I think it depends on your work experience and the points you've claimed for it. Are you in an area of absolute skill shortage? If so, and you have 10 or 15 points for work experience, then I think you should go ahead. That's based on what I've read here: Expression of Interest fortnightly selection
The other thing to consider is your timeline. As you've read here in the forums, the EOI to Visa process seems to take about 12 months (give or take) for most people. The extra few months may or may not make a big difference to you.
Either way, good luck and keep us posted.
