All Blacks coach Ian Foster has acknowledged standout performers Caleb Clarke and Beauden Barrett after the pair spearheaded his side's 27-7 win over the Wallabies at Eden Park.

Clarke and Barrett were both nightmares for the Wallabies defence as they made multiple line-breaks throughout the contest.

Barrett returned to the All Blacks' line-up after missing last week's 16-16 draw with an achilles injury, but showed he can still add to the team's efforts in the No.15 jersey despite some critics wanting him to play at first-five.



21-year-old Clarke even earned a standing ovation from the Eden Park crowd as he left the field after his first run on test.
