The original and the best. Your #1 resource for daily AFL SuperCoach tips and analysis.
I’m against going early on trades with the likes of bruhn, dale, laird etc.. but Jones to McKenna is very appealing right now. Jones 5 points at half time before going off worries me and I do think McKenna might be the better pick, also taking some kick outs!
Saying that
TU – Jones to McKenna
TD – Hold for a week if Jones plays
Hold for a week regardless of whether Jones plays. You can use bench cover. His price won’t change this week so you have one more week to look at Mckenna.
Depends. If you have more then 3 trades you want to do best to do the obvious ones now
Steele > Callaghan
Liam Jones > Daicos
Not ideal trading out Steele, however I gain an extra cash cow in Callaghan. The midfield also looks the best place to go light at the moment with a few mid pricers/rookies doing the business!
Also dont like the rookie options down back apart from the options I am already fielding.
(Ginbey, Constable & McKenna)
This makes it hard to downgrade Jones.
TU or TD
I love it.
Think the ol’ mantra of “not trading premo’s”, doesn’t really apply anymore if you have good reason with 36 trades and 5 boosts.
Your cash-gen gets boosted, and you get more points on the field with this trade.
Got Cole?
What to do with fyfe??
TU – hold a week
TD – trade to JHF
I didn’t start with Callaghan, is he a must have? is it worth downgrading Hopper to Callaghan?
Had a great round, but other youngsters with talent in bad roles didn’t go as well.
He’s on my radar, but I’ll be waiting a week.
Have Marshall and Darcy. Have the coin to upgrade one to Gawn. Do it while Gawn’s affordable or give them a chance to show they can post consistent 100+s?
TU – Gawn in
TD – leave it
Darcy had a fair amount of the ruck-time. Believe it was 77% of the duties. He also got scored incredibly harsh in the first half, and then scaled down 13 points at HT to top it off. Huge second half to get a respectable score. He has North this weekend and I’m thinking of VC’ing him. I think he genuinely can finish R1 this year.
Marshall is the one I’m not too sold on. Was even considering flicking him before R1 with all the Campbell talk. But he had a really hard matchup against Freo, and still churned out a solid 80. Has English and then Draper the next two, so I’m expecting a strong bounce-back.
Grabbing Gawn is a completely luxury, so unless you have no other issues, and your structure is strong, I’d avoid doing it.
Cheers Abs. Great points!
Someone remind me on what Gawn will need to do to get Forward stays after round 6? Was he on target this week?
Didn’t consider him pre season due to Grundy and thought that he might become number 1 forward anyway. Thoughts?
Got the Stewart problem, thinking of trading him for Ridley or Daicos as they are similar in price
Tu Ridley
Td Daicos
Stewart to …………
TU Sicily (solid scorer and reliable)
TD Daicos (cheaper but tag target)
Will the $ help elsewhere FBS?
Sicily is going to benefit from how poor our team is this year. Lots of opportunity for the ball in his hands
Plays bruise free footy Sicily if someone actually sticks with him he will go 80-90 but the hawks are terrible and the plus 6 help tossing up between sic and Dawson
Thanks Abs, yeh money is always helpful in other areas especially since it’ll probably be a boost week next week to bring in all the cash cows before they go up. As a magpie fan I really want to pick Daicos but even this week against Port I reckon they might put someone on him. Whichever way I choose the other option will be the correct one!! Haha hope you have a good week pal.
I’ve seen a few say they believe Port put someone on him, but I personally don’t believe it. They let McKenna, and Rich run riot on Saturday, Hinkley’s response to “will you put work into Daicos” was also a media driven response from my interpretation.
Who knows though, not sure if either Drew or SPP could do much to negate Daicos. If I was you I’d save the 120k, and get your boy Whisper, sounds a better plan with a boost next weekend.
Best of luck either way FBS!
Got the Stewart x Jones problem:
TU: Daicos and McKenna in
TD: Wait a week on Jones if named
36 trades, 22 trading rounds. How do you use them?
I would expect to use 5 in the last 8 rounds (post byes) and 3* after round 2. So then you are at 28 for 13 rounds or 2 per round + 2 boosts.
Then you also have an additional 6 to budget for (4 x +1 for byes and 4* x +1 boosts, less two available per above), so for every boost/bye trade you have a week with 1 less trade. Where do you budget to find 6 extra trades?
Post round 1 – 1 (one side-ways correction)
Post round 3 – 2 (too early for cash generation)
Post round 4 – 2 (too early for cash generation)
Post round 12 – (only 2 teams on bye) – 1 (use 2 trades, not 3)
Then you use 3 x boost post rounds 5-10 depending on needs and save one boost for emergencies.
Question: If I were to do 2 correctional trades this week, where do I budget to lose that trade?
*assume use a boost for corrections
My abacus just broke.
My head hurts. I struggle to budget and forecast in my business and my personal lives, with all the pro help I have. The concept of SuperCoach trade budgets just broke my mind and sent me searching for a frothy:)
Hooly Doooly – I didn’t take the right maths at school to cope with this post !
