“I think unfortunately, money and budgets are playing a large part in success,” Jones says.

“But I firmly believe that you can attain success without necessarily having the top budget. If you can agree a sufficient budget, then it comes down to the experience and expertise of your coaching team and your development structures and your pathways.

“And that’s what I see at Leicester. They may not be the top spenders at the moment but Steve’s a pretty good operator.

“I think our collective can be much better than the sum of the parts. I think that’s what we try to achieve.”
I am glad he understands this and has that attitude.

Budget is important but equally it's not the be all and all end all.

Maximum your budget and maximise what you can get can get from it.

Is he here? Unlike Bondi not to throw something out into the digital ether.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

At a guess he's probably in the UK, "officially" working for Tigers from home, but suspect he's likely quarantineing?
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.
