Newshub's Andrew Gourdie runs through his thoughts on the All Whites 23-man squad named for the OFC Nations Cup.
Coach Anthony Hudson named four uncapped players in his side, but the story might be about who has been left out of the team.
West Ham defender Winston Reid was available, but New Zealand Football chose to rest him given his season of niggly injuries. Tommy Smith ruled himself out of contention and Hudson said the he won't consider selecting the Ipswich defender for future teams given his lack of commitment.
