I watched Saint Kents play Dilworth in round 1 of the Knockout Cup, and although a huge score line, there were a few really tidy players in the Dilworth side. I wonder if he plays club senior men though, as most of the lower tier schools better players do here in Auckland.

This selection though raises the age old issue of two tiers of football representation, as none of the Under 17s from last years Chile campaign or those in the current 20s wider squad still at school, trialled for this tour. But great to give more lads exposure at the next level.
