Williams said: “South Africa next summer should be Farrell’s third Lions tour and he has already revealed his ice-cool nerve, and red-hot competitive streak on the last two trips to Australia and New Zealand. He could become one of the first Lions in history to play in three successive series and never end up on the losing side.”
DID YOU KNOW? In 2005, a 13-year-old Farrell had a trial at Old Trafford, and did enough to convince the club’s academy executives that the then goalkeeper deserved an extended spell with the club. Years later, friends hilariously dressed him up as a goalkeeper on his stag do.
