Rumours were circulating this week that England captain Owen Farrell could bet set to head to the South of France to play his rugby.
The Saracens out-half has decided to take a break from playing with England during this year’s Six Nations and focus on his own and his family’s well being.
And can you blame him with these constant attacked by the English media, see this below and the comments to go with it;
That headline is bang out of order. He kicked well, made a couple of mistakes but certainly didn’t cost his team the game. They recovered from the intercept. Thought we were more physical and it’s a shame we couldn’t catch!
I’m fed up with the media blaming Farrell! I was livid at a comment from Lawrence Dallaglio on TNT yesterday when he said yhst the rumours about Farrell leaving might have something to do with the loss, as they lost when he announced he was stepping down from England for a while.Totally agree. Lazy sensational journalism which leaves very little true insight into the game I watched. Unnecessary negativity which NO player should be labelled with. The sport I watch is based on teamwork and respect.
