Introducing Beauden Barrett's number one fan, Bonny Malone(11).
Bonny's bedroom walls are covered in pictures and newspaper clippings of Barrett and his progress with the Hurricanes. "I am just so impressed about how far he has gone, seeing as he is so young" says Bonny. She also has signed Taranaki rugby and Hurricanes jerseys and she and her family have never missed a game, saying rugby is in their blood. At the All Blacks v France test in New Plymouth Bonny says she "screamed and screamed when Beauden got that final try, I was so happy!".
Bonny enjoys playing rugby at St Patrick's school during lunchtime with friends but says they don't share the same passion for the game.
"If I was ever able to meet [Barrett] my biggest question would be, what have you enjoyed most playing for the All Blacks?"
As Bonny's family has season passes for the Taranaki games, there is hope Bonny will one day get to introduce herself to her idol.
