Well done on your strong start!
I think you could trade Cartwright for Siddle if you wanted? I’d rather not trade Cartwright, but think he’s less of a keeper and less of a cash cow than NCN.
Alternately could you bring in Handscomb instead of Nielsen? I feel I need a Fletcher replacement too, and was even considering Carey in case he played the second game of this DGR. I’ve largely landed on Handscomb instead, but haven’t seriously considered Nielsen given JS risks.

I think I've settled on:
Fletcher -> Handscomb
Zampa -> Khan
Hussain -> Renshaw
Means my team will be:
Handscomb (Pfeffer)
Short, Jacks, Weatherald, Maxi, Renshaw (Edwards, Bryant)
Khan, Worrall, Meredith, Ellis and then either Christian or NCN (looped if Bartlett doesn't get named).
5 Hurricanes and 4 Strikers, plus can hold NCN for cash gen and Maxi for the SGRs coming up. Only thing that'll change this plan is if I need to get a cheapie for extra cash to facilitate trades for round 3...

I like how you've found a way to keep both NCN & Maxi, Worrall tends to swing the bowl early in the innings which may trouble the out of form Short and rusty Jacks, with your Bartlett pick would you consider Hatzoglou? I'm not sure when the return of Boyce is, but Hatz looked quite good and troubling against Perth, a few more games under his belt and he will have more control of his few loose deliveries he has the Thunder & Perth again in round 6 which I like for him but not quite sure if he will still be in the team
Faulkner Vs Siddle
Both similar price. Owning 3 of the top 4 hurricanes batters means I should be hoping the strikers bowlers fail meaning I should lean towards Faulkner. Or do I split the middle and get Siddle?

Is there any concern over Khan and his two match ups with Hobart this round?
Avg vs Opp is 21.8, I know he's got the double and he hardly has a shocker so the odds of him doing that two games in a row would be rare. They're also playing Briggs and I think I seen somewhere on here before that they played together and it hindered Khans score quite considerably, I know it would be brave to leave him out but would it be insane not too take him this week?

It's a good question but for me, the back to back DGRs are a huge selling point as you have to think he posts some strong scores over 4 games (keeping in mind he's pretty handy with the bat too and should get a hit or two in there as well). It's also a case of who you play instead - do they perform any better? or free up enough cash to be useful? The fact that every man and his dog will have Khan means even if he fails you don't lose much ground, but the opportunity to cash in on not having him if he fails could disappear if the replacement player/players also struggle. I'm all for risk taking and going against the flow, but not getting Khan feels like a whole lot of risk for not much potential reward!

I think that I need to play the break even game this early in the season, particularly when I’m holding Jacks who is likely to lose more value.
Therefore I am going to hold Cartwright, who I was planning to trade, and move him to the bench. It means that I need to look for a cheapie with my third trade and fix Fraser-McGurk. I am guessing Hussain won’t be right by Wednesday, so can use him to play a loop in my bowlers. My thinking is to bring in David and make him emergency - no points expectation, just benefit from his cash gen - I can then loop him with NCN if he does snag another decent score in either of his matches.
