all blacks boss ponders where to play class beauden barrett

All Blacks head coach Scott Robertson said Sunday that he is still deciding how to best use the class of Beauden Barrett, who shone in the series win over England.

The two-time World Rugby Player of the Year came off the bench in Saturdays second Test in Auckland to spark the All Blacks attack. Barrett created the decisive try for Mark Telea by sprinting through a rare gap in the English defence as the hosts secured a 24-17 victory.

The Eden Park result sealed a 2-0 series win after shading the opening game 16-15 in Dunedin the previous week when Barrett had also made an impact as a replacement.

The All Blacks head to the United States for a Test against Fiji next Friday in San Diego before hosting Argentina twice at home in August, followed by two Tests against the Springboks in South Africa in September.

Robertson said he will decide on a match-by-match basis where best to play Barrett.
