Canada rugby coach Kingsley Jones leads Barbarians against world team in all-star game
As a former Welsh international, Kingsley Jones is used to being one of several Joneses on the roster.
“It’s been excellent to just have a couple of meetings with [vice-captain] Quade Cooper, [captain] Alun Wyn Jones and a couple of others and then to go our on the field and within 40 minutes, [to see] the growth in a team. They look like a team in 40 minutes,” he said from London. “There’s that much experience and confidence to just organize themselves.”
Kingsley Jones also served as assistant coach to Philippe Saint-Andre in a 29-23 win over Ireland at Thomond Park and 35-26 loss to England at Twickenham, both in 2010. The two Jones have known each other since 2007 when they met In New Zealand on a rugby course put on by former All Black Murray Mexted, now managing director of the International Rugby Academy.
