Wilkinson linked up with the squad following the win against Wales to help Farrell rediscover his usual high standards from the kicking tee.<\/p>\n
Poor form off the tee<\/h3>\n
Farrell has landed just seven of his 15 attempts at goal over the opening three rounds of the tournament – a success rate of just 47 per cent.<\/p>\n
Against Wales, the 31-year-old successfully slotted just two of his six shots at goal in the 20-10 victory.<\/p>\n
Ahead of this weekend\u2019s clash against France, Farrell addressed concerns about his kicking.<\/p>\n
\u201cHalf of it is overthinking, so it\u2019s about trying to take it back. I obviously know how to kick,\u201d the Red Rose skipper explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve hit some where I\u2019ve missed but have been happy with how I\u2019ve hit them. I\u2019ve hit some where I\u2019ve been off.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s trying not to overthink one or the other too much, trying not to fix everything, and just to get back to kicking the ball as well as I can.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s also having an attitude that irons them all out \u2013 a whole view of it so that you don\u2019t overly pick at little things, which is probably what I\u2019ve been doing.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I\u2019ve been in this situation before, and I\u2019m sure I will again at some point, so it\u2019s making sure I get back to enjoying my kicks.<\/p>\n
\u201cPart of the answer is trying not to work every single kick out and bounce around from one thing to another. It\u2019s just to kick.\u201d<\/p>\n
