The Lions was not the pinnacle of my career – Woodward

Sir Clive Woodward says playing for and coaching the Lions was not the top of his career.

He played for the Lions on two tours in 1980 and 1983 before taking charge in 2005 but says achievements with England β€œwere what I was all about”.

Woodward suggested the Lions tour is a good thing for the game but β€œsometimes the Celtic countries put too much stall on it” and β€œeven if you win it doesn’t make you a great coach”.
