Jordan Matthew "Jordie" Barrett (born 17 February 1997) is a New Zealand rugby union player who currently plays as a centre or fullback for the Hurricanes in the Super Rugby competition.[1]

Barrett has represented New Zealand at age-grade level, being apart of the 2016 under-20 side that took part at the World Championships in England. He was selected for New Zealand's historic series against the British and Irish Lions in 2017, making his test debut against Samoa in a warm-up match. Barrett represents Taranaki at provincial level, previously playing for Canterbury during their 2016 Ranfurly Shield tenure and Mitre 10 Cup champions. He also was awarded New Zealand age-grade player and Mitre 10 Cup player of the year.

Early life

Born and raised in a rugby household, his older brothers Beauden, Scott and Kane also went on to become professional rugby players. His father Kevin 'Smiley' Barrett was an uncompromising loose forward for Taranaki, playing 167 games for the amber and blacks. Jordie played in the Canterbury Metro senior rugby tournament for Lincoln University.[2] He also represented his school, Francis Douglas Memorial College just like his brothers before him. [3]

Club career

2016–17

Barrett signed with Canterbury for their 2016 Mitre 10 Cup campaign. He made his debut coming off the bench, but found himself making the starting match-day 23 throughout the year. Barrett began to impress, following up a solid showing against Tasman in just his second game at provincial level. A 25-point haul was his reward for a quality performance.[4] Overall Barrett gained 12 appearances for the side and scored 123 points, as well as winning the sides eighth Mitre 10 Cup title after their 43–27 victory over the Tasman in the 2016 grand final and also retaining the Ranfurly Shield.[5] After his stand-out year, he featured at the New Zealand Rugby Awards, winning the age grade and Mitre 10 Cup player of the year.[6]

In September 2016, Barrett signed a two-year deal with the Hurricanes in Super Rugby.[7] He made his debut starting at fullback against the Sunwolves. Barrett became a regular starter following the injury of teammate Nehe Milner-Skudder, which saw him produce one of rugby's great burglaries after he scored the Hurricanes second try in their Super Rugby clash against the Stormers. A grubber-kick into the Stormers goal area, saw Nizaam Carr getting to the ball first, as Barrett challenged him and planted it down, just inside the dead ball line.[8] After being selected for New Zealand and continuing his form for the Hurricanes, Barrett was released to play against the British and Irish Lions midweek match. Featuring at fullback, Barrett was apart of a historic draw against the touring team. He ended with a try assist after a perfect pass to Wes Goosen to score and kicked nine points.[9]

Whilst an apprentice in the New Zealand national team during their northern hemisphere tour, Barrett signed with Taranaki for 2017.[10]

International career

2016–17

Barrett was a member of the New Zealand Under 20 team which participated in the 2016 World Rugby Under 20 Championship in England where he made 3 appearances in total scoring 52 points including one try.[11][12] He played for the NZu20 side in May 2016 in the Oceania Championship on the Gold Coast against Australia.[13]

In October 2016, he was included in the All Blacks side for the 2016 Autumn Internationals as an "apprentice".[14]

In June 2017, Barrett was named in the All Blacks squad for the British and Irish Lions tour, along with brothers Beauden and Scott.
