How will we know if our rookies are named for round 1???

With GWS playing Sydney in round 1 a week before any other teams play how will we know if our rookies that play the week after GWS v Sydney get named before round 1 lockout??

It's called a partial lockout.

Basically you select all your players, for GWS vs Sydney. Once that game is played all those players are locked in, however you can freely trade in/out the players from the other 16 sides. Therefore you don't have to pick them before the squads are selected.

(Is it double partial lockout rd1?)

Is it just me or does anyone else think this could be a shambles if you are not organised? Some public leagues teams could easily have a few donuts from day 1.

Hope all the PR and hype merchants, that are rolled out as experts, explain the lockouts well.

I think i better save a bit of cash so i can shuffle some rooks around if i have to after the partial lockout. Hate not to have enough cash to swap to the rookies who are named if they are a bit more expensive then the one's ive got.
