@Enough said - Legend mate. Thank you.

When it said four senior players were involved, I had a feeling Tuiloma and possibly Michael Boxall would have been involved in there somewhere too, so a little surprised at Joe Bell being the fourth - Show's me how much he cares about pulling on the shirt, which is exactly the kind of commitment I want to see. 

Full credit to all four of those involved. Something definitely needs to change. The response from NZF sounds, at best a bit tearse and somewhat predictable.

Pragnell has already hung his hat on this saying there will be regular games going forward, so if March rolls around and there is nothing forthcoming should we be expecting a resignation?

Lots at stake over the coming 6 months or so you feel.

People can be unimpressed by Bell's performances over these last two friendlies, but he deserves respect for this. It shows that while he may be part of the younger generation coming through the All Whites, he's not afraid to step up and join the likes of Wood, Reid, and Tuiloma in wanting better from NZF.

People can be unimpressed by Bell's performances over these last two friendlies, but you have to give him respect for this. This act of commitment and leadership shows why he could be a future All Whites captain.
