Scott Barrett (born 20 November 1993) is a New Zealand rugby union player who currently plays as a lock for the Crusaders in Super Rugby and Canterbury in the ITM Cup.
Raised in a rugby household, where older brothers Beauden and Kane also went on to become professional rugby players, Scott Barrett cut his teeth playing for Francis Douglas Memorial College in his native New Plymouth.
He got his big break in June 2014, when he was named in a Crusaders side shorn of its international players which played a midweek match against the touring England national team. The result did not turn out as Barrett would have liked, however when the Super Rugby season resumed following the mid-year internationals he gained his first full cap for the Crusaders. Injuries to international second-row forwards Sam Whitelock and Luke Romano saw Barrett named on the replacements bench for the match against the Blues on 5 July 2014. He came on as a 74th minute replacement for Jimmy Tupou in a 21-13 win for his side.
Barrett was a member of the New Zealand Under 20 team which participated in the 2013 IRB Junior World Championship in France where he made 3 appearances in total.
Scott Barrett made his debut for the All Blacks squad against Ireland on November 5, 2016, in Chicago. Barrett came on as a substitute early in the second half for Jerome Kaino. He scored his first international try during that match, with the try converted by his older brother Beauden. The match was a historic loss to Ireland, the final score 40-29.
