Opinion Player X vs. Player Y

I'd go Boak. I just can't get excited about Ryan. I've been disappointed by many many Freo SC defenders in my time. Stephen Hill plays defence as well and is a chance to come back this week or next. I wonder if that changes anything for Ryan.
Blakely I see as a possible midfielder so I am very keen to bring him in, he'd probably be my only other consideration to those two at a cheaper price.

D Clarke and J Sicily (replacing N Answerth and B Smith)
VS
B Bewley and J Dunkley (replacing N Answerth and L Baker)
Current def: J Lloyd, R Laird, H Andrews, Z Williams, B Smith, M Hore, (X Duursma, R Gardner)
Current fwd: P Dangerfield, T Kelly, I Heeney, R Gray, J Westhoff, L Baker (C Burgess, R Young)
D Clarke option will involve Setters and Baker out for Dunkley and Hately next round whereas B Bewley and J Dunkley would allow Setterfield to become Clarke and cash to be used for 1 of B Smith to J Sicily, Goldy to M Gawn via a B Smith to P Naish downgrade or cash kept for Duursma to Hurn after byes with Smith kept longer.

Thanks. Hadn’t really considered Daniel as Dunkley was the main target and annoyed I selected the Hoff over him in RD8 and his ceiling compensating for the Hoff and Gray being situated at F5 and F6 was an appealing factor. Regarding Daniel he possess most of the characteristics I value such as high disposal efficiency, tendency to kick rather than handball thus decreasing his dependence on amassing a large amount of the ball.
Therefore Daniel and Gray would be selected this week joining T Kelly, Danger, I Heeney and the Hoff as well as D Clarke in the mids. B Smith would be kept an extra week and will likely make way next round for J Sicily/L Ryan.

I think that all sounds like a good plan 
I do have Dunkley, but think he's closer to a 100 avg given his role changes. He had a shift to more fwd time in R9 when I brought him and I was fearing the worst.
Daniel seems likely to push 100 avg too given his role as the designated kicker, I think I'd be happy enough to save the money and take Daniel.
