Bernard Jackman: Andy Farrell still needs answers after worrying Italy performance
"Andy's searching for answers and he didn't get it from the first team he picked and he is looking for players that can add a bit more to the mix. So he is searching for answers and you have to when you are in the middle of a rebuild. Those answers don't come easy. It's not like doing a multiplication table."
"When asked about Ireland's team selection for yesterday's game against Italy, he said: "Andy's searching for answers and he didn't get it from the first team he picked and he is looking for players that can add a bit more to the mix. So he is searching for answers and you have to when you are in the middle of a rebuild. Those answers don't come easy. It's not like doing a multiplication table.""
Ireland produced a huge amount of errors and experienced a capitulation of the scrum, creating major concerns ahead of the Twickenham trip. Andy Farrell's first-choice team failed to provide the answers he sought, prompting selection changes. He is searching for players who can add more to the mix while overseeing a squad rebuild. Finding effective solutions during a rebuild is difficult and will take time. Eddie Jones, an experienced international coach who also podcasts while coaching Japan, pointed out that those answers do not come easily and are not as simple as doing a multiplication table.
