Not a fan of the heppell pick. Beams is good value but very injury prone. Crouch with a minor crack in his hand... steer clear. Adams is probably the best of that group.
Neale is a gun and might do well over the next 5 weeks with Fyfe out. Shuey is excellent value if he maintains a 100+ average.
Definitely the 2nd option for me.

I’m tossing up between Kelly and Neale as Fyfe replacements. Essentially I just want the best available.
I’m thinking Kelly is a slightly better SC player, and that Neale won’t have Sandi hitting it down his throat near term (albeit he didn’t for most of 2016 either).
Would anyone have a strong view to the contrary?

Not sure why your fonts are appearing super small on my phone but after straining my eyes, I think Kelly edges it out slightly over Neale if you're comfortable that he's over the groin issue. Does Neale face any potential taggers in the next few? He is almost certainly to be the first tagged with Fyfe gone.
Second one for me but if you were willing to gamble and had the cash/injury trades Crouch and Beams could potentially net you quite a few more points.
Odd one about the font, curious to know what happened there.
I initially liked Neale but hadn’t considered the Sandi factor and the tag to a lesser extent. Kelly is a prettty safe option with much less variance...the groin is a small concern but then again everyone seems to have some kind of niggle at this stage of the year.

I don’t really feel like Richards to Hurley is a worthwhile upgrade tbh.

My initial thought is to concur with Tamuhawk on the provision that you have cover for Fyfe.
I don't believe overall ambition is your primary focus now (sorry) so I would guard those precious two remaining trades until such a time when you absolutely need to use them, either to win an important league match to guarantee finals (depending on how you're tracking for finals) or for that inevitable killer trade during SC finals!
