he was in the squad for a window in the last two years I'm pretty sure. So if he has, it's a recent thing. Also would be odd for a coach to be silent on such a thing

Has Storm Roux made himself unavailable for the AWs ala Fitzgerald (that's one that really got away, curse you Ricki)?  

He's been over looked so often (like Rufer) that I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he's quit the AWs but kept it quiet.
 I'm not really sure if a player would quit the All Whites if he wanted to play but wasn't being selected.  Surely you'd say nothing publicly and if you're selected then great, and if not then its the status quo.

Surely Roux love to go to a World Cup. He's playing at a level, he'll always be a chance, if seemingly on the outer currently. So why would you quit. 

Maybe he just didn't get on with Hay & Bazeley (who was Hay's assistant prior). We have no idea. And even if that was the case, no guarantee Baze will be there in 2026 - if the AWs say have some terrible results next 12 months. 

I don't watch the Mariners at all. Is Roux a standout? Is he manifestly better than Ingham at the Jets? Seems Bindon is going to play RB against Egypt anyway, so Bazeley can't have a huge amount of confidence in BMIngham, a specialist RB.
