CENTRE Jordie Barrett could be a doubt for New Zealand’s autumn Tests against England and Ireland after suffering a knee injury, it was reported today.

Barrett will miss the All Blacks’ Rugby Championship finale against Australia in Wellington on Saturday.

He was hurt during a 31-28 victory over the Wallabies last weekend, and New Zealand Rugby has confirmed a medial collateral ligament injury, adding that Barrett will be reassessed before the Northern Hemisphere tour.
