LONDON - As if the criticism from their compatriots wasn't enough, Wales had to suffer England coach Eddie Jones telling them they had been "complacent" in just beating Japan 33-30 in Cardiff on Saturday. Jones, who coached Japan to a stunning upset win over South Africa at last year's World Cup before taking on the England job, was scathing in his assessment of Wales's performance against the Brave Blossoms. Jones added: "You look at the side Wales put out, they shouldn't be winning by three points against a Japanese team that has seven or eight new caps. It's not a good result for Wales," insisted Jones after seeing England make it 11 wins from as many Tests since he took over with a 58-15 thrashing of Fiji at Twickenham. As he watched the Japan match unfold, former Wales international Andy Powell delivered a withering Twitter verdict on Howley's ability as a coach.
