Will 5 Trades be enough to hold onto for the remainder of the season (avoiding injury of course)?

I have 7 at the moment and $18,700 in the bank but want to make a double trade this week...

MAGUIRE to ROBERTON and then Upgrade HUNT to GILBERT or GILBEE?

With this squad what do you think?

Backs: Hodge, Goddard, Enright, Shaw, Kennelly, Waters, Hunt (Maguire /Webberley)
Mids: Ablett, Selwood, Pendlebury, Boyd, Judd, Barlow (Martin/Kayler-Thompson)
Rucks: Cox, Trengove (Hille/Warnock)
Forwards: Chapman, Brown, O’Keefe, Hall, Podsiadly, Goodes, Didak (Gumbleton/Griffiths)

hope so in a similar boat with 7 trades left

yeah, as long as you get fairly lucky with injuries your bench cover isnt too bad. i wouldnt get roberton... i would be looking at strijk or koby stevens as downgrade options maybe even andrew moore when he is back

you guys are deep, i have 7 now cause i just traded in razzo. but $219000 in the bank

hold iof for couple of weeks - 5 isnt many when you are only at half way point of season - think how many trades you have had to use in first half to cover injury - riewoldt,maguire etc

look at strijk (77k) in couple of weeks (much safer) and then upgrade hunt to gilbee or gilbert, but being a cats fan why not kelly?????

5 isnt a lot but you will have a pretty settled side.  Just means no trading for 4 - 6 weeks (apart from LTI's)

5 enough provided you get Hille and Maguire back in a couple.
Not looking good for Maguire and who knows when Hille is back!?
If your goin' for league though Id say thats fine but if you were trying to get your highest possible overall placing you would have drop em!

cant wait for the strijk downgrade, but i will probably end up with 6 trades left with over 100k in bank.

And thought my 8 trades left was a little bit of a worry! Might make 1 trade this round tho.

I've got 5 left and 150k in the bank, will downgrade to Strijk or Koby when they are on the bubble and use the last 4 to upgrade premiums to better premiums come finals time. Will take donuts at this stage, in decent positions in my comps.
