Andy Farrell has branded the saga surrounding the England captain, and his son, Owen Farrell possibly missing the Rugby World Cup through a disciplinary ban as a ‘disgusting circus’. Farrell was originally cleared by an independent disciplinary panel after his red card against Wales, before World Rugby announced on Thursday they were appealing against the decision.
‘Whatever I say anyway is probably flawed. When you’re talking about somebody’s son and asking the question, it’s always going to be flawed, so what does that really matter,’ the Ireland head coach said. ‘The circus that has gone on in and around all of this is absolutely disgusting, in my opinion, disgusting.’
