The problem will always be the lack of Aussie passport. There is only so many guys the Nix can sign, it is why we need an Auckland team to enter the A-League.
Yipe get the feeling now is enough talent coming through NZ, for 2 ALM teams, fleshed out with 4-5 visas each, plus some Aussies. You'd also presume any new Auckland team, would quickly set themselves up an academy trying to model Weenix
Scott Hales posted when Schrijvers signed for Melb Knights some ALM club should give him a chance, but unless he has that Aus passport it's the Nix, or overseas further afield.
