Manchester continuing to start for New Zealand

With the Azlan Shah tournament under way, an interesting team sighting is Devon Manchester getting the starts between the sticks. The prefered option it seems, McGregor has not got a game (as far as I'm aware!). Not sure what is happening with Pontifex (I assume he will be retiring soon, unless of course he is continuing to include himself in the Rio games year span).


Game analysis wise, interesting to see a goalie from NZ using the 'X stance'. And felt he should have gone for the first goal with his rhp than glove (over rotation etc.) and I never really get why you would play with an rhp that offers a larger blocking surface if you're not going to use it!!
