All Whites coach Darren Bazeley is surprised to have a fully fit squad to choose from for tonight's World Cup qualifying contest against Fiji in Wellington

The 23 players have assembled from America, Europe and Australasia to push to be Oceania's direct entry into next year's 48-nation event in North America.
