Brisbane Roar teenager Dane Ingham was born in NSW and lives in Queensland, so he thought long and hard about pledging his international allegiance to New Zealand. Ingham, who is only on a Roar youth team contract, is the bolter in the 23-man senior All Whites squad for a two-leg World Cup qualifying tie against Fiji on March 25 and 28. Dane Ingham admitted it was a "big decision" to choose New Zealand over Australia, particularly after having been invited to a Young Socceroos camp last month in Canberra. "Recently when Dane made his debut for the Roar, for me 20 -30 minutes into the game, I was sold. I had seen enough," Hudson told the New Zealand Football website.
