All Blacks counting the cost of opening test win over France
The All Blacks are counting the cost of the opening test win over France with captain Scott Barrett in doubt for Saturday's second test in Wellington. Barrett left the field with an achilles issue in last weekend's 31-27 victory in Dunedin last, with the injury initially described as a niggle. It now seems more serious with All Blacks coach Scott Robertson saying an update will be provided tomorrow. Rugby reporter Joe Porter spoke to Lisa Owen.
