Schmidt is getting better, admits Farrell

The Rugby Paper

|

March 30, 2025

LIONS coach Andy Farrell fears Australia boss Joe Schmidt has stepped up a level and is a notch above the coach he was when he left the Ire land job.

- ADAM HATHAWAY

Farrell was assistant to Schmidt, who won three Six Nations titles includ ing a Grand Slam with the Irish, until the New Zealander left in 2019.

Since then Schmidt has worked for World Ru by, the Blues and the All Blacks before taking over the in-crisis Wallabies in January 2024.

Master Schmidt and his one-time apprentice Far rell will go head-to-head in the three Test series and the Englishman fears his former boss will have a few tricks up his sleeve.
