I have come up with five players who I would consider bringing in to my backline this week.

Nick Malceski

Average: 87
3 round average: 96
5 round average: 91
Breakeven: 92

Pros: Malceski has had a great year, and is definitely in All-Australian contention. His recent form isn't too bad, but he is coming off a 64 against the Eagles at Paterson's Stadium. He plays four out of the next six games in Sydney, so he doesn't have the worst draw either.

Cons: He can be quite inconsistent, with a 56, 49 and a 64 this season.

Michael Johnson

Average: 82
3 round average: 86
5 round average: 89
Breakeven: 132

Pros: He is a risk/reward option and a big POD with 2% ownership. He is coming off a 68 and 77, but he has a good draw going into September and DT finals - Adelaide at Paterson's, Carlton at Etihad, GWS at Paterson's, Demons at the MCG, Port at Paterson's, Saints at Etihad.

Cons: He isn't in good form and like Malceski, can be inconsistent.

Corey Enright

Average: 88
3 round average: 82
5 round average: 86
Breakeven: 115

Pros: An incredibly reliable and consistent performer, has 6% ownership, therefore he is a POD.

Cons: Coming off a 64 against the Crows on a rare down day for him and his team. Also he may get a rest going into September.

Ricky Henderson

Average: 78
3 round average: 109
5 round average: 89
Breakeven: 13

Pros: A very risky option but is in career-best form at the moment. Last four games - 105, 89, 106 and 133.

Cons: Has never really been a DT option in the past, therefore he is somewhat of an unknown prospect.

Trent McKenzie

Average: 88
3 round average: 92
5 round average: 87
Breakeven: 59

Pros: Has had a good season and only dropped below 80 once this season. Plays Melbourne and the Giants.

Cons: Doesn't have a huge ceiling with a high of 114 and an average of 88.

What do you guys think? There is no real straightforward option

Would have voted Enright for his consistancy but voted Mckenzie as I think he will score more for the rest of the season due to his draw.
I have Goodes in my Centrebet and Sportsbet teams and will trade him for Mckenzie
