Jones wins backing of Tindall

England and Jones have come in for criticism after a difficult start to the year in which they lost six consecutive matches before the series dead rubber against South Africa at the end of June.

But Tindall is confident Jones can again get England playing the sort of rugby that made them Six Nations Grand Slam winners in 2016, as they went unbeaten through his first year in charge.

"The way [Jones] handles the media, the way he handles players is fine and dandy when you're winning," Tindall told Omnisport.