If you have 3 x450k cash cows you can turn them into 2 premos and a rookie with a boost.
That saves you +1 trade on your upgrades
If you have a bunch of midpricers you can always upgrade early this week with a 1 up one down correction trade/upgrade.
Also just seen on SuperCoach app they have the injury signs next to Stewart/ Jones etc but why isn’t there one on Jelly? He was knocked out wasn’t he?
Strange, yeah he will be missing the game this weekend against the Eagles.
hey guys, which Combo to go for?
Josh Kelly- Callaghan
Liam Jones-N Daicos
Or
Josh Kelly-Cogs
Bruhn-JHF
Thanks
Stewart > N Daicos
Cunnington > W Setterfield
Jones > Ed Richards
TU – Yes
TD – Hold / No
Thinking very similar, except Hopper -> Callaghan. Have liked Richards all preseason
Already doing Jones > Mckenna
TU: Chesser to Pedlar
TD: No need
Thinking of going
Fyfe to Chandler
Jones to Daicos
T/U: Yay
T/D: Nay
Just be careful with Dees rookies….lots of established players on the sidelines, especially this week
Should I get rid of Jones after 5 points that he brought in and he’s not guaranteed to play
Thoughts on this trade SC Talk legends
Out: Stewart, Hopper & Ratugolea
In: Daicos, Gulden & Comben/Pedler
Yes, Rata may do more without Stewart missing a few weeks, however wasn’t overly exciting with Stewart gone most of the game. Xerri out – Comben hopefully plays more backup ruck/fwd with Goldy back plus ok cash gen.
Bottom line, the trade ends up with Daicos who should be top 6 DEF & Gulden, who has potential to be top 6-8 FWD (Plus DPP swing).
TU: Use that boost to potentially end up with two keepers & make points up after a disastrous last week.
TD: Trade Stewart only this week, reassess the other’s next week
Thinking big…
Stewart + Jones + Hopper
TO
Young/Ridley + Ed Richards + Callaghan.
TU or TD?
Too soon? Richards looking like continuing form from last year…
One trade for me trade Bruhn or Fyfe for T Green. T/U Bruhn. T/D. Fyfe
Torn about keeping Jones against a lacklustre saints, or flicking him for Mckenna
TU: Give Jones one more week if named
TD: Make the correction now
Dale > Daicos, Jones > McKenna, Flanders > JHF
TU: Yes
TD: Hold off
What to do with Flanders ?
TU: Trade
Or
TD: Hold
Failed rookie pick. Scoring went away with Touk’s return.
Correct to any rookie you think is better value
So torn….Fyfe to JHF looks so obvious, but text book SC play says wait a week.
T/u Do the trade
T/d Hold
I don’t have Fife but I have a feeling he is going to kick a bag this weekend against North after last weeks performance.
TU – Ziebell
T/D – JHF
Hey guys, managed a solid score for R1 but really not liking my selection of Luke Jackson in my $ide. Hate to blow a trade but feel I’d kick myself in the long run.
TU – Keep!
TD – Bring in JHF
Some talk of him playing more of a midfield role – similar to Blicavs at the Cats. Got a few CBAs in the second half last week even with Darcy rucking. Very talented below his knees as well as obviously in the air. I’d keep at this stage.
Lads,
Trade Flanders or not?
TU: Trade
TD: Hold
Who would you get?
Hello all,
Josh Kelly does he stay or go?
TU: Trade
TD: Hold
Doesn’t affect me but surely if you picked him and he’s only missing one week… you hold. Don’t want to be wasting trades on premiums this early do we? Also may give you a handy opportunity and advantage in using your bench options to loop the best score?
Concussion scares me, how can we be sure it’s a 1 week injury. Worried something could happen similar to English last year and also the prospect of leaving that much cash on the bench that early on
Adam Kingsley has revealed both Josh Kelly and Lachie Whitfield are both in the frame for Round 3 returns after showing good signs days after their head knocks, passing first stage of concussion protocols
Evening All,
Thinking due to increased trades this year, going really aggressive to start the season.
Trades this week are looking like:
J.Kelly -> Sicily
Hopper -> JHF
Flanders -> Sheezel
TU – DO IT
TD- HOLD
Could be worth holding off on Hopper to JHF and just reassess next week but I like the other two
Trade Dale for Daicos
TU: Yes
Or
TD: No
Definitely hold this week. Dale should go big against the Saints
Thoughts on Daniel Begala’s plan?
Jones – Ridley
Laird – Phillips
Fyfe – Coniglio
Two likely keepers for one very likely keeper.
If round two scores warrant, I could then go:
Wilmot/Chesser – McKenna
Sinn – Long
So, go aggressive early then hopefully sit for a bit.
Couple of unfilled leagues if anyone is interested code:889699 and 854310 cheers.
I’m in, Tomsbumpkins. Thanks.
Looking to bring in Sheezel. Who makes way.
