To be fair at least Zampa had 2 good enough scores, 1 if you take into account getting bailed out at the end last match. Harper on the other hand I'm not touching with a 10 foot pole. Zampa I'll probably try and avoid as well still but wouldn't rule it out.
Got rid of him round 6 but it was forr Mcdermott unfortunately.
Not sure if I'd get rid of him now but wouldn't be bringing him in.

Scored 691 for the week which saw me drop from 4th to 9th. 13 of the top 20 teams had M.Short with almost all captaining him. 270 points from first with top 3 also seeming to far away with a gap of 200 points. Warner, Maxwell and S.Johnson with the bat were the mvps of the week. Can't believe so many picked a bloke that was $250k coming off a broken too against one of the best bowling lineups in the comp and captained him too. Wasn't even a confirmed in 30 minutes before the game and was always not likely to bowl with his injury. Hard not to get annoyed having such a risky pick go against you but i guess a game with such high variance these picks can pay off. Also poetic that fading him helped me be ranked this high but will also likely be my undoing. Need to decide whether to continue to fade Short and Smith for Hurricanes players or cave and close off the pod. Hopefully get a better indication about Thursdays weather by tomorrow night before most of my team needs to be locked in.

Got very lucky last round having Smith, Maxi and David and have come up the rankings a bit.
Any feedback as always greatly appreciated.
Maxi --> Short
Connolly --> Wade
Green --> Meredith
Have gone wade to bring in a keeper loop for later rounds, going short for the point potential and then Meredith for 4 canes and he has been consistent (and within price range)

Paywall on this one, so text below.
Perth Scorchers will hand a debut to exciting teenage quick Mahli Beardman with their season on the line against Sydney Thunder on Monday night.
The West Australian understands the 19-year-old will play his first match for the club, with Jhye Richardson ruled out.
Cricket Australia and Richardson have chosen to send the paceman for surgery on a troublesome shoulder this week., which means he will miss the final two games of the Scorchers’ regular season and any finals.
Lance Morris missed Saturday’s high-scoring defeat to Sydney Sixers because he was managed by Cricket Australia and is likely to return to the side.
Beardman’s debut means struggling veteran Andrew Tye looks set to miss out.
The pace ace from the State’s South West has played just one one-day game for Western Australia but was a bolt-from-the-blue selection in the national squad that toured the United Kingdom for white-ball matches in October.
He earned his first Scorchers contract this summer after being named player-of-the-final and starring at last year’s Under-19 World Cup.

McDermott replaced in squad by Jake Doran.
Hurricanes Squad v Renegades
After sowing up their finals spot for the first time since BBL|11, the Hurricanes play their last home game of the BBL|14 regular season against the Melbourne Renegades tomorrow night.
Thanks to an Adelaide Strikers win over the Brisbane Heat on Saturday night, the Hurricanes have guaranteed their spot in the finals, and a win tomorrow would see at least one final being played at Ninja Stadium next week.
Strong performances from Riley Meredith (2/30) with the ball, and Tim David (68* off 38 balls) helped the Hurricanes to a huge win in the inaugural Ponting Foundation Game, where vital funds and awareness were raised for Tasmanian families, whose children have cancer. Chasing a tough total of 164 against the Sydney Thunder, the Hurricanes managed to reach the Thunder's target with 19 balls to spare.
The Renegades come into this matchup on the bottom of the BBL Ladder but defeated the Hurricanes in their first match of BBL|14 in Geelong where the Purple Army were unfortunately bowled out for 74 runs.
Ben McDermott is being managed for this match after injuring his hamstring, while Nathan Ellis passed concussion protocols and is available for selection.
Coming into the squad for McDermott is Jake Doran, who last played for the Hurricanes in BBL|09, and will be raring for an opportunity to take on the Melbourne Renegades.
The Hobart Hurricanes fixture against the Melbourne Renegades begins at 7.30 pm tomorrow night, fifteen minutes later than the usual starting time for previous matches.
The Hurricanes fourteen-man squad consists of:
Nathan Ellis (c)
Marcus Bean
Nikhil Chaudhary
Tim David
Paddy Dooley
Jake Doran
Peter Hatzoglou
Caleb Jewell
Chris Jordan (O/S)
Riley Meredith
Mitch Owen
Billy Stanlake
Matthew Wade
Charlie Wakim
