Brilliant elsewhere, with two tries, two try assists and a list of otherimpressive statistics, Barrett was successful with only three of his seven shots at goal. It is, as the All Blacks might say, a work in progress, and nobody will be more frustrated at his comparative inaccuracy than Barrett. Barrett has previously worked on kicking through the ball, and that will probably form the basis of his training once he and the team assemble in Auckland on Tuesday. He carried the ball 70 times (20 at Kings Park), second only to the Pumas' Facundo Isa's 85. The 25-year-old is a special talent, and if and when his goalkicking comes together, he will be a great one.
