Flanders vs Hewitt vs J Cameron as a Ziebull replacement if required?
Flanders, rest are pretty mediocre options in comparison in my personal opinion.

Not sure what Hewett's role is this week tbh and I dont think Jezza is fully fit, mail is pretty strong that surgery at the end of the year is likely.

LDU vs Steele vs Parish vs Brayshaw vs Libba

Keep in mind i still need to do one last upgrade, so cash is still quite key

Don't you have something like 7-8 trades? I wouldn't expect cash to be an issue with that many trades.

Going to say LDU. Wouldn't surprise me if any of these 5 ends up as the best option from here on though.

Final trade so no cash consideration - LDU v Ryan v Houston

Houston the lowest rest risk, Ryan with the scoring history but tough draw, LDU with the fresh legs after a mid season injury? All of them with very similar 3rd averages but Ryan and LDU also have stronger 5rd averages.

If Houston plays, I would pick him (saw a tweet in another thread he missed training due to illness). Highly doubt he misses, but if he does, probably LDU as he is a bit more consistent than Ryan.

One trade left - $587,800 to spend. Will be on field, or potenti

Tossing up between;
Neale, Docherty, Cripps, Jelly, Parish, Curnow.

Neale probably used to feel the safe choice but he's had some pretty average games.
Doch and Cripps you feel have to score in the Carlton side with no Cerra or Walsh.
Jelly always an interesting POD
Parish is a pig on his day.
Curnow the riskier option but he's on fire at the moment with the Blues on a roll.

Parish and the Dons have a great next two weeks - WCE and North which could be a difference maker.
Probably leaning that way but interested to hear thoughts.

I think I agree, of these 6, Parish. He hasn't been going quite as well as I thought he might since returning, but he hasn't been bad, and hasn't really had any unacceptable scores. Don't love any of the picks, but you expect that much at that price.
