The result of Round 16 have seen further movement among our Rookie Rankings as we continue through the home stretch, with four players shuffling spots in the wake of the weekend's action.

A Crows defender has moved back into the top three in place of a Suns spark, while a returning Roo continued his fine form following a break thanks to the bye rounds.

A West Coast onballer, Brisbane father-son selection and Hawks defender all picked up honourable mentions for their efforts in Round 16.

Round 16 Honourable Mentions:
Elijah Hewett (West Coast)
Jaspa Fletcher (Brisbane)
Josh Weddle (Hawthorn)

6. George Wardlaw (+1)

With the Roos returning to action after a week off, Wardlaw showed no signs of slowing down from his scintillating start in the blue and white, playing an integral role in North Melbourne's engine room against Adelaide.

The Oakleigh Chargers product managed to level his career-high haul of 22 disposals in Saturday's defeat, where he found himself up against brute ball winners Rory Laird and Jordan Dawson.

The inside onballer has continued to impress with each passing week and is sure to continue his rise thanks to the return of teammate Luke Davies-Uniacke in the middle.
