PARIS - England coach Eddie Jones did not look for excuses after his team fought back to avoid an embarrassing thrashing in a 24-17 defeat by France in their Six Nations opener on Sunday.
The World Cup runners-up had fallen 24-0 behind and were too far from their usual high standards in the opening hour to secure victory at the Stade de France. “Tuilagi tweaked his groin. He’s a big gain line player for us. In those conditions we did miss him, but we’ve got to be good enough to deal with that,” the Australian said.
Jones thought France should be given more credit for their performance, especially scrumhalf Antoine Dupont.
