Not like the last 4-5 years where our wins have been 90% arseing a lead and holding on somehow

What we have shown under Jones is more than in any of the last 8 years

What has crippled us is the players

Last weekend is a classic example.

We should never have lost that 3-0
We dominated play and butchered our chances they didn't
I agree with you in some ways. BUT. How can you say that Jones is responsible for all our improvements but the players are responsible for all our shortcomings? We play out better from the back - you don't think this has anything to do with tidier players such as Boogard, Ugarkovic and Koutroumbis?

Much better attack - nothing to do with new signings Hoole and Nabbout linking up with (earlier in the season) Clut and also Nordstrand?

I'm not saying our players are world class. But I can't fathom how you are able to attribute all positives to the coaches influence (which lets be honest, none of us except evanhayes and anyone else that regularly attends training would have any idea how much or little influence he has) but absolve him for all shortcomings because the players just aren't good enough.
