WATCH: Barrett vs Daly long-range kicking challenge is just insane

BY Shaywaterworth  ·  Sunday May 23, 2021

All Blacks star Jordie Barrett and England’s Elliot Daly took on a kicking competition with World Rugby to try and beat the record for the longest penalty kick in Test match history.

The record, set by Paul Thorburn in the 1980s, currently stands at 64.2m and as two of the game’s biggest place kickers the pair were invited to face off against each other.

Each player got five attempts to kick the longest penalty they could and they made light work of 60m before moving the kicking tee backwards.
