The comings and goings at New Zealand Football Championship clubs have thrown up some expected and unexpected changes.
In a surprise move, Canterbury United's Blair Scadden is off overseas.
He has been replaced by Kris Bright, who will not see much immediate action because he is a member of the
New Zealand under-20 team who will play in the forthcoming Oceania Championships.
Waitakere United have let third choice goalkeeper Roy Bell go but he will continue to train with the squad and Paul Bunbury has opted out for business reasons.
They have been replaced in the 28-man squad by former youth internationals Craig Wylie and Allan Pearce, although only Pearce has been named in the team for tomorrow's home game against Canterbury.
Auckland City have welcomed Brad Scott, Glen Eie and John Eley, who have replaced injured Heath McCormack, Rupesh Puna and Jonathan Rowe.
Youth international Wayne Rooker has been let go at Team Wellington, as has Steve Gully. Raf de Gregorio has joined Mick Waitt's team.
