Australia media hit out at Eddie Jones and ‘embarrassing’ World Cup defeat to Wales: ‘Officially a disaster’



“Rock Bottom: Wallabies worst nightmare comes true,” was the verdict from The Australian, after Jones’s team failed to turn up in what was billed as one of their biggest games in recent history.

Australia second-rower Richie Arnold meanwhile painted a bleak picture when asked what went wrong for the Wallabies against Wales. “We let the country down, we let ourselves down, pretty embarrassing to be honest,” he said. “F***, mate, what didn’t go wrong?”

Former New Zealand star and two-time World Cup winner Sonny Bill Williams said he felt sorry for the Australia players. “That second half, they looked like a team that just lost belief,” the former All Black told Stan Sport. “40-6 was really embarrassing and I feel for these kids. They’re going to carry this on for the rest of their careers and feel this until they get to come back here again and rectify it.”
