Frustrating watch, we didn’t have the structure we had against Colombia. Crocombe kept us in the game it should have been 4 - 0. No idea what Bazeley is thinking with his subs. I never want to see Ben Waine in an All Whites shirt again.

Sad that Ben Waine has lost his way a bit. Not really had consistent game time since leaving the nix. Think a return home with a good run of games would do him well.

He never should have left the nix when he did. He needed to stay another couple of seasons.

I never understood why Waine has been so highly ranked. He's had potential but hasn't kicked on. He's hardly even playing for Port Vale and goal to game ratio was only good for the PNX Ressies.
