It's a pity James Sicily got injured because he was a lock for the AA team. He still gets in at this stage based on his overall body of work. He isn't disqualified just because he got hurt. Someone still has to overtake him over the remaining rounds.
Blake Hardwick is also coming into contention for the 40 man squad as a small defender. He's been great this year.
Jack Gunston has been really consistent and probably flying under the radar. Underrated.
