Byes for the Nix around FIFA windows (Oct, Nov & March 2025) would be useful.
Them and AFC would make the strongest cases, of being affected by international callups. Though for a change over this ALM season the AWs will be playing nearby, either in NZ or in the Islands.
But yeah Bazeley would appreciate having his Nix & AFC players well rested for the crunch March 2025 window - OFC World Cup qualifying semi & final. Always a chance some of his Euro based players will arrive late, be carrying niggles etc. So if his ALM guys come in rested & well prepared off a bye, that will be handy for those high stakes games.
