In a no-holds-barred interview, rugby legend Sonny Bill Williams didn’t mince words when expressing his disbelief and disdain for Eddie Jones’ secret meeting with Japanese officials before the Rugby World Cup.
Williams, a two-time Rugby World Cup winner with New Zealand, launched a scathing attack on the former Wallabies coach, questioning his character and labelling his actions as “comical”.
“Obviously, he had that meeting,” Williams told the Sydney Morning Herald. “It says a lot about his character, to be honest. It’s comical. I still can’t believe it.
“I saw straight through his antics and his big-talking. This is a bloke who has a track record of burning bridges.
“The things that he’s done … if he was a player, you wouldn’t stand for it. It’s quite nice that they are being held accountable, just like players are.”
