England 35-3 Tonga: Eddie Jones says Sir Alex Ferguson helped inspire team

England 35-3 Tonga: Eddie Jones says Sir Alex Ferguson helped inspire team England left it late to secure a bonus-point win against Tonga at Sapporo Dome and coach Eddie Jones said Luke Cowan-Dickie's score invoked the feeling 'Fergie Time'. "During the lead-up to the World Cup, we've had a number of coaches and special guests in," Jones said. "One guy we were lucky enough to have in was Sir Alex Ferguson, and he was always renowned for 'Fergie Time.' The message was: be patient. That's what I enjoyed about our team today, there was no sign of panic." England are in action again on Thursday, against the USA in Kobe.
