There’s strong rumours that the English man and former Saracens centre will be part of the Lions coaching ticket for the summer. But right now the English man admitted no one knows what’s happening.

Andy Farrell had some great news this week with both two key players for Andy Farrell in Peter O’Mahony and Jonathan Sexton putting pen to paper with the IRFU. O’Mahony signing on for another two years and Sexton another year. Two vital players for Ireland going forward in the Six Nations and upcoming tests.

Ireland managed to get back to winning ways with a good win against Italy in Rome after two opening losses to Wales and France. Next up is Scotland in Edinburgh should be an absolute cracker and an interesting game to see where Andy Farrell and Ireland are at.
