Have the states squads been finalised for this season yet? I ask this because i havent heard much of any players switching states this season. Is it just that its too soon for state switching to occur, or has there been none, or have i just missed it all?? I have only heard that Shane Watson, Matt Elliott and Ian Harvey have all agreed to remain with there current state sides, but no news of anyone going to another state.

I haven't heard anything since Hussey and Campbell were rumoured to be leaving WA. I think they both ended up signing. Some fringe players might swap states but the big names will stay put.
I think we will see a lot of youth blooded this year, especially the southern states.
Surprised that Brad Yound wasn't given a SACA contract. Anyone know why?
Looking forward to seeing how Mark Cosgrove develops over the next year or so and also whether Rofe can take the next step. Could be a pivotal year for the Redbacks after last years dismal efforts.

Andy Flower with the Redbacks. Not sure why Brad Young didn't get a contract perhaps because he always seems to be injured, I rated him early in his career but he hasn't really lived up to the expectations I had for him.
