Brad Scott, Gareth Rowe, Ross Nicholson and Noah Hickey are Centrals representatives in the national squad to play at the Merdeka tournament in Malaysia. We wish them well and hope they do New Zealand and their club proud. It will be tough for the club while they are away, with the Chatham Cup semi-final to be played during their absence.
The return of Mathew Urlovic will help, but it will still be a big ask for all the players to get a result.
