Stuart Lancaster looked relaxed. Relatively relaxed at least, as he fielded a journalist's question from an Apple laptop, the crammed backdrop of advertising on green in his immediate background. The number of pre-season games, the return of internationals to training and the increase in contact training. The questions rolled in; but it didn’t take long.
It didn’t take long for the Leinster question to come.
Lancaster is out of contract at the end of the season. Leo Cullen is out of contract at the end of the season. The question was double sided. Was Lancaster interested in taking over from Cullen and were there any moves to extend his time with Connacht.
