Chris

A rest week includes not training and being away from the squad,So Barrett probably trained all week to play against Moana so it does not count as a rest week.

They've been quite good at defending mauls at least, haven't they?

I'm not convinced the Reds players were supporting their bodyweight at that turnover.
