    NZ Football chance at lucrative Fifa double

    A great boost to the region. If NZ is the host, then one of the other OFC nations will send a representative from Islands. It would be a great boost for some of their U20 teams from the Pacific Islands.

    . . . to be honest I thought that I read in some FIFA document that if a player plays before he was eligible, he risk not being able to represent his adopted country ever. Not that I have recall anyone being in that situation. But I think that there is a cause for some concerns for the player himself rather than the results of a game. I just don't get why player eligibility takes so long, the documents should have been received by the FIFA from OFC and NZF. It's like the Fallon episode all again.

    Why NZF insisted on him playing in that match? They could have waited and field him in some friendly game.

    Go figure . . . I guess NZ wants to prevent Australia from calling him up for their training squad and then toss him to aside while NZ wants him in their team or on the bench at least with a more active role. Now with him actually playingin the All Whites, the Socceroos can't touch him and ruin his chance to play internationally regularly.
