    It must be said that Iwuala has somewhat vindicated Wazza Dazzler. If he had not asked for homebased players to be included in the SE, Iwuala would likely not have been invited, and it would have been a real shame, considering what he accomplished in the little time he was given.
    Having said that, the best policy is to select the best players, wherever they may be found. With that policy, Iwuala would likely still have been selected, at least put on standby. The challenge for Rohr is to come up with a way to effectively monitor home based players.
