BRISBANE, Australia (AP) England's rugby squad arrived Down Under on Thursday for a three-test series led by their Australian coach Eddie Jones, who didn't take long to complain about how he and his players are set to be treated during the June tour.
The former Wallabies mentor received some early ammunition for his argument when Australian customs officers searched his bags. The bag searches most often conducted at random, but can also be targeted.
Jones thought his treatment fell into the latter category, and talked about his theory that it's part of an orchestrated routine to make life difficult for Australia's opponents - ''that's what I'm expecting, everything that's done around the game is going to be coordinated ... to help Australia win.''
The series starts June 11 in Brisbane.
