Staker to Rioli this week or hold?

[ben_020285]

Here's the team:

DEF: Goddard, Thompson, Heppell, Hartlett, Hanley, Gibbs (Ibbotson, Wilson)
MID: Ablett, Pendlebury, J Selwood, JPK, Griffen, Cotchin, Fyfe, T Mitchell (Saunders, K Martin)
RUC: Goldstein, Minson (Nicholls, Currie)
FWD: Walker, Martin, Cox, Rockliff, JJK, Stevie J (Staker, B Kennedy)

I have 5 trades left and $77,900 in the bank.

I am just going for league wins now as I am too far back from the leader (500 points)

Staker is actually more expensive than Rioli at the moment but that will most likely change as of next week.

I will definitely be trading Nicholls to McBean this week and next week I will be trading K Martin for Dangerfield. Unfortunately I can't afford the K Martin to Dangerfield trade this week.

Should I trade Staker to Rioli this week which would mean that I would have 2 trades left for the last 3 weeks of SC finals or should I hold Staker and leave myself with 3 trades for the last 3 weeks of SC finals?

All advice appreciated and cheered.

If you trade Staker to Rioli, which fwd will you bench?

What about trading Ibbotson. Put Staker Back and then get Rioli in the forward line.

I don't think you gain a lot. I would hold and sort you midfield first.

Good suggestion. I'd do Nicholls to McBean to free cash (plus give you DPP with Cox in case you need it later). Then look at upgrading Kmart to a premo mid, maybe Beams if you can afford.

wouldn't give up on overall just yet with 5 weeks to go 500 points is possible! couple of big weeks and your back in it!!!!
