He returned to Oceania with Auckland FC, winning the A-League Premiership, before joining National League side Braintree Town. A vastly experienced centre-back and former All Whites captain, he is the squad's elder statesman at the back.

- Became New Zealand's youngest-ever captain when he led the side against El Salvador in 2012
