Burn two trades and chance it in finals or save one?

Franklin -> Beams (leaving $373,500 for Broughton replacement e.g. Johnson, Hurn, Lake, Guerra)
0 (0%)
Broughton -> Shaw/Heppell/Johnson and hold onto Franklin running with Smedts in the forwards
2 (33.3%)
Broughton -> Waters and Franklin -> S.Johnson, Whitecross, Fyfe, Martin or anyone $467,300
4 (66.7%)

Last two trades and $71,000 in the bank.
A loss this week could have me out of the 8 (shocking luck), anyway should I make moves to clear the money that is sitting on my bench and who should I get that will smash it this week and remain hot for finals?

Backs: Deledio, Scotland, Suckling, Goddard, Adcock, Carrazzo, Smedts (Broughton, Shaw)
Mids: Swan, Boyd, Ablett, Mitchell, Selwood, Pendlebury (Gibson, Miles)
Rucks: Cox, Maric (Redden, Campbell)
Forwards: Sidebottom, Dangerfield, Chapman, Porplyzia, Zorko, Goodes, Murdoch (Franklin, Tomlinson)

He's leading the league, overall 2,000 more points than me.
Teams below me play chumps this week so likely to get the win plus percentage.

Ok then I'd go the final option blow all your trades.

Cheers for your thoughts, who do you think I should get in for Franklin if I go Broughton to Waters?

Spinking

Broughton to Waters, Franklin to Fyfe. If you need to win, then you've just got to do it I suppose...

+1, I'd definetely be pulling the trigger if I was in this situation. No point saving 2 trades when you're not even in the finals.

Cheers.
Fyfe is a bit of a gamble after one game but then so is Stevie.

Can you go Franklin to Beams and Broughton to Johnson or Waters?

That would be my options if they are possible.

If I go Franklin to Beams I can only move Broughton with $373,500 so options are M.Johnson, Hurn, Lake, Guerra.

I guess the options are is it better to have Waters and Fyfe/S.Johnson/Whitecross or Beams and M.Johnson (or similar).
