The Barrett brothers

Rugby fans will have the opportunity this week to see the Barrett brothers go head to head when the Hurricanes host the Blues in Wellington in the Super Rugby Aotearoa.

With devastating speed, and smart game management, Beauden Barrett has been in an electrifying form for the Blues this season and he is currently fourth on the All Blacks all-time Test points-scoring list.

Jordie made his return to rugby against the Chiefs and played a crucial role in their 25-18 victory kicking a 60 metre penalty.

The two brothers were supposed to meet in Round 1 but due to a knee injury, Jordie was ruled out of the final 23-team.

The Hurricanes will take on the Blues at 7.05pm Saturday while the Highlanders will face the Chiefs at 3.35pm Sunday.
