Charles Piutau believes his decision to move to Europe played a part in his surprise omission from the All Blacks World Cup squad.
The 24‑year‑old utility was deemed the unluckiest player to miss out on Steve Hansen's 31‑man group that went on to defend their crown in England earlier this month.
Piutau said he was assured by Hansen that his departure was not behind his World Cup snub, although he is still not convinced that is the case.
