Beauden Barrett might not always wear it on his jersey, but he's still a '10' in the eyes of Japanese fans.
A Japanese magazine has ranked the All Blacks star as one of the three best looking players at the Rugby World Cup after he accumulated some of the highest votes in a top-three poll on Japanese TV station Channel Four.

Barrett joined Wallaby James O'Connor and Scotland's Greig Laidlaw in the box trifecta of best-looking players as revealed by a Japanese journalist during an Australia press conference.
After being made aware of the rankings, O'Connor was asked whether he had a career change in mind before laughing and making clear he didn't have any plans for the catwalk, adding politely: "I am flattered, thank you."
