Jordie Barrett Out for All Blacks Tour
News summary

New Zealand centre Jordie Barrett has sustained medial collateral ligament damage in his left knee and will miss the upcoming match against Australia, raising doubts about his participation in the All Blacks' northern hemisphere tour. The 27-year-old, set to join Leinster in December, limped off at half-time during New Zealand's 31-28 victory over Australia. An All Blacks spokesperson confirmed that Barrett will be reassessed before the tour, which includes matches against England, Ireland, France, and Italy. Anton Lienert-Brown is expected to replace him for the final Rugby Championship test in Wellington. New Zealand's chances of retaining the Rugby Championship title are already dashed, with the team unable to recover from previous losses. The All Blacks will next face Japan on October 26 before heading to Europe.
