how many trades to win the league?

[sunny_side_down]

how many trades will you be keeping for finals time... note this is for people ONLY interested in winning the league...
judging from experience i had 6 last season and was knocked out in straight sets, looking back i should have used 3 of them and set my team up a bit better thru the season

[kyle9600]

last year i had none and knocked of everybody  :D
Brian lake saved me in the Grand final but this year i will definetly have 3-4

[Bedlam]

Last year I went in with two and bowed out in 2 weeks (top 4)

Guy who won used 8 in the finals.

Think I'll be keeping at least 6

Hoping to hold onto 5 barring any major mishaps, will probably end up with 4 though.

As long as your lucky with injuries and you have culled your non performing rookies and mid pricers you dont need a single trade.

What happens if the team you are playing is in the same position thats where trades would come in handy to upgrade a lower premium say Didak -> Chappy or Gibbs -> Judd to get the upper hand over your opponent

Well even with 6 trades last year didn't help when saits rested 5-6 players all of whom I had!  :'(

2 trades max couldn't help me! lol

This year I have no more then 4 players from any 1 team and looking to have 4 trades come finals. trade for injuries only.

My team is very much set and currentley 5-0 so bring on finals!  ;D

The first year when this comp started I won my league without any trades after the week off !

Not likely to ever have that sort of luck again

[roo boys!]

Were you perhaps the only one in the league shepp? ;D

I am aiming to have 3 left, maybe 4

[PROUD.LION]

surly in the finals you get more trades to trade out the non finalist teams?

Won my league last year. Made 2 trades last roster match, then 2 trades 1st week of finals. Had  2nd week off and had 1 trade for coverage in final two weeks.

Must be your first year doing SC...

SC finals are played during rounds 19-22

Last year I had 1 trade left for about the last 8 rounds, including finals. Lost the grand final  :'(

I went into finals last year with 2 trades (left my team for half the year but fixed it up half way through the season). Ended up losing by 1 point in both leagues.

Will be keeping hopefully 4 for finals. 2 at a bare minimum as I know guys in my league will be packing :-X.

[roo boys!]

1 point in both? Owwwwww

I went down in my semi by 12 cos of some Collingwood player (can't remember who?). Not happy Jan
