Which epic trade option?

[its me lads]

currently 9 trades left and looking at some trades.
OPTION 1   OUT: Bugg, Mcdonald IN: Suckling, Gibson +126k
OPTION 2   OUT: Mcdonald, Porplyzia IN: Gibson, Beams +25k
OPTION 3   OUT: Mcdonald, Hall  IN: Gibson, O'hanlon +383k

My backline currently is Waters, Deledio, Goddard, Broughton, Heppel, Hargrave, Bugg (Ellis, Shaw) so obviously it needs strengthening.

(if Gibson and O'hanlon are named) option 3 will give me a ton of cash for my final upgrades.
i was leaning towards option 1. i thought the porp0ise might have a big one for his 100th so i was going to hold him for a week.
if i get beams my forward line will be Franklin, Robinson, Dangerfield, Chapman, Sidebottom, Beams, Martin, Zorko, Hall

martin and zorko will be competing for a spot on the field.

Have to agree here..showed some last year and since coming into the magpie side this year hasn't skipped a beat...

you need beams, but you need a stronger backline more!

I'd go for Scotland/Shaw/Carrots though before Suckling. If it has to be a hawk, i'd go Birchal.

I definately need a stronger Backline, Carrots is the plan next week but i prefer Suckling over Scotland and Shaw because he is cheaper and Shaw dogged me last year.

All the best teams will have beams, he is a must to win, he is in mine ;)

Hardly call any of these trades epic more like regulation

i wouldnt either, just helps to grabs people's attention, too many people on here ask all the time but dont help or share their opinions with anyone else.

Maybe strengthen the backs/other areas?

Zorko at D7 is in no rush to be relegated to the bench.  :P

my team is (before trades)
DEF: B Deledio, B Goddard, B Waters, G Broughton, D Heppell, R Hargrave T Bugg, (B Ellis, S Shaw)

MID: M Boyd, J Watson, S Thompson, D Swan, J Redden, S Mitchell, (A Sexton, J Mcdonald)

RUCK: S Jacobs, J Giles, (O Stephenson, J Redden)

FWD: S Sidebottom, L Franklin, P Chapman, M Robinson, P Dangerfield, J Porplyzia , D Zorko, (D Martin, A Hall)

my backline needs the most help, as much as i would love to bring beams in this week he will have to wait.

Option 2 for mine. Beams a must have but option 1 could help you more sooner.

Just Heater and Beams when you can Itsme.. :o

Thinking out loud here...
Ellis' price will increase, breakeven is only around 20 and Bugg will lose cash breakeven 60ish. 
Hargrave will lose cash, break even is over 100.

Beams is going to increase in price this week, breakeven around 88. 
Suckling will most likely stay around the price he is on.
Carazzo will lose money.

It makes it difficult to chose your timing. Whats the best way to do it? Maybe lose Hargrave this round. I think that would be the best option to maximise your trading efficiency and not waste an extra trade later on.

Beams would look sexy in your forward line, but as it stands i think Suckling (Or whoever you end up chosing) and Carrazzo the week after would be much sexier   :-*

Im saying this because i think the benefit of a double upgrade in the backs now will help you more than getting Beams in now. Your forward line isnt too bad at the moment, and Zorko's score just keeps rocketing up, so will make it easier to get Beams later on if need be.

[its me lads]

yeah thats true, i worked it out i will able to get more premiums in with less trades if i dont grab Beams and help out the Backline, it will also help my scoring in the long run.
