Danny Cipriani has hit back at England head coach Eddie Jones following his criticism of the nation's public schools set-up.
Jones—whose contract will expire following the 2023 Rugby World Cup —recently told iNews English rugby relied too heavily on the public school system. He went on to suggest the current model creates 'closeted' players who struggle to find ways to win "when we are not on the front foot."
Cipriani attended fee-paying schools but came from humble surroundings, rewarded with scholarships after he showed great promise in rugby, football and cricket. And the 34-year-old—currently a free agent following his release from Bath —believes Jones deserves more of the blame than he lets on.
