please help!!

[ICE MAN]

I Have 7 trades left, $14,000

Team is
Backs:        Goddard, Hodge, Enright, Malceski, Maguire, Nason. (Silvagni, Webberley)
Mids:          Ablett, J. Selwood, Judd, Cooney, Barlow, Trengove. (Martin, JKT)
Rucks:        Sandilands, Hille. (Trengove, Warnock)
Forwards:    Chapman, O'Keefe, Brown, Harvey, Betts, Podsiadly, Varcoe. (Rockliff, Hitchcock)

What do I do?
I am going to down grade Trengove and pick up Gysberts. But not sure what I should do with my other trade, if anything.
OPTION 1 - should I trade Hille to Angus Graham. (Will give me a little more cash to upgrade Maguire and Nason next week)
OPTION 2 - should I down grade warnock to a 83k. (More Cash to upgrade Maguire and Nason next week)
OPTION 3 - should I down grade hitchcock to a cheap forward (More Cash to upgrade Maguire and Nason)
OPTION 4 - should I just do the trengove trade to gysberts and upgrade my defenders next week. I have Trengove from Port to cover Hille in the ruck untill he comes back. (will leave me with 4 trades left, so will be able to upgrade/downgrade 2 players later on.

The problem with options 1, 2 & 3 is that it will only leave me with 3 trades left after I have upgraded my defenders and I will still have Martin in my midfield that needs upgrading.

Any feedback would be great

Ok, Im presuming you are competing for a league win rather than a overall victory.

You have to look at the bigger picture.  Not everyone's team can be improved to its maximum in one week's worth of trading.  You sort of see this in option 2.

I think personally what I'd do is take the risk and sit on the 3 trades after doing the upgrades for a while.  It could be your only option to be a contender towards finals.  Just focus your future selections on durability.

Just from a brief look at your team, I'd probably downgrade trengove to gysberts, and another downgrade.

The other options for me are silvagni/nason > ? take a risk on campbell heath? or even marcus davies?
the Warnock trade in my eyes isn't value enough for you.
I'd rather trade out Betts or Varcoe and play rockliff this round. Leaving you a mountain of cash to upgrade martin to swan/joey and hitcock/rockliff or nason/silvagni to a superstar.

food for thought
