Are there any potential bolters we should notice? Someone sticking their hand up in auck wgtn chch?
18 man squad - Paulsen, Sims/Gray, Sheridan, Surman, Bindon, Hughes, LK-H, Sutton, Dibley-Dias, Stamenic, Garbett, Old, Herdman, Van Hattum, Waine.
3 overage guys from - Cacace, Payne, Singh & Wood
4 travelling reserves - Sims/Gray, Conchie, Jessie Randall, Lachlan Bayliss (Jets).
Bidois in the mix. Ronan Wynne & Willem Ebbinge at US Colleges on the fringe. Same guys in NZ like Lobo, Strong & Lee. Linder at Vancouver II.
But unless you are in a pro environment you have little to no chance. The leap to then potentially playing the best young players from France or the USA is just too huge.
Jessie Randall likely the strongest chance from the NZ Domestic leagues - but in reality he's only at Olympic waiting for Auckland FC to announce their squad.
