Current Team

Backs- Gibbs  Deledio  Goddard  Duffield R Murphy  Adcock  Grundy  (L Thompson  Poo  Jacobs)

Mid- Boyd Pendles Mitchell Swan Ablett Foley  (Harris Hibberd Mzungu)

Ruck- Cox  Kruezer  (Smith  Derickx)

Fowards-  Pav Sylvia  Zaharakis  Dawes  Rioli  Dangerfield  Krakouer  (Lynch  Prestia  Harper)

130k in bank and 10 trades, going for my league win
Trading in Kreuzer was foolish but i love the man and couldnt help it
Im kind of stuck at the moment, got decent players all over but not sure who to chop and change. Foley could go for an ultra premo or maybe look at upgrading Dangerfield or Krak after cashing in a rookie or two? Too many tough calls! Can someone make my life a little easier? :)

Alright team for the amount of trades but Kreuzer was a shocker, considering you're going for a League win. You need to look at upgrading soon but no urgency on any one player. Just get players who are on the bubble, i.e. Smith -> Lobbe and Danger/Krak/Harris -> Callinan.

Also worth considering is if Foley starts for you or covers for byes & injuries. Seeing the trades you have you could upgrade Harris for an "ultra premo" leaving Foley to cover for byes and be downgraded late in the finals. However, only Boyd & Mitchell have byes coming up in that midfield. Again, Foley is playing well enough for now that you may as well keep starting him instead of doing something unnecessary.

first thing i noticed is that u have r.murphy and grundy both in your backs, since they are mpp back/fwd  u should of had one in the forward line.  so maybe there is someone who has that mpp link that you can trade into your fwds . even a rookie and wouldnt matter if they dont play.  so maybe lynch--->mpp rookie   ,  i like the idea of upgrading harris and keep foley as a 7th mid to cover byes.
i dont know how bad rioli's injury is,  so that may be a concern
im not a fan of the forward line,but it is certainly unique,, i think you need atleast one upgrade there

considering u are going for league (and going on the principle you are comfortably gunna make top 4)   leave 6 trades for finals, and just double trade the two weeks leading into them.
   
if you are struggling to make top 4 then u should trade sooner rather then later, but still leave 6

and if u are struggling to make top 8,  then trade hard and hope
