And just FYI, when the Australasians get around to selecting their 15-man squad, they'll need to include at least 3 New Zealanders (

) to go with all those Australians. Picking the sole Fijian (

) in their squad is optional.​

As I can't manage the Netherlands, I would like to manage South Africa.

 

[Sami Kumar]

Looks like I'm a little late. Since Argentina is the only team left unpicked, I'll take it .

Updated the performance timeline on post 207.

I guess since I have 16 players ill leave out AGK Salter.

You'll need to cut three players from your squad to bring it down to 15.


I guess that's everyone but @themusketeer.
