard Foley. The under-fire coach says he has "no regrets" over his contentious selections despite the Wallabies crashing to a first defeat to Fiji in 69 years that leaves their World Cup hopes hanging by a thread.
