Baxters has been great with some good advice for me, but in my first year Im still trying to fine tune the trading strategies, so am after a discussion on this topic... are trades the be all and end all... if you can get a decent team on the park, but dont have one of the sure thing cows on offer, do you let him go or get in on the action?
If you have a few good rookie cows already, do you simply HAVE TO get on another sure thing? Or are trades more important?
For example... If you have used zero trades to date and had a midfield of 7 good performers including Robinson and Beams... but dont have Rich... do you trade Anthony to Rich just to get in on the cash... or is the trade saved more important than the missed cash? Id love to see Rich come in, but the appeal of having 20 trades still and a good team on the park is also appealing...
Im just not experienced enough to see how it plays out in another 10 weeks for instance. When you want to 'finalise' your midfield to premiums... is having Beams and Robinson and Anthony going to stagger my likely timeframes for upgrading to premiums enough anyways if I do Beam and Robinson first? Am i going to see the timeframe for upgrading stretch into when Anthony will be coming online anyway if I just keep him and forgo Rich?
Cheers
