Trade or Hold?

Not sure what to do this week

Have 4 trades left and 160K in the bank

My two weak spots are Gray at M8 and Burton and F6

Each trade will probably net me 100-175 points for the year so is that worth a trade?


Leaning towards upgrading Gray as I still have ruck cover in Nank and since I can't afford Kruezer I'm not that keen on Gawn or Goldy.

Can you post your full team?

3 of the 4 past weeks for Gray have been 100+ so I'd hold

Burton I'd probably want to get off the field

I'd just use 1 trade and upgrade Burton to Goldy or Gawn

Then, in 2 weeks or so time use the remaining cash to upgrade Greenwood in 1 trade to Rocky/Sloane/Hanners etc and loop that player with Gray for M8

EDIT, just realised you couldn't do that last part as you have no DPP in mids  :-X

Moving Ryder to forwards and bringing Gawn/Goldy in makes your team look very good and only uses 1 trade

Another option is to wait a week for Greenwood to go up a bit then I could trade him to Gawn which leaves Burton as cover for fwds and backs.

With out DPP in the mids Greenwood isn't as valuable to me compared to others

Looking at your team there I reckon that's what I'd wait to do, assuming Greenwood comes back in.

Burton covering both forward and defence would be really handy seeing as you don't have a FWD/MID player to link Greenwood with in the midfield.

Actually Burton could cover all 4 lines, if a mid was out Witherden could swap with Lloyd/Adams

Yeah I think that's what I'll do, will just have to ride the Gray roller coaster for another month haha

Smart move I reckon, really solid cover with Burton.

Gray hasn't been all that bad, plus he's always a fun player to watch (when he's on)
