In a week without any great rookie options it doesn’t seem like there are any rookies screaming out to be picked and also a lock into our sides. There are good performers in the reserve leagues but at the moment, teams seem to be getting fairly settled.

Thanks Pete!
An underrated and essential read. One I get to every week but often forget to comment on.
Great stuff, Al.
Gross hard done by – agree. He, Hall and Brock all play again at some point – probably in that order. I’m not phased.
Great work Alza
