England head coach Eddie Jones delivered "probably a poor choice of words" in making controversial comments about Ireland and Wales, according to Alun Wyn Jones.
Australian Jones issued an apology on Wednesday after footage emerged of him describing Ireland as "the scummy Irish" and Wales as a "little s*** country" during a talk on leadership given last year.
The former Wallabies boss' remarks were put to Jones ahead of Saturday's Six Nations finale against France in Cardiff.
"Eddie talks a lot. What he says, he says," the Wales skipper said.
"Whatever he said about Wales, it's my country.
"I am not here to say whether somebody says something is good or bad. It's probably a poor choice of words on his part, I'm guessing.
"Uncle Eddie will be able to sort himself out."
