Other Senior Rugby / Eddie Jones

« on: December 06, 2022, 01:08:29 PM »

From the RFU web site

https://www.englandrugby.com/news/article/rfu-statement-on-eddie-jones?utm_source=CRM221206ESCoachAnnouncementMain&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CRM221206ESCoachAnnouncementMain&utm_id=CRM221206ESCoachAnnouncementMain&utm_content=men&spMailingID=23106024&spUserID=NjY4NTU2MDk2ODQ0S0&spJobID=2131187829&spReportId=MjEzMTE4NzgyOQS2

Following a review of the Autumn, Eddie Jones has been dismissed from the position of England Men's Head Coach.

The Rugby Football Union (RFU) will now conclude the long-term work it has been undertaking on coach succession planning with changes set to be announced in the near future. In the interim, Richard Cockerill will take over the day to day running of the men’s performance team.

"It is important to recognise the huge contribution Eddie has made to English rugby, winning three Six Nations Championships, one Grand Slam and taking us to a Rugby World Cup Final," said RFU CEO, Bill Sweeney.

"He has the highest win ratio of any previous England head coach and has helped develop the leadership skills of many players and coaches. I am grateful to Eddie for all he has done for England across many areas of the game and the professional way in which he has approached reviewing the performance of the team. He has provided the panel with astute insight and meaningful lessons that will support the team performance going forward."

During his time in charge Jones steered England to three Six Nations titles, including a Grand Slam in 2016, two series wins in Australia, an unbeaten run of 18 matches, an Autumn Nations Cup, and a Rugby World Cup final in Japan.

"I am pleased with much that we have achieved as an England team and I look forward to watching the team’s performance in the future," said Jones. "Many of the players and I will no doubt keep in touch and I wish them all well in their future careers."

The decision for Eddie to leave was taken by the RFU board earlier today. Speaking about the decision, RFU Chair, Tom Ilube said: "The independent review panel regularly updates board on its discussions and findings. We are fully supportive of its process and recommendations."

by RFU Community CommunicationsRFU Community Communications

Monday 13 June saw the release of the Men’s (National 1 and below) and Women’s (Championship and below) fixtures which all clubs should have received.

Principles for promotion and relegation are detailed below. Promotion and relegation for the men’s game is linked to the biggest change to the league structure for 30 years as part of the Future Competition Structure.

At the conclusion of the 2022-23 season the following principles of promotion and relegation shall apply:?

Men’s Promotion and Relegation

National 1 will see the top club promoted to the Championship (subject to Regulation 5), while the bottom side three (3) clubs will be relegated or such other number as notified by the RFU to the clubs.

?National 2 and Regional Leagues will see the top clubs in each league promoted to a league above, with the bottom two (2) clubs in each League relegated. Clubs who are relegated from Regional 2, will return to their Constituent Bodies Counties league.

Promotion for Counties and below

Counties 1 will see the top club in each League promoted a League above. Any?remaining spaces in the higher league that are needed to be populated will be determined at the end of the season.

Counties 2 and below will see the following apply:?

where one League feeds into one higher League:?? the top two clubs in the supporting Leagues at the end of the season will be promoted to the Level above.
where two Leagues feed into one higher League: the top club in each of the supporting Leagues at the end of the season will be promoted to the Level above.
in respect of all cases, any remaining spaces in the higher league will be determined at the end of the season by such applicable criteria as notified by the RFU to the clubs?
?N.B. The position of the team(s) not eligible for promotion shall be disregarded in the event that a team would be promoted into a League in which another team of the same club plays, as prohibited by Regulation[ 13.2.4(b)(iv)].??

Relegation for Counties and below

At Counties 1 and below, the number of clubs relegated will vary and be determined based on such number of Constituent Body based leagues. After promotion has taken place in accordance with these regulations the requisite number of clubs or teams shall be relegated at the end of the season. This will ensure that in the following season there are in all Leagues, Counties 1 and below, the same number of clubs or teams as in the season before or such other number of clubs or teams as the Committee may decide.

N.B. At Counties 1 and below if a first XV is relegated into a League in which the Lower XV from the same clubs plays, that Lower? XV shall automatically be relegated as one of the requisite number of Clubs to be relegated.?

- The final league structure will be confirmed in May (upon completion of the season)
- Fixtures for the 2022-23 season will be released mid-June
