Tuiloma hasn't played as a DM in over 10 years. 
I think his skills in tight paces are actually poor, and he can't play with his back to goal. Remember how by dithering he gave away the ball twice in one of his early Nix games, the 2nd time conceding the goal. He'd have to get much fitter/slimmer than he is now.

Rufer would be a huge loss. You'd likely need to replace him with a visa. Talk with the player agents who brought Gallegos and Verstraete to Auckland.

It's a shame that Finn-Conchie hasn't been consistently good enough to cement a spot. But then it took Roofs years to master his craft in midfield. Do the Nix persist with Roa?

I'd add small midfielder Seth Clark (on CCM's books but injured) as another Kiwi worth looking at.
