Ardie Savea has nailed his colours to the mast in terms of his favourite Barrett brother, unsurprisingly naming Hurricanes teammate Jordie as his preferred sibling.

Having missed the opening two matches of the new Super Rugby Aotearoa competition, in which the Hurricanes lost to both the Blues and Crusaders, the Wellington side are unbeaten in their three matches with Barrett in the side.

Savea says there is something in the Barrett blood, they are great players and great men.

He adds Jordie can do things that none of the brothers can do.

The Hurricanes will play the Crusaders at 7.05pm while the Chiefs will play the Blues at 3.35pm Sunday.
