They exploited a disappointingly mistake flung Georgia last end of the week to clear to an agreeable 35-15 triumph and, in some measure for the present, quiet the pundits that Jones has so habitually jousted during the lead-up to the competition.
Two attempts and 25 focuses from shock full-back determination Ben Donaldson will have been especially satisfying for Jones yet the Wallabies should hold their concentration in the event that they’re to confront the test of a group just two spots behind them on the planet rankings.
