After outstanding form for the Hurricanes, Jordie Barrett is in line for a test debut against the Lions.

Jordie Barrett will join brothers Beauden and Scott in a remarkable family treble in the All Blacks rugby squad to play Samoa and the British and Irish Lions.

The utility back joins his Hurricanes team-mate Ngani Laumape as the uncapped players in the 33-man squad named by coach Steve Hansen on Thursday.

The three Barretts toured with the All Blacks last year but Jordie went as an 'apprentice' and didn't play a test.

They are the first sibling trio to be named in the same All Blacks squad and will be just the fourth set of three brothers to play for the All Blacks, following the Brownlie and Nicholls brothers in the 1920s and the Whitelocks in recent years.

Laumape was rewarded for his blockbusting form for the Hurricanes at second five-eighth, and edged out Malakai Fekitoa in a tight midfield race, joining Anton Lienert-Brown, Sonny Bill Williams and Ryan Crotty who remains under an injury cloud.

Williams and wing Rieko Ioane, who made his test debut last year, both starred for the Blues in their win over the Lions, while team-mate Steven Luatua also played well but missed out.

Hansen labelled it the toughest squad the selectors had to pick, with UK-bound Luatua, Fekitoa and Chiefs fullback Damian McKenzie among the unlucky ones.

CHRIS SKELTON/ FAIRFAX NZ All Blacks selectors Ian Foster, Steve Hansen and Grant Fox, announce the squad to face the Lions.

"Obviously, it's a very special occasion for the Barrett and Laumape families, with Jordie and Ngani being selected for the first time. Jordie has been in outstanding form, he has a skillset which is complete and has a great running and kicking game. Ngani too has been impressive throughout the Super season and has forced his way in through commanding performances," Hansen said in a statement.

"This has been by far the toughest team that we've had to select for some time and some players who are in very good form missed out, and we always feel for them. But as is the nature of test rugby I'm sure a number of them will get an opportunity, if not in this series, then throughout the season."

Hooker Dane Coles was named despite having struggled with concussion, and Hansen admitted he was highly unlikely to play in the three-test Lions series. Coles hasn't played since mid-March and was unable to shake concussion symptoms.

Fellow hooker Liam Coltman was named among five standby players along with Vaea Fifita, Jack Goodhue, Akira Ioane and Matt Todd.

The Samoa test is next Friday and the Lions series opener is also at Auckland's Eden Park on June 24.
