The Auckland video on FB is well done, purely for stoking rivalry.

Woud comes across like a Twit, but I think that's the point a little. 

Showed my 12 year old and hes more fired up than ever!!
Surely that's him definitely out of the national team for squad cohesion alone. I know it's a silly little promo and you shouldn't read much into it it, but he's essentially saying that none of our players are worth even a squad role on Auckland's roster. Be tough to walk into the All Whites camp with Rufer, Tuiloma, Singh and Payne after publicly saying their shark

Odd bloke. He must put his hand up for it, because you never see Nando, Sakai, or FdV in these sharkhousing videos

Woud is actually an on paper chance to be the 3rd AWs keeper in March.

Sail out injured, Sims fighting to be the starting GK at GAIS with Swedish season to start straight after the FIFA window, and Gray at relegation threatened Harrogate in L2 - a league where some games are postponed for FIFA windows and some ain't.


Might come down to a pick between Woud & Tzanev (squad keeper at Huddersfield). And yeah as JJ says why bother bringing a mouthy very fringe World Cup candidate into the AWs setup, at the risk of upsetting some other more important national team squad members.
