Club career

Before turning professional Barbarouses played for St. Patrick's College 1XI and for semi-professional clubs Wellington Olympic and Miramar Rangers in New Zealand's Central Premier League.

Wellington Phoenix

Barbarouses played 21 matches for Wellington Phoenix in three seasons and scored two goals.

The Phoenix club officially signed Barbarouses as one of its foundation players on 4 May 2007. Seventeen years old and still at school, he started as the club's youngest player.[2] He made his professional debut on 21 October 2007 against Central Coast Mariners, coming on as a substitute in the 86th minute. He played his first full professional game when he fronted against Central Coast Mariners on 19 January 2008.

Barbarouses scored his first professional goal on 18 January 2009 – an equaliser against Adelaide United.

He scored his second A-League goal against Sydney FC on 1 November 2009 after coming off the bench to replace Leo Bertos. He scored the goal off a volley which bounced over Clint Bolton. Barbarouses played his first match starting in the first team line-up against Newcastle Jets on 4 November 2009, assisting Chris Greenacre's goal with a back-heel pass.

Brisbane Roar

Barbarouses turned down a two-year contract extension with Wellington Phoenix in February 2010 in favour of a three-year contract with rival A-League side Brisbane Roar.[3][4] (Barbarouses wanted the opportunity to play more regular football and found Brisbane's youth league attractive. In the 2009–10 season, which took the Phoenix into the finals, Barbarouses had had only three starts, and ten appearances off the bench.)

Barbarouses made his debut for the Roar in Round 1 of the 2010–11 season, starting against Gold Coast United in a 0–0 draw on 8 August 2010. Barbarouses started again against Sydney but couldn't score in a 1–0 win over Sydney FC. He was later substituted for Reinaldo. Barbarouses continued to start for the Brisbane team and did so against his old club, Wellington Phoenix, on 27 August 2010 at Suncorp Stadium. In the 73rd minute he received a through-ball from team-mate Matt McKay and slotted home his first A-League goal for the Brisbane Roar

Barbarouses was named in the 2010-11 A-League All-Star Team after 12 goals in 33 appearances.

Alania Vladikavkaz

On 8 July 2011, it was announced that Barbarouses had signed for Alania Vladikavkaz on a three year contract. Brisbane Roar received $600,000 in the transfer fee.[5][6] He made his debut for the club on 9 August 2011, in a First Division league match against Torpedo Vladimir. He played the full 90 minutes and scored the sole goal of the match, allowing Alania to win 1–0.[7]

International career

U-17

Barbarouses captained New Zealand at the 2007 U-17 World Cup in Korea. He scored five goals, including a hat-trick, during the team's qualifying campaign to ensure progression to the finals.[8]

U-20

As a member of the national Under-20 side he played an integral part in the 2008 OFC U-20 Championship qualification tournament for the 2009 Under-20 World Cup, scoring two goals in the three pool matches. New Zealand did not qualify for the final tournament.[9]

All Whites

OFC Men's Olympic Football Tournament

Barbarouses played for New Zealand at the 2008 OFC Men's Olympic Football Tournament. Although he scored four goals in the five pool matches at this 2008 Beijing Olympics qualifying tournament, Barbarouses was not selected for the final squad to travel to the Games.

World Cup

Barbarouses made his senior debut in a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Fiji on 19 November 2008.[10] He trained with the national team before its World Cup qualifying play-off against Bahrain.

Barbarouses attended a 12-day All Whites training camp in Auckland in April–May 2010 as a member of a 15-man squad of Australasian-based players. He was one of two forwards on the squad.

Barbarouses had stated that he would like to make the New Zealand 2010 FIFA World Cup squad.[11] Although widely tipped to make the final 23-man squad to travel to the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Barbarouses' name was missing when NZFA chairman Frank van Hattum read out the names at Auckland's Sky City on 10 May 2010. He was, however, named as one of seven non-travelling reserves.

2011

A standout first season with newly-crowned A-League champions Brisbane Roar has seen the 21-year-old striker included in the New Zealand squad for a friendly against China in Wuhan on 25 March 2011.

Barbarouses made the 23-man All Whites squad who played against Mexico at altitude in Denver on 2 June (NZT) and Australia in Adelaide on 5 June.
