Stats increase and decrease question.

Question about adding MA, ST, AG or AV to a player.

The rule is +2 max, and injuries can allow something to go down to minimum of 1. So can someone give us the correct answers for the two scenarios below, even if highly unlikely.

QUESTION 1: So lets say I have a player that gets MA+1, MA+1 and Block, as his first 3 skill rolls. Then the player receives a MA-1, MA-1, for injuries. His next skill roll is 10, so another MA+1, AV+1 or Skill, can the player get the the MA+1 or does he have to take a skill due to him already having a MA+2 over his career?

QUESTION 2: Same scenario different stat. So lets say I have a player with 2 AG, that gets AG+1, AG+1 and Block, as his first 3 skill rolls. Then that player receives a string of bad injuries AG-1, AG-1, AG-1, AG-1 and AG-1 for injuries. Now his AG is 1 because that the minimum it can go. His next skill roll is 11, so another AG+1, can the player get the the AG+1 or does he have to take a skill due to him already having a AG+2 over his career or is his AG now a 2 due to the order of the injuries and skills?

Thanks!

You can take the +MA, however you will now be paying 90k on the player cost for only one stat increase :)

As per the Casualty Table:
-1 MA, ST, AG, and AV: Miss next game as above. In addition, record
the characteristic change on the team roster. However, no
characteristic may be reduced by more than 2 points or below a
value of 1. Any injuries that could reduce it further are ignored.

So the 5th -AG is ignored (though he would still miss a game) and can can take an AG+ again.
Though, again, why would you :)

No reason to take any of them, I agree. But this was brought up at league night and we all had different ideas as to what happens in those unlikely scenarios.

Thanks for the answer.
