The Herald on Sunday understands the Highlanders playmaker is unlikely to add to his 16 tests before departing to Wasps at the end of this Super Rugby season. Sopoaga is not expected to be invited to the four All Blacks camps scheduled during the Super Rugby season. It also means no matter how well he plays for the Highlanders this season, Sopoaga is unlikely to be selected for the three-test series against France in June.
