The Manawatu and Blues first five has been selected in the Maori All Blacks squad for their end of year tour after returning to the field via the Mitre 10 Cup.
Black was overlooked for Steve Hansen's 51-man All Blacks squad, with Canterbury pivot Brett Cameron preferred as the fourth choice first-five.
Black says being selected for the All Blacks wasn't something he'd really looked into.
He says he hasn't played a lot of footy this year so to be selected for the Maori is great.
