England rugby coach Eddie Jones is big in Japan.
As coach of the Japanese side at the 2015 Rugby World Cup in England, Jones guided the Brave Blossoms to the biggest boilover in the tournament's history when they beat South Africa in a match now known as the "Brighton miracle".
That led to Jones receiving a rapturous reception from fans in Sapporo, Japan, in September ahead of England's first game in this year's world cup.
