Which Decision

[Ringo]

Pretty self explanatory

Bit of background though
Current Team:
DEF: B. Goddard, B. Deledio M. Johnson, D Heppell ,P Hanley,  A. Rance, L.Spurr(S.Shaw, G Broughton)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, N Dal Santo, T. Rockliff,  M Priddis, J Selwood, S Pendlebury,(S Gibson; H Crozier)
RUC: S Jacobs, J. Giles (J Reddan, O Stephenson)
FWD: D. Martin, B Harvey, P. Dangerfield, A Goodes, D Zorko  S Sidebottom, A Treloar(T Couch,L. Franklin )
2 trades and $74k

In the 5 leagues I am in currently sitting 4th, 5th, 9th on %, 12th 1 game and % and 12th 1 game and % out of the eight.  League I am 9th in is the most important to me and play Team 14 this week and Team 6 to finish.

Question is with Sidebottom sidelined now as well do I burn 1 trade and go Buddy to Beams to avoid donuts and improve position leaving one trade and 1ook or sit still with 2 trades and suck it up.
There is also a rsik that Spurr may not play given the extended bench so if that is the case later maybe decision is made as I cn not afford to carry 2 donuts.

Thank You for voting, commenting.

Have a look at the line up for the team coming 14th that you play this weekend. If you think it's likely that they will also have a donut or two I'd sit tight. 

I would be really hesitant about going to one trade now, and would only do it if you were convinced that you must in order to get the win. 

Good luck Ringo.

Not sure what you mean by going Buddy to Sidey, but I would sit tight.

i think he might mean buddy to beams. Check how many zeros the guy has then make your trades

Personally i would sit tight.
Hopefully your team shares the same potential donuts as your rival (ranked 14), check out his side and estimate the amount of donuts he will have (assume he makes two good trades).
You then have some quality coming back next week sidey, franklin (hopefully) and broughton (*couch*) or shaw.

If you felt the desperate need to do something this week i would still consider keeping sidebottom and franklin.
You should look at bolstering your bench.
you could afford crozier->baguley and gibson->winderlich.
gives you plenty of depth, increases your dpp flexibility .....but scares the hell out of me risk wise.
does get you out of a bind this week though (keep in mind winder will most likely be the sub but 40odd points is better than none)

good luck!

yeah voted sit tight.

if u were playing the 6th place team this week then maybe, but both franklin and side should be back next week.

you should ultimately have ambitions to use those trades for upgrading giles
