So basically I've got a few tough decisions to make in regards to rookies this week. I've got $341,500 sitting in the bank and I'm unsure of which trades to do with my rookies.

The following are the possible rookies that may be downgraded/upgraded this week for my team:
Tom Clurey ($123,900, 31.00, N/A)
Luke Dunstan ($320,200, 82.80, 87)
Xavier Ellis ($278,100, 65.00, 101)
Jay Kennedy-Harris ($142,100, 34.00, -22)
Patrick Ambrose ($102,400, 63.00, -64)
Jarman Impey ($177,000, 47.00, 16)
Lewis Taylor ($194,900, 44.20, 12)

My FWD is looking pretty weak, so I do wish to improve that.

My initial trade thoughts and considerations for this week were:
Xavier Ellis > Sam Lloyd (via Lewis Taylor)
Jarman Impey/Jay Kennedy-Harris/Patrick Ambrose > Nick Riewoldt
Tom Clurey > Tom Cutler

What are your thoughts?

Ellis-->Lloyd sounds good
Impey and JKH still have cash to make
Either Clurey to Cutler or Dunstan to Robertson would be good for your 2nd trade. Or Clurey to Robertson if you have the DPP

Cutler wont go up much the first price rise so if you need to get him next week and Robbo this week

Chonks

So you're both suggesting no upgrades for this week then?

Correct. I'm getting both Robbo and Lloyd this week as well

Ewoks

take the cash and stockpile for next week  ;) both the suggested rookies should make a fair bit and they wont come along all that often

Mate I've done the exact same trades. Leaves me $440k for upgrades next week.

Mind you it is only Tuesday, things will possibly change by this weekend!
