How good was England's march to the Six Nations?
Not so much the manner of their victories but the way that rascal Aussie coach Eddie Jones directed England to an elusive title.
Jones, the man who has a PhD in provocative taunting and turned it on England in a previous life, rode into town and guided the side to their first Six Nations crown since 2011.
For those who criticised England hiring a foreign coach in the wake of their World Cup meltdown, Jones delivered a triumphant reposte. He brought a plan and got his players to believe. At times England won ugly and at other stages they struggled.
However they kept winning and in their toughest inquiry they held off a fast-finishing Wales 25-21 at Twickenham and then claimed all the competition honours when Scotland beat France 29-18.
