It was only fitting that Beauden Barrett had a deciding say in New Zealands
final Test of 2016.
Nike Air Max 95 .Energised by the half-time
break and led by the rampaging Sebastien Vahaamahina, France had hammered their
way deep into the All Blacks 22 before Barrett spotted his chance.In picking off
Camille Lopezs attempted pass and sprinting the length of the pitch to dot down,
the 25-year-old displayed the attributes that have earned him not only his
countrys No. 10 shirt but also the right to call himself the worlds best
player.Barrett would have you believe it was just a case of right place, right
time. I just sort of got the angle right, he said afterwards. Its one of those
opportunist things, you dont plan it.But that is a typically modest summation.
Lots of players have found themselves in a similar position but few have had the
confidence to stretch out and make an attempt to win the ball, especially with
seven points the inevitable cost of any slip.Barrett is not like other players.
His ability to read the game, even when the pressure is on, is second to none
and he also possesses the hands to snaffle the interception and pace to outrun
even the quickest winger.It is that lethal skillset, allied to an ice-cool head,
that has seen him edge out Aaron Cruden as the successor to All Blacks legend
Dan Carter in that famous No. 10 shirt.He had an X-Factor right from the start,
Mark Anscombe, who gave Barrett his New Zealand under-20s debut, told ESPN. He
could turn a game, he has always had that. His pace and his ability to eye an
opportunity and just back himself -- his confidence to take on what he sees --
is what sets him apart.He doesnt second guess himself. Even back then, if he saw
an opportunity he took it. A very instinctive player, but also very level
headed, a smart footballer who understood the game, read the game well and also
communicated well.Anscombe, who is now Canada coach, describes Barrett as the
ultimate team man and that is something to which his colleagues with the senior
All Blacks would certainly attest.TJ Perenara knows Barrett better than most
having played alongside him since their days with the U20s for club and country.
He has watched his teammate evolve at close quarters, cementing a half-back
partnership at the Hurricanes that has now been transported into the Test
arena.Hes a class act. Hes probably one of the fastest players on the field and
hes got a cool head on him, Perenara said following Saturdays win over France.To
be able to play with him throughout the year its good for the guys around him.
He makes other players look better, and I think thats his biggest strength.Yes,
hes fast, yes, hes a good player himself but the time he gives to other players
and the holes that he puts other players in I think is his best asset.Barretts
rise to All Blacks playmaker and World Rugby Player of the Year has not always
seemed set in stone, though. He was not Anscombes first-choice fly-half when the
Baby Blacks travelled to Italy for the 2011 Junior World Championship.Instead,
the coach -- on the advice of his assistant Chris Boyd -- decided to start his
son, Wales international Gareth Anscombe, at 10 with another future Test
fly-half, Lima Sopoaga, at 12. Barrett anchored a mouth-watering back line at
fullback.We just wanted to have our best players on the park, Anscombe Sr. says.
We always knew that Beauden had that ability to play at 15 because of his speed
[which gives him] opportunity in open space, and thats what we wanted to give
him. It worked out for us.It is a tactic that All Blacks coach Steve Hansen has
transferred to Test rugby, with Barrett switching to the back three when Cruden
came on at the Stade de France on Saturday.According to Anscombe, Barrett just
wants to be out on the park and play, and his lack of ego has definitely given
the All Blacks an interesting attacking option.In turn, his willingness to
sacrifice himself for the good of the team should stand him in good stead as he
continues to work on the one area of real weakness in his game -- goal
kicking.Barrett has enjoyed an encouraging November from the kicking tee,
converting 11 of his 12 attempts at the posts. But the memory of Octobers final
Bledisloe Cup Test, in which he missed three out of three and was replaced early
in the second half, is still raw.Hes human, like everyone, and his work-on
without question is his goal kicking, Anscombe explains.Im sure no one puts more
effort and work into it than he does because thats the kind of diligent guy he
is, but its a weakness in his game. His goal kicking is not international level,
thats the one area in which he slips up.And you can be certain that Barrett will
be working on his kicking, day in, day out ahead of the British & Irish
Lions visit next June. He has always had that dedication, whether as an
eight-year-old tackling GAA in County Meath, Ireland, or as a Baby Black
adapting to a new position.He has had plenty of experienced heads to learn from
too. Having served a three-year apprenticeship under Carter, Barrett can still
call on Cruden and Ian Foster, the All Blacks assistant coach and former Chiefs
fly-half, for advice.Thats the beauty of top teams, you have depth, Anscombe
says. Beauden has been able to spend a lot of time with two great 10s, Carter
and Cruden, not only to challenge himself but to work and talk and discuss what
10s need to do.He adds: Thats the big thing with a lot of these guys; they
havent just turned up at this level. Theyre coachable, they listen, they seek
from others, and hes had some great coaches with him.He takes it on board and is
willing to be challenged and looked at.With that attitude and commitment, rugby
should take note that the worlds best player will only get better.
