So it's a double edged sword, particularly for lower ranked players, they get to play roughly where they like but they have less chance of being picked up if they do nominate a state!
I'm not sure if they have to nominate a state or not. I know you could nominate 2 (or more?) states previously and not sure if thats changed.
Point is, top end talent want to play where they want to play and you can't get a player who hasn't nominated for your pool. ie Prespakis and Geelong.
