Michael Cheika accused prop Dan Cole of scrummaging illegally since his career started as the war of words between the Australia coach and his England counterpart Eddie Jones intensified.England host Australia at Twickenham on Saturday in a Test underscored by an increasingly tetchy spat between friends and former Randwick teammates Jones and Cheika.Former Australia boss Jones aired his concerns with the Wallabies scrum tactics straight after his England sides 27-14 win over Argentina on Saturday -- and now Cheika has hit back.He wants to talk about our scrum because were cheating in the scrum -- an important thing to note is hes got to look at his own players, said Cheika of Jones comments on Australias set-piece.Targeting Cole, who was sin-binned in Englands win over Argentina on Saturday, Cheika continued: They are the ones who have a prop with a yellow card.That same props been infringing the law since his career started probably, if not all of this year.England boss Jones declared straight after the Argentina victory that he would seek a meeting with Jaco Peyper, the man to referee the Australia clash, to discuss what he considers the Wallabies illegal scrum tactics.Cheika initially shrugged off the early pre-match salvo when quizzed on Jones comments following Australias 27-24 loss to Ireland in Dublin on Saturday night.But, having settled into this weeks preparations in London, Cheika steeled himself for the verbal jousting - and did not hold back.While Cole was sin-binned against the Pumas, back in Englands summer Test series against the Wallabies the 68-cap tighthead was singled out for criticism by the Australian media.England won the series 3-0 but boss Jones hit out at an orchestrated campaign against his side from the home media, feeling Cole bore the brunt. Former Australia coach Bob Dwyer produced a detailed critique of what was branded Coles illegal scrum technique.Now Cheika has picked up the theme, accusing Cole of boring in, illegally breaking his bind to scrum at an angle and gain an unfair set-piece advantage.The Australia boss, however, insists he hopes referee Peyper will be able to see through what he considers Jones pre-match smokescreen.If he thinks the refs are that naive that if he has a go at our scrum theyll forget about his guy, thats up to the ref, said Cheika.Its not up to me. Nothing I can say will make a difference about that.Its up to the referee whether he gets influenced by that.The guy (Cole) has been boring in and falling down all of June, thats his tactic.If he thinks that me saying something back on that is going to change the referees mind, thats totally up to the ref. I dont think the ref should be influenced by that anyway.England boss Jones invited Cheika to attend his planned meeting with referee Peyper ahead of Saturdays Twickenham showdown.Cheika said he would take up that opportunity, just as he had ahead of the summers second Test in Australia in June.Former Leinster boss Cheika also claimed England coach Jones had stormed out of one of the pre-match referees briefings during the summers three-Test series down under.How can I refuse an invitation like that? said Cheika, when told Jones had offered to invite the Australia coach to his pre-match meeting with referee Peyper.Hes running on our media, hes organising the meetings for the ref and for the Australian team.It is funny how your tune changes. In the summer when we asked for those meetings, he was blowing up and he stormed out of one.England scrum coach Neil Hatley launched a staunch defence of Coles set-piece technique in response to Cheikas barbs.Asked if Cole adopts an illegal technique, Hatley replied: No, absolutely not. It seems to be a common theme from (an) Australian watcher.Coleys one of the most respected tightheads in the world. He has been outstanding so far.When people have a go at him he just keeps his head down and maintains his form. I think hes a quality scrummager.Alex Killorn Jersey .J. -- Marty Brodeur beat the Pittsburgh Penguins yet again. Ondrej Palat Lightning Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Its another day and here we are looking at another dubious hit to the head.

Louis Domingue Lightning Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla.No. 24 North Carolina | Top 25No. 25: San Diego StateLast Season: 11-3?(8-0 Mountain West West)For the Aztecs, a bad start is no reason to panic. Last season they opened 1 -- 3 before winning the last 10 games, and this year they face a tough test out of the gate against Cal and are a toss-up on the road at Northern Illinois. Theyll rely heavily on their defense, which allowed just 16.4 points per game last year. On offense, RB?Donnel Pumphrey?turned down the NFL to keep?playing with the Aztecs and will break almost all of Marshall Faulks career records if he stays healthy. Dont be surprised to see San Diego State in the Mountain West championship game.San Diego States chances to win each game 09.03 vs. UNH: 96.3% 09.10 vs. Cal: 44.7% 09.17 @ Northern Illinois: 48.7% 10.01 @ South Alabama: 88.6% 10.08 vs. UNLV: 86.7% 10.14 @ Fresno State: 77.3% 10.21 vs. San Jose State: 69.6% 10.28 @ Utah State: 60.1% 11.05 vs. Hawaii: 94.2% 11.12 @ Nevada: 63.2% 11.19 @ Wyoming: 77.0% 11.26 vs. Colorado State: 84.3%If the Aztecs get by Cal in Week 2, itll be fair to wonder if an undefeated regular-season is attainable (though 10-2 is more realistic) behind the best running back most of the country has never heard of: Donnel Pumphrey. -- Kyle BonaguraThe AAztecs, winners of 10 straight, only face one Power 5 opponent, and its a home game against Cal in Week 2.dddddddddddd They also miss Boise State on the regular-season schedule. If they get through the Golden Bears, dont be surprised to see a 12-0 run en route to the conference title game. -- Kevin GemmellThe Aztecs schedule sets up for a nice run at a 12-0 season. With Cal in week 2 and no scent of Boise State, San Diego State should be enjoying a Mountain West title and a nice bowl trip. -- Chantel JenningsThe Aztecs won 10 straight games to finish 2015, and theres reason to believe they can carry success over into 2015 with 14 starters returning, including star running back Donnel Pumphrey. A 10-2 finish and repeat Mountain West title isnt out of the realm of possibility here. -- David LombardiWith 14 starters back from a team that went a very quiet 11-3 in 2015, the Aztecs and Pumphrey could make some noise in the Mountain West this fall. How loud that noise will become hinges on beating California at home on Sept. 10, which could clear the way for a 12-0 season. ?-- Ted MillerNo. 24 North Carolina | Top 25 ' ' '
