Will Greenwood reacts to Fox Sports Australia's build-up video to England's summer tour

Eddie Jones and Michael Cheika may be keeping things respectful and friendly but the gloves are off when it comes to the Fox and Sky Sports pundits.

The likes of Tim Horan, Phil Kearns, Rod Kafer, Greg Martin and Sean Maloney got stuck into England ahead of the first Test in Brisbane on Saturday, live on Sky Sports.

The Fox promo is an Aussie wind-up at its very best and starts when Maloney almost chokes on his water as he hears England coach Eddie Jones claim it will be a failure if England don't win the series.

"Hey, they've never beaten Australia in Queensland!," says an astounded Maloney to the rest of the Fox rugby team.

Cue memories of famous Wallaby wins over England including their 76-0 demolition of Sir Clive Woodward's side in 1998 - Horan re-lives both his tries - followed by plenty of digs at England's 2015 World Cup failures.

But Greenwood does not take the jibes lying down and wades in with his own memories - remember the 2003 World Cup?
