Hey guys, my team is:

Hodge, Eski, Goddard, Enright, Gilbert, Dempsey, Harbrow
Webberly, Silvagni

Ablett, Swan, Boyd, Gibbs, Trengove, Mitchell
Gysberts, Shuey

Sandilands, McIntosh
Trengove, Warnock

Harvey, ROkeefe, Gia, Pods, Fyfe, Rockliff, Waite
Henderson, Davis

Not sure what to do - have $120k and 6 trades, so have a few options.

Am sitting 6th in my league, tough game this week, but 2 easier ones to finish, wont finish top 4, but will make it. Is a tough and close league, so still looking to make a charge.

Thinking on upgrading Fyfe to Pav, and maybe Dempsey to Duffield, then wait the 2 weeks and do two double trades first two weeks of finals, with Henderson and Webbs traded for rookies for cash.

Thoughts??

You have plenty of cash, thus you might want to consider something more strategic and from left field?
I really like your plan as it is, but if you can't make top four and with two easy games coming up you might want to consider catching the top four opponents off-guard by trading in those premiums as you begin finals.
No trade this week, then Webbs to rookie collect $ against weak opponent and a week after go Henderson to rookie collect $ against weak opponent. (or vice versa).
They won't see it coming.
Do you then have enough time to make the difference? maybe.
Do you have the spare cash to make up the difference between Pav now and Pav later? Yes.

Thanks for the posts guys, and now with Trengove out, I am one short in the mids, despite having 27 players picked. Very frustrating.

Should the trade now be Trengove to Pavlich, which gives MPP in the mids, and then wait the two weeks before double downgrade first 2 weeks of finals, or take McRooster advise and just play one short this week, cop a likely loss, get Trengove and Gysberts back next week, then have 6 trades to go bang, bang, bang!!!!

Thanks Prospector

Will do the Trengove --> Pav

Will then have 5 trades, 2 sneaky ones for cash next 2 weeks as suggested by McRooster, and then bang, first week of finals, two guns come in, and get us rolling.

Will then have 1 for a LTI if needed. (touch wood)
