Joining Asia wont be happening. All there is to be gained from joining Asia would be the possibility of Nix playing ACL, the AWs playing in the Asia cup in place of Oceania cup, and harder qualification births for World Cups, Confeds cup, and Olympics. NZF football maintain there are more benefits to staying in Oceania than there are moving to Asia. We'd be playing more WC qualification matches, but we wouldnt be playing anymore friendlies ($$$). And what would the cost be of playing more of these WC qual games anyway? Id imagine it to be huge.
Cannot see Nix joining ACL ever. Cant see FFA changing their import rules to suit a Kiwi outfit which could ultimately see an Aussie club lose a place in the ACL.
