Jordie Barrett | Player of the Match on URC debut | Spotlight

[@canadiancontent352]

What a player, what a defensive effort! Shows the commitment. Says a lot about Leinster too that he can slip in and be so effective

[@nprwikeepa6082]

Jordie is slept on as a defender, bro barely misses 5 tackles in a calendar year

[@Cavin-pe6fz]

Jordie Barrett is a versatile world class athlete with a big boot. What a luxury to have the AB's vice captain in your team. Go Jordie

[@WoundedKneez]

He a massive boost for Leinster. To have the Abs vice cap in the midfield is a luxury.

[@Billy-mv9pn]

Best midfielder in the world

[@Karma-qt4ji]

Nope.

[@Scrotomus]

Not even best midfielder in NZ, no where where near the best in the world.

[@Billy-mv9pn]

@@Scrotomus okay fair enough. Second best behind Rieko

[@Scrotomus]

@ haha Reiko isn’t even top 10. Reiko and Jordy are the worst midfielders all blacks have had in decades. Both won’t be in the Midfeild next year.

[@Billy-mv9pn]

@@Scrotomus that's what some people thought pre Robertson....

[@chadnz1003]

In Super rugby hes good amongst many.. playing in ireland..hes elite.the best

[@Chingalo2006]

Are you taking the p1ss m8? He's elite in the world pal. An All Black. He turned down a free ride in Japan and probably 3 times his salary to come 'home' and play some hard graft NH winter rugby. Can a brother get a minute? He's awesome. I've been at 2 of his 3 games and I am blown away by his leadership, communication and skillset. I think Leinster and Ireland in turn will only benefit by his presence this year. Young lads will learn a lot from him. He's a hard as nails C**T. Love him!

[@Fafa_86]

Fair enough there's alot of backlash of his shoulder onto Akis head probably was a yellow at least. But it's the ref and TMO who didn't review it. Seeing Jordies work rate is something else, his hungry for the game really stood out when he's playing an inter pro game.

[@Camcolito]

These Leinster academy boys just get better and better.

[@mikebroughton5522]

😂😂😂

[@puregrunt]

Crazy that he’s only just entering his prime…

[@daddystu7046]

Boys got a bright future! :)

[@proudkiwi7641]

Its amazing to see Jordie shine like a super star. Like dont get me wrong hes that good but he has always looked just above average in super rugby and international level.

[@JimmieCooper-le6vj]

All class Jordie !!! 👌

[@ericlondonmuwazijimmy1221]

Great play

[@chrisbrunskill6525]

Looks like JB is enjoying himself.

[@flinfaraday1821]

Lekke Jordie!

[@losdelosantosdeleon9009]

Lovely

[@Chingalo2006]

When Jordie and RG, get those URC and Champions Cup medals around their necks this May 2025, nobody will be sneering and scoffing. You don't get to judge a professional who goes outside their comfort zone and test themselves in foreign environments. That critique is left to themselves and their team mates. Watch this space!

[@JDaicos280]

Don't jinx it mate. 3 years in a row

[@Robbie7441]

The ref was absolutely useless, gave everything to leinster, nothing new there I suppose.

[@acea2941]

😎

[@makaveliwest5098]

Then he goes missing in the all black

[@a88senna]

Surely Busby was man of the match, or at least man of the moment in his own head. Barrett should have been red carded, yet it's not looked at. The ineptitude of the officating in this comp is soul destroying.

[@TK_Type2]

womp womp

[@a88senna]

@TK_Type2 good contribution.

[@TK_Type2]

@@a88senna good thing you're not a ref. would have been the softest red card of all time lol

[@a88senna]

@TK_Type2 wouldn't be in the top 100 soft reds.

[@Apocalypse_Dude]

Red card? Harden up mate😂

[@Frozzy_Wozzy]

So basically he dodged a red card on debut and got man of match 😂 EU is making a joke out of rugby

[@TK_Type2]

womp womp

[@puregrunt]

Red card for that 😂 go watch soccer mate

[@m1zzen]

Please keep him over there in Ireland. He might measure up over there but not here in NZ... He only got a black shirt on the tails of his two brothers. If he doesn't have a 12 on his back he will have a tantrum

[@Intergalatikk]

Apply for the attacking job since you got it all figured out from your arm chair then 😂

[@declanmcdonnell6965]

The mere fact that you decided to click on this video tells us that he is missed over there, or you are somehow offended that he chose to ply his trade at Leinster (albeit temporarily.) He wouldn't be an all black if he didn't deserve it.

[@diulikadikaday]

I don’t agree with this. Jordie has consistently done a good job for the ABs. He may not be as much of a superstar as the likes of Savea, Beauden or Jordan, but his versatility and all round skill set means he never makes a mistake.

[@m1zzen]

@@declanmcdonnell6965 there's been plenty of AB's that didn't merit inclusion and JB is one of them.

[@m1zzen]

@@Intergalatikk What a silly comment - I suppose you sit on the floor when watch, if you're not at the game
