'I actually went up and thanked him': Lesson All Blacks will take into Pumas contest

The All Blacks beat the Springboks 35-22 in the second Test in Johannesburg. Jordie Barrett's team won the match thanks to the work of his teammates. The All Black's next match is against the Pumas at Orangetheory Stadium on Saturday. The Pums beat Wallabies 48-17 in San Juan last weekend. They are renowned for their high ball game. Barrett was watching their training clips on the computer yesterday. He believes they are outstanding in air. It is a lesson he will take into the game with Argentina. His brother Scott Barrett led the charge on South Africa's No 9s.
