England and Wales rugby teams both change coaches

What do you think? Personally, I'm glad Eddie Jones has gone because the England rugby team has been a mess since the last World Cup. My one regret is that it didn't happen sooner to give the new coach more time.

I think the sacking if Pivac is harsher because results haven't been terrible given the quality of the the players. I think he's done enough to earn the right to take the team to the WC. but the WRU didn't. I guess getting Garland back was maybe too good to turn down, given his outstanding record over a long period of time.

I'm glad Jones has gone but they waited too long to get rid of him. Next years world Cup is a right off now.
Also there is the fact that the rfu is having to pay him £800k to go at a time we have two clubs gone bust and a bunch of players and staff out of work. That seems inappropriate to me.
