Ollie Lawrence has expressed his appreciation for Eddie Jones's tough coaching style, despite the criticism surrounding the England rugby regime. Lawrence, who made his international debut under Jones in 2020, admitted that he often questioned why the Australian coach was so demanding of him. However, he has come to realize that Jones's candid feedback has significantly contributed to his development as a player. Although Lawrence showcased impressive performances for Worcester, he struggled to make a mark on the international scene during his time with Jones. As England prepares to face Japan at Twickenham, it will be Jones's first encounter with his former team. Lawrence's reflections highlight the complexities of coaching methods, with some describing Jones's approach as akin to a "dictatorship." Nonetheless, Lawrence remains grateful for the lessons learned under Jones's guidance.
