EDINBURGH, Scotland (AP) — Brothers Scott and Jordie Barrett were ruled out by injuries on Monday from New Zealand's rugby test against Scotland at Murrayfield this weekend.
Both had to be replaced in the first quarter against Ireland in Chicago on Saturday though the All Blacks prevailed 26-13.
Scott, the captain, limped off in the third minute with a badly cut leg.
Jordie, the inside center, was replaced in the 16th after a high ankle sprain and left knee ligament damage.
The third brother, flyhalf Beauden, finished the game.
“My bros are a bit beaten up,” Beauden said afterward. ”I was super proud and happy with how we responded. I could have let that rattle me, seeing my two bros go off."
