Pretty hard to agrue much with that list. Though Tzanev should be there. He was in the AWs October last year, and is clearly a better keeper currently than Gould, Crocombe and Searle who are all there.
Someone like Kyle Adams (given potentially 3 AWs CBs could be retiring in the new WC cycle) is also a lot closer to the AWs I'd wager that that J-H Sinclair, who needs to become a Nix squaddie first, before getting near the AWs. If Nix are not looking at him now that McGarry has left, they'll never pick him up.
Ryan Thomas also a bit low at 14, but yeah he hasn't played for the national team since 2019. Hasn't Greive come from nowhere to be in the top 10.
So overall is at least 50 men's NZ players playing pro football. Howieson & Sinclair the only amateurs on that list.
