    Eddie Jones has made his intentions clear for the Japanese national rugby side in his second stint in charge


    The former Wallabies coach led the Brave Blossoms between 2012 and 2015 in his first tenure.

    When former Highlanders gaffer Jamie Joseph took over the helm, Japan rose to their highest ever ranking of 7th in 2019.

    Jones expects another rankings surge for Japan - who are currently 12th in the world.
