After making grand finals in my first two years of Super Coach with no trades left and losing both years because of donuts, I made the decision that I'd prefer to win the minor premiership than lose the major, and so for the last two years I was careful to use trades sparingly during the year.

Last year I had 7 at the beginning of the finals. I won all my prelims and so one was wasted, I used it anyway t bring in Cyril who didn't ply n the granny and so it was wasted regardless. I won all my grand finals by having no donuts, whilst my opponents were a veritable Krispy Kreme. I was in one cash lague so walked off with $300.

This year I had six, and once again have won all my prelims, so I'll sit out using any this week and have four to use in the final two weeks (fingers crossed I make at least one granny). Two cash leagues this year, one worth $340 and one worth $1000, and $600 for a runner up.

Anyone else saved their trades for the time of the year it matters most?

i have 3, im plannin on 1 more downgrade and then ill have enough cash to use last two trades as upgrades. i have the week off this week, but still may do my downgrade this week so i can double upgrade the week b4 the gf. it would leave me with no trades if i were to win that final though. the league is close though id rather lose in the gf than lose b4 it if it came down to trades

I'd prefer to make the top 8 than win the minor premiership...It's like winning the NAB cup vs the AFL premiership...

Have 3, wasted one last week on Chappy->Fyfe...

Still deciding on the to do this week though...

really wanted a high finish in top 1k

finished top 4 in all 5 leagues only have 1 game this week other 4 have the week off

my second season this year next year plan to hold trades and fly under the radar in my leagues for the 1st half of the season then try to sneak into the top 4

Minor premiership would be like kissing your sister I'd reckon.
Got to be in the real show (top 8) Would rather be kissing a supermodel and be limp (no trades).
