Congrats to all selected. Also special congrats to Camps as vice captain. He has been brilliant recently.

The Swell have 5 in the squad. Could be an issue for the Round 18 game but it is a massive boost to the club and a tribute to our recent form.

Delighted to be selected, I would have thought I needed another season's solid work to even be in the reckoning for such a match. Will be plenty to do in the back four against New Zealand, no doubt, who are a quality international side. We need that kind of matching if we're going to improve. :)

Congratulations to all selected, hope you show these Kiwi's a thing or two, and that CW Land will be a force to be reckoned with in the Oceana region :)

A bit disappointed the improved performances of Power haven't resulted in more players in the squad. Good luck to everyone who made the squad and i hope Blake's and Andy's recent good form can result in them getting a starting spot.

Very happy to be selected, though also dissapointed to be missing out on playing for the Swell at a crucial stage in the season. Congrats to Camps for being the new VC as well.

Very, very disapointed to have been left out of the squad. I guess it's understandable given that I let in 10 goals the other round, but I thought I handled myself well enough in the first international to get another chance.
