and a couple of players ruled out of the comp with injury

new squad

which I think means that only the 2 Melbourne teams still have places available. 1 place each and no-one has signed Dottin. I wonder if that might change?

Dottin, it seems, is off to play in the Indian version along with Wyatt and Ecclestone, so that answers that question

I'm in

Taylor (AS)
Jonassen (BH)
Brunt (MS)
Sciver (MS)
Devine (PS)
Graham (PS)
Perry (SS)
Kapp (SS)
DvN (SS)
Knight (ST)
Johnson (ST)

As it stands, I'm going to win this easily

not long to go to get teams in
