Ugo Monye has slammed the idea that England have made ‘solid progress’ following the 2022 Six Nations, describing the claim as ‘dishonest’.
England secured a somewhat underwhelming third place finish in this year’s event, following a 25-13 defeat to eventual champions France. Post-match there were a number of calls for head coach Eddie Jones to resign or either be sacked by his employers on the back of a disappointing tournament.
However, Jones received the backing of his employers shortly after as a statement from the Rugby Football Union pledged their support behind the coach, describing England’s 2022 campaign as ‘solid progress’.
