Bit worried ill lose in my first week of finals with no second chance so i'm wondering if i should go all out in the next couple of weeks?

My problems atm are Broughton, Mumford and Goodes. The last two not really performing to how i'd like them to.

5 trades left with about 100k in the bank.

Was thinking of the following trades:

Broughton>Hurn
Redden>Pattison

then next week

Mumford>?
Goodes>?

sucks that i just traded in mummy/goodes but they just aren't doing the job for me. thoughts?

Theres no way I would trade Goodes but Broughton may need to go

Definitely get rid of Broughton this week, but wait and see for Mumford and Goodes. If there are other areas where your team is looking weak, you might want to look at upgrading there first. You should definitely go for broke if you think you are going to lose in your first final. No point having trades left when you have been knocked out.

There are no other areas i need to fix up. These guys i've mentioned are performing the weakest. Lake however will be D7 when/if i trade Broughton out.

It's not a bad strategy if you are concerned about not getting far in the finals. Is Hurn the best you can get though. Who else is in your def?

I can get any player i want for Broughton if i downgrade Redden to Pattison. If i wanted to spend more i would pick Birchall. Picking Hurn would save me about $60k and help fund my other luxury upgrades in first week of finals.

my backline is:

Deledio, Goddard, Scotland, Carrazzo, H.Shaw, BROUGHTON, Lake (S.Shaw, Townsend)

Grimes dt/sc ratio favours dt this year. not overly confident on him. im looking for somebody whose more consistant.

There is another option that would leave my bench cover abit iffy.

Broughton>Birchall
Treloar>Couch if named

Would leave me with $235k in the bank for upgrades in first week of finals.
Bench cover would be:

mid: Gibson,Sexton
fwd: Couch,Murdoch
