Do good things come to those who wait?

7 trades left and $1,500 in the bank. Sititng top in all my leagues and overall around 350ish.

Def: Enright, Gibbs, Puopolo, Fisher, Goddard, Lower, Buckley (Nicholson, Deledio, Newman)
Mid: Ablett, Boyd, Judd, Pendlebury, Priddis, Swan (Jacobs, Goodes, Irons)
Ruck: Cox, Jamar (McCauley, Tippett)
For: Chapman, Pavlich, Franklin, Rioli, Petrie, Mzungu, Talia (Richardson, Oâ€™Keefe, Riewoldt. N)

Canâ€™t afford BROUGHTON at this stage who would be the ideal replacement.
Do I wait a week and see if there are better rookie downgrades next week to get BROUGHTON or trade in one of the following for NEWMAN:

SUCKLING â€" (96.57Avg) â€" Injury worries?
BIRCHALL â€" (95.38Avg) â€" Consistency?
ADCOCK â€" (91.53Avg) â€" Injury worries/Consistency
GRUNDY â€" (90.88Avg) - Unique/Consistency

A common trend...seems there is not alot around...

With the luxury of trades, I would pull the trigger.

IMO, Newman > Martin this week.

Nice position to be in!

Newman to Suckling I reckon

straight swap to stefan martin.
also downgrade puoplolo to a rookie. should leave about 220k in the bank.

next week upgrade lower to broughton and jamar to goldstein/ mcevoy/mumford.

edit: prob cant afford goldstein. either way, the mummy is back in form.

Which rookies are around to downgrade Puopolo to?

Ive had a look at Martin, very unique! My only concern is injury or general soreness next week. If I held off I'd have bonus trades for next week and possible 5 going into the first week of the finals.

Stupid question...Is it possible to have too many trades?

any rookie, just cheapest option. they wont be playing but you've got buckley/nicholson for cover.

dont know why you'd think martin has injury question marks. i think he's fine.

well if you had 7 trades with 3 rounds left and you havent finished your team then yeah, but i think having 3 left and a "complete" team is a fine spot to be in.

edit: mcgovern from WCE so you can MPP talia from the fwds if you need.

Not Martin with general soreness just players from teams in general and if any of my players get injured this week.

Not sure what to do to tell you the truth...
