Warren Gatland has announced he will not be putting his name forward to coach the British and Irish Lions in Australia in 2025, and has backed Ireland head coach Andy Farrell to do so. The Wales head coach, who led the Lions their last three tours Australia , New Zealand and South Africa , picking up a series win, draw and loss respectively, confirmed the news writing in his column for The Telegraph.
Everyone always just looks at results rather than what teams have achieved and the progress they have made.'Andy has got really good man-management skills, has huge experience in the game as a professional from a young age in rugby league and I have a huge amount of respect for him as a person and as a coach.'He was a key member of my Lions coaching teams on the tours of 2013 and 2017 and I wanted him again for the South Africa tour.
