I agree with you liberty. I was more asking questions and starting a conversation. I am really surprised that he has not popped up more in conversation considering he is one of the few full time professional footballers at his age that we have. Its funny how so many teams wanted him and the Phoenix got him, now none of the national sides want him. I just find it amazing that no one across 2 age group NZ teams think he is good enough.
Which other teams wanted him? Also, Hudson is the only one picking NZ mens rep teams now, so it's only one man's view. The kid's a good player, Ernie thought so; just didn't have the opportunity to play him (or Rufer) last season.
