Which trades to make?

Hi Guys, this is my side for the weekend.

I have $47,300 left in the bank, and my concern players are Zac Smith, Karnezis and Mitchell. Here are my thoughts:
This week, Karnezis to Dwyer, and Smith to a premo - I can afford anyone under Maric. McEvoy was my preferred.
Next week, go Mitchell out, Dwyer into midfield, Tom Lee into forwards.

So, 3 trades and I should be sorted.

The slightly riskier option, which I'm stupidly tempted to do:
This round: Karn to Dwyer, Smith to Leuey
Next Round: Mitchell to Lee.
Bank cash (~$320k)
The risk is whether Leuey holds up. It could be a stroke of genius or it could mean a 4th trade to correct the Berger, which would be Berger to a keeper.

With extra trades I'm tempted to take the punt on Berger this week...

Thoughts?

Could go Smith--Berger and Karnezie-- Monfries , for a cash grab

Monfries seems like another risky option to me... costs me 25k overall to trade to that (Smith 370, Berger 300, Karn 260, Monfries 355) I'm not sure I'm willing to take the punt that Monfries will maintain a 100+ avg...

Yeah he probably is a risk mate, but by his own addmission, he said he was feeling stagnated at the Bombers, so at a new club, who knows

I like McEvoy and Dwyer.

Another suggestion is Bailey? I know - but he isn't much worse off than Leue is he? His price is doe to rise today.

I feel like McEvoy and Dwyer is probably the safer route, as McEvoy would be a keeper. Leuey and Monfries is high risk/high reward sort of situation. I'm going for league and with 30 trades seems like an ok risk to take...
