2023 ANZ Premiership: Team of the Week – Round 11
THE penultimate 2023 Rookie Me Central ANZ Premiership Team of the Week is in with one new fresh face and each player having only played the one match in Round 11. The one debutant this week, with the Pulse’s Fa’amu Ioane making her first Team of the Week for 2023. There is also almost every team included in this team, with the Magic the only one of the six teams not represented in this week’s team.
With only one more week left of the season after this, some players are running out of weeks to show why they should be off to the World Cup, some regular faces popping up in the Team of the Week may mean there is plenty to think about for the Silver Ferns’ coaching staff as they gear up to pick their squad.
