    Finally, Eddie Jones on the women's World Cup final this morning: "Who would ever have thought you would have 40,000 people at Eden Park to watch women's rugby? It was fantastic."

    More from Eddie Jones: "I was under strict instructions from my wife to smash Japan.

    "The All Blacks is a completely different game but we will be ready. We have seven days to get ready. Italy have beaten Australia so you know, anything can happen in international rugby."

    Eddie Jones almost guaranteed that he will stick with the Owen Farrell-Marcus Smith all the way to next year's World Cup there. Injury permitting.

  5. 'We played more like ourselves'published at 17:43 Greenwich Mean Time 12 November 2022

    England 52-13 Japan

    England coach Eddie Jones on Prime Video: "We played more like ourselves. Last week we were too long term in our view, which was my fault and today we were focused. We left 20 points out there and played some really good rugby.

    "It's about playing to our strengths. You want people to recognise an England team playing, and we need to adopt a new style. But today we looked like England. We were in white shirts which might have made a difference.

    "Owen Farrell and Marcus Smith are growing at 10 and 12, they both have things they like doing and it will get better every game they play. We will stick with it, we need to score points at the World Cup and we need two guys who can run our attack."

    Japan coach Jamie Joseph: "We were outplayed today and put under a lot of pressure. We conceded a lot of penalties, it's hard to get momentum against a very good defence.

    "You have to take your hat off to England. It was a really good game for us in terms of experience. Our goal is the World Cup."

  8. What's next?published at 17:32 Greenwich Mean Time 12 November 2022

    We'll hopefully hear from Eddie Jones before next weekend, when England face New Zealand.

    That's a 17:30 GMT kick-off on Saturday, 19 November.

    The week after they face South Africa. Two titanic clashes to come.

    We are still waiting for Eddie Jones to face the cameras.

    Owen Farrell is walking around the pitch with a samurai sword. I assume it's some sort of trophy and not just one he owns.

    The last two weeks have been classic England under Jones - against a team near our level we were turgid unimaginative fragile and ill-disciplined. Against a team well below it, we are dominant and relentless. We are nothing but flat track bullies.

    England captain Owen Farrell on Prime Video: "We let go a little bit more, we stayed constant throughout the game. It's not that we didn't make mistakes this week, we just reacted better.

    "We didn't think too much, sometimes when you come together for the first game in a while you overthink things. We wanted to show the best of ourselves.

    "Everybody is talking to me about playing with Marcus Smith but it's not about that, it's about making the team tick.

    "We've got seven days together before the All Blacks and we'll see how far we can go."

    England player of the match Freddie Steward on Prime Video: "All week we said we wanted to bounce back and we did that today. We addressed the problems we had last week and we clicked.

    "The kick chase is a massive part of Test rugby, we wanted to overpower them. I love being at Twickenham in front of these fans."

    That is Eddie Jones' 59th win as coach of England, equalling the record of Sir Clive Woodward.

    Jason Waterfalls: So disappointed with Japan. England were always going to win but Japan have been absolutely awful. I hate games like these. The team on the winning side gain nothing by winning by 30+ points and the team losing gain nothing by losing 30+. Not competitive, not entertaining
