England coach Eddie Jones turned up to the Six Nations launch battered and bruised
The 56-year-old coach turned up at the championship launch event in London looking like he had come second in a street brawl.
A patched-up Jones, sporting a bloodshed, swollen left eye, joked that he had been trying out judo and mixed martial arts with the England squad at their training camp in Portugal before turning the blame on a wet bathroom hotel room floor.
"I went to get the shaver and just slipped. It's as simple as that and I can't make it any more exciting unfortunately," he said.
"My mother told me I always have to shave, I forgot to shave and this is what happens.
"I'll be all right - I'll be at training on Thursday and ready to go. When you're my age you don't need a head check."
