It is a privilege to play for your country, but it comes with a lot of responsibility and I think the support system around that could be a lot better.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>According to Sinckler, last week\u2019s revelation that Farrell will voluntarily miss the Six Nations \u2013 leading to doubts about his international future \u2013 was no great shock, given the burden he has endured.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Professional sport is a pressure cooker, but when you&#8217;re playing for England it&#8217;s more heightened,\u2019 said the Lions tighthead. \u2018Then when you are the captain, and the fly-half, even more so. So I am surprised but not surprised.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/04\/22\/78574191-0-image-a-99_1701730422218.jpg\" height=\"446\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Kyle Sinckler says more players will follow Owen Farrell\u2019s lead and take a break from Test rugby<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/04\/23\/78391205-0-image-a-116_1701730801462.jpg\" height=\"428\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Owen Farrell to take a step away from England duty to prioritise his family&#8217;s mental well-being<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Knowing Faz, for him to actually say, \u201cLook, I\u2019m not right\u201d, then something must be up because that guy will go to battle no matter what.
