Former Ireland flanker Alan Quinlan joined Monday's OTB AM to discuss the current crises surrounding Eddie Jones' England squad.
The English have lost their last 5 test matches and face the prospect of a clean sweep series defeat on their summer tour of South Africa and Quinlan believes the prospect of Jones staying on as coach through to the World Cup is now on a knife edge.
"It's 50/50 - I think there's pressure on," he told Ger. "Going back to the 6 Nations and speaking before to some ex-internationals, English internationals, before the England game and there was a little bit of discontent coming out of the camp that they were being over-trained and that physically the sessions were very draining. At times, it's a bit of a hard place to be - that it's relentless.
"We've heard some of that stuff about Joe Schmidt's teams - it's 'get your game face on' when you're going in to Carton House about the detail and preparing for the game. I think Eddie Jones - you either like him or you don't like him - there's probably no middle ground.
"I think he's a good coach but there's rumours that he's losing the dressing room a little bit and there's a lot of chopping and changing.
"In turn, Rassie Erasmus, he's done a fantastic job. I watched the game last week with Donal Lenihan and after the first 20 minutes we said 'Oh God, that wasn't a good choice for Rassie to go back to South Africa' and then we started staring at each other for the rest of the game going 'what the hell is going on here?'
"England look a little bit unhappy, they look frustrated, they look narky, they look under-pressure, they're making a lot of bad decisions on the field - they still have a lot of talented players but their discipline is really, really, poor and I honestly cannot believe some of the penalties they're giving away.
"Some of them are really, really basic and it's hurting the team and it's costing them in crucial areas and all is not right there. I think it is 50/50 now because England Rugby is such a massive organisation that they either have to make a decision pretty soon because you don't want to be going into the start of the season 12 months out from a World Cup and if the results start going poor in November - it'll be hard to build it back up again for the World Cup," he added.
