All Blacks to contest Barrett red card

All Blacks coach Ian Foster says they will look to contest Jordie Barrett's red card after the fullback was sent off for putting his boot into the face of Wallabies winger Marika Koroibete yesterday.

Barrett jumped to catch a high ball and his foot made contact with Koroibete in mid-air during the first half of the test.

The All Blacks won with a bonus point to complete a Bledisloe Cup sweep and move to the top of the Rugby Championship standings.

The contact appeared accidental but Australian referee Damon Murphy wasted little time reaching for the card after the incident was replayed on screen.

Foster says they are surprised of the decision.

The All Blacks will take on Argentina at 7.05pm this Sunday.
