would be interested to know who's playing at the back. Can't read too much into the limited tweets but doesn't read well.
Also- NZF obviously haven't paid for their media guy to go over. I know there's a budget to run but when your brand is hammered you should be trying to reengage - worth the airfare and mattress.
Few stills and a 20 sec video pan from the grandstand on the Pride FB page.

It reads as though they were Pride focused tweets and they had a total of four chances in 90 minutes. I'm sure there were plenty of chances for NZ that weren't tweeted. Agree the lack of engagement is a huge let down from NZF, do they even have a marketing/media person?
only 2-0? hmmm

Surely I can't be the only one not too surprised by the shark coverage. Classic NZF. Does anyone working for them even realise that some of us are interested in watching how they do... or hear how they do... or read how they do? Jeez, we can't even read how they do!
I see a Williams listed as GK for the Pride, is that Tamiti and if so did he play against us?
Probably unlikely that management would would too much info around starting team to get out.
57' Goal to NZ. Unknown scorer but curling shot thumped past Short from edge of area. (wood?)
Does Unknown Scorer play for Unattached FC?
I think expecting coverage of these games/a media guy to be with them for a camp is a bit much. It's clear they would have preferred all three games to be behind closed doors, but for whatever reason this one had to be public. I just hope a media guy is going to PNG...

Steven Upfold was the previous one - he was a good guy, did a good job at AFF and then did some good things at NZF - new guy is called Daniel Markham, he also was the Marketing and comms guy at AFF first - let's just say he did some good things but the jury was out.

Actually the head of comms is Peter Thorton. Daniel is his assistant.
All Whites: Marinovic (Crocombe 46), Colvey, Fenton (Burfoot 70), Doyle (Wihongi 70), Brotherton, Tzimopoulos (Adams 70), Tuiloma (Ridenton 62), Lewis (Prelvic 62), Patterson (Dyer 62), Rogerson, Fallon

From that I take it Doyle played CB.
And Tzimopoulos in midfield.
Wood? McGlinchey?
Wood? McGlinchey?
My understanding is that yes, McGlinchey would.

tuiloma second goal
western pride summary suggests 5 chances for the pride and 4 for the all whites including 2 goals and a penalty. Patterson the first goal from a free kick - Fallon had his penalty stopped after a hand ball and tuiloma scored on the turn after following up from a corner. 24 hours late but a rough summary of who did what. Pride site has kiwi face planted as their photo of choice from the night. I take full responsibility for any Fallon errors after celebrating his return.
I see by the Brisbane league table that the pride are 8th of around 13 teams. Next opponent for the all whites is sitting 2nd on the table and the last game is against the 5th placed team. Prediction. Draw versus Redlands and close win versus Brisbane city with no clean sheets. Hopefully these two further games will be the ones to help organise our defence?
Wood? McGlinchey?
McGlinchey supposedly was in Brisbane with the side but didn't play vs. Western Pride. Injury concern?
From news report yesterday:
Next week will see "...the arrival of captain Chris Wood, who has 39 international caps, in Brisbane on Wednesday.
Fellow experienced figures Shane Smeltz, Kosta Barbarouses, Marco Rojas and Michael Boxall are all still involved in games with their clubs and will join the squad in Papua New Guinea."
PHOTO ALBUMS: All Whites Auckland training plus Brisbane match photos on the NZ Football website:
Still involved with club matches - which means 4 possible starting players not acclimatising to island conditions - puts a bit of a spanner in what the games are for. Still, the bench will be fit as. Go all whites.
Clayton Lewis out in doping controversy.
Sounds like a storm in a tea cup / better safe than sorry moment.
Salbutamol/Clenbuterol are common (and banned sustances) performance aids (bronchodilators), recently british cycling rider Simon Yates was banned for using one of those (as well big star Alberto Contador a few years before)
Stink news about Clayton Lewis being under investigation for taking over the counter asthma meds.
