3 (presumably older) guys have returned from the USA & Canada though. That must add some experience. Who knows come sometime next year they could end up playing in the A League. Weren't there previously some big raps on Raimbault?

The squad will also feature returning Academy players in Thomas
Raimbault (Vancouver Whitecaps), Liam Moore (Loyola University/Eastern
Suburbs) and Kieran Richards (East Tennessee University).
Now that Kiwis can fly to NSW/NT/SA/VIC without quarantine/MI, some of these Weenix kids can be flown over to join the senior side if required without having to spend 2 weeks in a hotel. That's some welcome good news.
