England rugby coach Eddie Jones is rallying the nation behind Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the fight against Coronavirus.

Jones earlier confirmed that he had taken a pay cut in excess of 25 per cent.

The Rugby Football Union is projected to lose £45-50 million over the next 18 months.

With many clubs also in financial strife, it's a grim time for the game, sport in general, and society overall, but in a video message, Jones made an impassioned plea for the rugby community to band together and remain positive.

He says rugby has always been a game about teamwork and at the moment teamwork is so important for the nation.
