Andy Farrell plans Irish-dominant coaching staff for Lions
Andy Farrell is preparing to announce his coaching staff for the British and Irish Lions tour to Australia, expected to be heavily influenced by his Ireland connections. Despite Ireland's disappointing Six Nations performance, Farrell is likely to include seasoned Irish coaches, such as Simon Easterby and Paul O'Connell, though O'Connell's position remains uncertain. The initial coaching appointments have already been made, with David Nucifora, Aled Walters, and Vinny Hammond set to take on key roles. Farrell's approach suggests a preference for familiar faces over including English assistants, as indicated by Steve Borthwick, who has not been consulted about his coaching team. With the Lions squad set to be announced soon, Farrell's decisions will be critical in shaping the team's direction against the Wallabies. The recent performances of the Irish and English teams during the Six Nations will likely influence final selections.
