Starting to reach the interesting point of the week again. Will anyone start to come through from the AO players, and add to our list? Or maybe from the junior or wheelchair ranks?

Remember, anyone can add a player to the list, just quote the last list, add your player name and a reason, edit and tidy up the post and Bobs your Uncle

Nominations will close Sunday night, 28th January.

Business end of week 3 of 4 in January. No one coming through from AO yet, too soon. But any candidates from elsewhere? Add them to the list and repost with some supporting logic!
