Constructive Criticism Please.

As this is my first year everybody kept saying the most important thing is saving TRADES, TRADES, TRADES. I didn't listen!! Although I think that my team is O.K, approaching finals I am sitting in 2nd and would like to win my family league.

I am happy with Puopolo/Pederson to sit as my 7th back, and Krakouer/Mzungu/I.Smith as my 7th forward. And baring injuries I am hoping to cash in Hibberd and upgrade Heppell right before the GF, don't know if this is the best plan, but my weak point is my backline. Should I burn my trades now and hope for the best, or stick with my plan?

Any ideas or thoughts to help me win would be greatly appreciated :P

B: Goddard, Gibbs, Deledio, Enright, Adcock, Heppell, Puopolo (Pederson, Buckley, Jacobs)
M: Swan, Ablett, Pendlebury, Selwood, Boyd, Cotchin (Hibberd, I.Smith, Atley)
R: Cox, Sandilands (Vickery, Z.Smith)
F: N.Riewoldt, Franklin, Pavlich, O'Keefe, Rioli, Sylvia, Krakouer (Mzungu, Darling, Callinan)

Salary: $56,100    Trades: 2 (trades are just god damn tempting)

Look at who your next 2 league matches are against. I've got 2 trades left, but don't HAVE to trade to win rounds 18 & 20. If trades are gold now, then imagine what they will be like come round 21-24.

if your sitting 2nd right now, you can probably afford to sit on trades all the way to finals.

I would be holding onto them 2 trades for the fianls for sure. You will need them in the finals and it's hard to not trade but you just have to control yourself! lol

hold them mate, get in the top four (seems you probs will)
then use them as needed in finals!

[fever]

you absolutely need to save your trades

[almax]

yep, save em.
you want to play all premiums during finals and with your team you have a few premiums who have finals byes.

If you win your first finals game, Selwood and Enright wont matter, then you just gotta worry about replacing Gibbs the next round and possibly upgrading Heppel in the final round.

So basically, you are relying on no injuries and that you win the first round of finals.
If either of these things happen, you're flowered!

save your trades until the last week and then upgrade pup and krak
