British and Irish Lions head coach Andy Farrell has backed Henry Pollock to maintain his “cocky” attitude in Australia while leaving the door open to adding his son, Owen, into the squad in an unprecedented move.

British & Irish Lions coach Andy Farrell has said there are "one or two" spots still open in his squad and Owen Farrell could still make the tour of Australia.

While most of the players are in the dark over their selection status, the British and Irish Lions captain is now fully aware of his place. Maro Itoje is set to be unveiled as the 2025 skipper after an outstanding Six Nations as leader of England.
