Yep, did u mention the wins Barnes was a part of, no.
The 2 wins were in Bledisloe dead rubbers and while u can argue the tri nations means something the world cup took that good feeling away.
Neither player is a nightmare or problem for the all blacks and I doubt they lose sleep about either being selected.
Australian selectors need to decide what game plan were playing, ignore form and just pick the players they think they can mould into a winning combination.
Barnes has only been part of one win in the past 2 years when he came off the bench in Hong Kong.........
