Lynn took the reins before the 2025 championship but has enjoyed just one win – a pre-World Cup win in Australia – in 15 Tests.
“I always wanted it to be moving faster and I am taking the pain but I am definitely excited about what the future holds,” insisted the head coach.
“I definitely feel that the gap is closing. I just feel that the consistency has to happen when at club level so it becomes a good habit in Test rugby.
“There are not any shortcuts and this pre-season is going to be huge for us.
“I knew that it was going to be a challenge and I am still very excited about where this group can go, because we want to work hard.”
