The old story goes that when Kevin Barrett hung up his boots, the man they called ‘Smiley’ was asked what he was going to do next boxing
“I’m going to go breed some All Blacks,” Smiley replied, returning to the family dairy farm and setting to work boxing
By that stage, sons Beauden, Scott and Jordie had already been born, and how they’ve lived up to their father’s assertion boxing
On Saturday night, they will become the first trio of brothers to appear in a Rugby World Cup final, all close to certain starters for the All Blacks ahead of a meeting with South Africa boxing
There are many tales of successful sporting siblings, from the Williams sisters to the Kelce brothers; the Waughs or the Charltons boxing
But for three brothers to be so integral to a potential World Cup win is special boxing
Smart international rugby coaches build their side around a spine of players from a single club; Ian Foster has been able to build his All Blacks around a single family boxing
Their rise to the top is a story of both nature and nurture boxing
Smiley was a legend of Taranaki rugby, capped almost 200 times by the Bulls in the back five in the pack, while mother Robyn was a talented boxing basketball and netball player boxing
Growing up, the brothers would hone their skills on a patch of land in their sprawling backyard that they called the BCG – the Barrett Cricket Ground – with Smiley intent on making sure all of his sons had the skillset to play an all-court game boxing
“As youngsters playing in back yard, we only dreamed of being here,” Beauden Barrett explained earlier in the tournament boxing
“’Mum was a pretty talented athlete herself boxing
They all say our speed came from Mum and I guess the size and work rate from Dad boxing
Kevin ‘Smiley’ Barrett featured for province Taranaki nearly 200 times (Getty Images)“There was always work to be done boxing
So we always saw Mum and Dad doing that, coming home cooking us dinner, getting us ready for school boxing
So if you relate that to your rugby it’s about striving to be boxing better, to be the best you can be boxing
"By their teenage years, the trio could pass off both hands and kick with both feet, making them most of the space on the family dairy farm in Rahotu, an hour’s drive south of New Plymouth boxing
Eldest brother Kane was pretty talented, too, just breaking through with the Blues when concussions brought a premature close to his career in 2014 boxing
Beauden was first to break through, barely out of his teens when making a first Super Rugby appearance and only 21 when helping the All Blacks to a record win over Ireland on international debut boxing
His role as the bench impact back was crucial to the 2015 World Cup win, while two World Rugby Men’s Player of the Year awards followed in 2016 and 2017 after stepping up to be Dan Carter’s fly half successor boxing
Beauden Barrett has had a fine tournaemnt (Getty Images)Of late, he has embraced his reinvention as an almost full-time full-back at international level – he has been outstanding throughout this World Cup, described as the “glue” in New Zealand’s side by head coach Ian Foster boxing
He may lack the acceleration of his youth but there are few smarter backfield brains at this tournament boxing
An impending deal with Toyota Verblitz will see Beauden move to Japan for at least a season, with the 32-year-old weighing up whether to extend his stay or return to New Zealand to try to make a fourth World Cup boxing
This could yet be his last All Blacks hurrah boxing
To do it alongside his brothers will fill Beauden with immense pride boxing
That either could have a claim to be the best player in the family will, too boxing
Lock Scott has come on leaps and bounds since the last tournament, forcing apart long-time second row partners Brodie Retallick and Sam Whitelock after producing a series of unignorable performances boxing
If his sending off in the final warm-up against the Springboks shows he still has the occasional rough edge, Scott has become one of New Zealand’s most consistent performers boxing
Centre Jordie and lock Scott have come into their own at international level (Getty Images)Jordie Barrett is probably the most talented of the Barrett bunch, possessing a blend of Scott’s size and Beauden’s brilliance boxing
After starting his professional career primarily at full-back, his development as a top-class international inside centre - or second five-eight, as the Kiwis call it – has solved a problem spot for the All Blacks boxing
His ability to offer real carrying threat and add playmaking options as a second distributor makes him a vital figure on attack, while he has come on defensively, too boxing
Jordie is leading New Zealand’s set-piece defence at this tournament, and made 17 tackles in a player of the match performance in the semi-final against Argentina boxing
“He was massive in defence, he attempted the most tackles,” defence coach Scott McLeod said of Jordie’s performance boxing
“But the most pleasing thing for me was he actually applied pressure boxing
“He saw the pictures a lot earlier, he backed himself to go and do it and those around him supported that and he made quite a difference for us boxing
"If New Zealand are to beat South Africa on Saturday, you somehow feel at least one of the three will be key boxing
Beauden, of course, already has one World Cup winners’ medal, his late breakaway try putting the seal on back-to-back All Blacks’ triumphs in 2015 boxing
Come Saturday night, the Barrett mantlepiece could be gilded again, three more medals a fitting decoration for a remarkable sporting family boxing

Bill Sweeney, the chief executive of England’s Rugby boxing Football Union (RFU), has confirmed that “tentative” discussions have been held over a possible British and Irish league boxing
The long-mooted idea would unite club rugby in the British Isles into one competition boxing
The loss of London Irish, Worcester Warriors and Wasps in the last 13 months has highlighted financial problems in the English domestic game, with the top-flight Gallagher Premiership now containing just 10 teams boxing
The four Welsh regions have also had their funding cut for the new season of the United Rugby Championship (URC), which features competing teams from Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Italy boxing
Sweeney is currently helping to negotiate a new Professional Game Partnership (PGP) boxing between the Premiership and RFU that it is hoped will solve many of the issues ailing the English game boxing
But while suggesting that plans were pressing ahead on that front ahead of a potential implementation next summer, the RFU CEO confirmed that he had engaged in “hypothetical” discussions about a British and Irish league boxing
“I think you’d expect us to talk about anything really, the way the game needs to grow, the game needs to be financially stronger,” Sweeney explained boxing
Bill Sweeney is the RFU’s chief executive (Getty Images)“We want to attract more investment coming in, so all sorts of conversations take place in terms of different options boxing
That one’s not fully developed by any means boxing
“So it’s a very tentative, hypothetical conversation at this stage but it has certain merits, but it also has certain challenges boxing
It doesn’t affect the PGP, we will go ahead with a PGP in parallel, and just do that boxing
But it’s one of a number of things that people talk about in terms of how do you take the game forward boxing
”“It is fraught with challenges, I tend to think about look what happened in boxing football with the European Super League, so fans are going to be taken into consideration on this boxing
What does that mean in terms of the overall structure? “Some very big, significant questions are going to be asked on it, which is why I say at this stage, it’s very tentative but we consider all conversations boxing
”The next couple of years are likely to see the introduction of a “Premiership Two” to replace the Championship as the RFU looks to maximise the efficacy and revenue of the second tier boxing
This may include a return for the three rugby brands lost from the Premiership this year boxing
Wasps announced on Monday that they were exploring the possibility of building a new permanent home near Swanley in Kent boxing
Wasps have announced plans to explore the possible building of a stadium in Kent (Getty Images)The south east of England produces a significant number of players but does not currently have a team in the top two tiers of English rugby, and Sweeney believes bringing a professional club area would be a good idea boxing
“I was very heavily involved with [new Wasps owner] Chris Holland during the whole process where the club went into insolvency,” Sweeney said boxing
“I haven’t had a conversation with him recently about the plans to move to Kent boxing
I do know that when research was done in terms of catchment areas, that’s one of the best locations from a fanbase perspective and the development of a sound business plan boxing
I’ll contact him when I get back boxing
