BY EDDIE DID ME A FAVOUR HAVING A GO

OLLIE LAWRENCE is aiming to show Eddie Jones he is a changed man when the former England head coach returns to Twickenham on Sunday.

Jones, now with Japan, handed the centre his Test debut in 2020 but only gave him six more caps before ditching him a year later.

The Australian then used his book to accuse Lawrence of not being hungry enough and claimed he had a bad attitude.

But the Bath star believes he did him a favour.

Borthwick Since Steve replaced Jones, right, as head coach, Lawrence has become a regular for England.

He played a part in every game at the World Cup and has started the past nine Tests.
