Beauden Barrett and his brother Scott are being chased by English Premiership clubs following the Rugby World Cup, with Bristol Bears among the sides reported to be interested in signing the pair. The All Blacks brothers are attracting attention from multiple clubs in what appears to be a hotly contested recruitment push.

For now, Beauden Barrett has his mind firmly on New Zealand duties. He is part of the All Blacks squad going up against the Wallabies in the opening Bledisloe Cup test at Eden Park on 10 October 2026, a match coach Scott Robertson described as one of his hardest squads to select yet.
