Eddie Jones links up with Hull for two-day advisory role
England rugby union coach Eddie Jones is spending two days with Hull in an advisory role.
Jones has joined up with the Super League outfit and is taking an active role in training ahead of Monday’s clash with Catalans Dragons.
The 61-year-old has a strong interest in rugby league and in 2019 he spent time with Warrington.
Hull FC head coach Brett Hodgson has previously visited the England camp to see his fellow Australian working with his players and assistants.
“At the invitation of Brett Hodgson, Jones will be spending time with the first-team squad over the next two days in an advisory role,” the club said on Twitter.
