      Haven't read the article yet, but Kitson is one of the better rugby writers in the UK. Hope he isn't going down the Mick Cleary click-bait route.

          It’s s good article and the points are fair.

          Biggest problem is writing for the guardian

                  @jegga he was around with Rob Andrew.

                  Barnes was more likely to run the ball.

                  Think he was a victim of that '89 (?) defeat to Scotland where Englang smashed the 5N but lost the GS decider at Edinburgh.

                  They were fun to watch that year, (and when they tore Aus apart at the end of 88).

                  Barnes was at 10 for those good games.

                  England decided to go with Andrew after that and got really boring.

                  But he's become a typical NH troll once he hit the media. (I recall he gained some respect in NZ 2011 by being relatively fair and balanced, but lost it come the Final where his desired result became apparent .)

                  Barnes was also a midweeker for the 1993 Lions in NZ. He played for Bath, which was the most expansive English club team of that era.

                      Weird to think he has two rwc winners medals and people like Umaga and Jonah have none .

                        McCaw must be twice as good as him now then ?

                                      Almost as good a quiz question as the name of the US player who played for the ABs when they were en-route to the UK in 1967.. (or was it '72?)

                                      Don't know the name....

                                        and never capped! Great quiz question

                                        Almost as good a quiz question as the name of the US player who played for the ABs when they were en-route to the UK in 1967.. (or was it '72?)

                                        Don't know the name....

                                        @Victor-Meldrew all blacks.com has no AB's born in North America.

                                        I have also checked the team lists for the matches played in Nth America (British Colombia & Eastern Canada in 67 and BC and New York in 72) and there are no one-off caps or players that weren't established NZ provincial players.

                                        I do recall a (Kiwi born) one off ring in against Western Australia at some stage but can't find him.

                                        I also fondly remember as a young boy a photo in the 72/73 Post Tour Magazine of a group of AB's (Wyllie, Sutherland, Norton...) out at a Bavarian Beer Hall in 72. They were being served by a very buxom wench who was leaning forward over their table. Not one of the AB's was looking at the camera
