So i've got 326k in the bank and trades to burn!

do i play the short game and trade out Lumumba and Vanderberg for Tich and McDonald, getting in two keepers this week?

Or do i play the longer game and d/g Lumumba to Lever and Vanderberg to either Tich (saving more cash) or Parker (saving less cash). Means i generate more cash with Lever, but don't get a premo in McDonald this week.

Thoughts?

Double upgrade sounds good to me

Lever isn't a must, and that much cash is better spent getting you points than sitting in the kitty missing out on points

I've got a very similar position and a lot depends upon your season to date and what your aims are. Ive broken it down into three questions that I think need to be answered

1. Are you in the hunt for overall?  If so you need as many premiums as soon as possible.
2. If you are going for league, then what is your ladder position? If your doing well, downgrade and/or save trades
3. What is your bye structure and which trade/players work best for the upcoming byes

It probably all sounds pretty straightforward but each trade is a winner in the right situation

If all you care about is your rank at the end of the year, then you are always in the hunt for overall.

League only. I'm top on both but also don't want to miss the premos at the current prices.  Think I'm sold on double upgrade. Tich and Mcdonald the way to go?