TU: Bruhn (Can’t see him making as much cash as Sheezel)
TD: Ratugolea (Is also ruck cover at the moment through DPP)
Stewart replacement.
TU: Ridley
TD: Nick Daicos
Looking to bank the 100k difference
stewart out for
TU: sicily
TD: docherty
Is B. Cox a good pod and the real deal after good preseason and round 1
Tu- Yes
Td- Nope too inconsistent
DEF: Docherty, Dawson, Daicos, Jones, Ginbey, Constable (Wilmot, Cowan)
MID: Laird, Merrett, Bont, Green, Hopper, Callaghan, Ashcroft, Phillips (Baker, Chesser, A.Davey)
RUC: Darcy, Marshall (Madden)
FWD: Dunkley, Rozee, Taranto, Flanders, Sheezel, McLean (Phillipou, Greene)
$20,000 ITB
Feel like I only need to make the one move this week, that being Jones to Mckenna, would have done Flanders to JHF but don’t have the funds. Not to worried about Laird’s dud on the weekend, he’ll come good.
Any tips/feedback is much appreciated
Bruhn named on a wing, that’s where he got switched to last week once parfitt subbed in and scored rly badly.
TU: Is it time to go
TD: Still hold him
Already making 2 trades. Is it worth using a trade boost for the following;
Caminiti > Philipou
It will allow me to loophole at f6 through the ratugolea/madden DPP swing and give me extra cover as I currently have ratugolea at f6.
I also believe Caminiti will need to go by next week as there looks to be much better cash cows in the fwd line.
Tu; Do it
Td; Hold off
Trading out Tom Stewart not sure who comes in
Thumbs Up:Daicos
Thumbs Down;Sicily
Comment:Ridley
TU – Trade out Bruhn (thinking Sheezel)
TD – Or hold fire for 1 more week then re asses
If you don’t have Sheezel I think it’s worth it. Neither are keepers but I can see both making about the same amount of money. So for me that means take the cash now.
WHo to bring in?
T/U – Cogs
T/D – LDU
Do I go big early?
T/U
Jones > Ridley
Laird > Coniglio
Flanders > JHF
T/D
Just hold off and wait for next week
Trading jones for worpel
hopper for callaghan
fyfe for comben
to set up round 2 trades if laird doesnt perform
flanders to pedlar/zieball
laird to cogs
chessar to daicos
T/U Yes
T/D Hold Hopper
Doubt Comben will go as well with Goldy back. Maybe just Jones to Worpel/Cal. Loop Fyfe if you can.
Out –
Hopper, Flanders, Bruhn
In –
Sheezel, Gulden, Stocker
T/U or T/D?
Feedback much appreciated
Just Bruhn to Sheezel I’d suggest. Hold Hopper and Flanders for now
Think I’d trade Flanders before Bruhn. Bruhn was going ok until Parfitt came on for Stewart and pushed him out to a wing.
Thinking of doing Jelly (jelly out to concussion) to McKenna Via DPP to bank me 400K reason being I went very mid price madness and if I do this trade I will be able to fix any problems next week on midpricers with ease, especially with the 36 trades (use to 30)
Midpricers I went for
Max Holmes (cats fan) Fyfe, McInerney & Draper
What are the odds Laird and Fyfe go large this week?
I don’t own either however the SC Gods have a way to make coaches regret their knee jerk decisions.
Fyfe is playing full forward vs north. If you have the ability to loop his score then you should do it
Hi everyone – already have Docherty and Daicos so now looking at best STEWART replacement?
T/U Sicily – safer /smarter move after just 2 round
T/D Ridley/Ryan/Young/Cox + extra cash – risky after just 1 round and Freo scores inflated
Also
T/U Sicily
T/D Dawson
Ben Cunnington >Tom Green?
TU: Trade Away
TD: Keep Cunnington
TU Trade out Bruhn and Hopper to Daicos and Phillipou
TD Wait a week
T/U Ryan – huge first round score and should see a nice price rise after 3
T/D Ridley – better in the long run (don’t get sucked in by a 170!!)
If you went early on one – who?
TU – Mackenzie
TD – Callaghan
Like most, few question marks over a few players; Jones, Bruhn, Flanders, Hopper.
Can’t make 4 changes next week if in a worse case scenario so Jones to McKenna is the only trade me this week. Leaves me with 150k. If Bruhn, Jones and Flanders fail my pass mark then I’ll be aggressive and boost those 3 out.
Ones to watch; JHF, Ziebell, Chandler (if scoring and looks to hold a spot) and Will Phillips if he isn’t the sub. Thought he played well when coming on.
thinking below:
Stewart > 500k defender
H. Clark > mckenna
Fyfe > gulden
Allows me to wait another week on hopper, and potentially get in JHF/Mackenzie after R2.
TU: Yes
TD: No
B smith > the likes of Warner, LDU or Cogs
TU: Yes make the trade
Or
TD: Hold
Don’t know what to do as it could cost me a loss in my leagues head to head. Have bench cover O.Baker
TU: Keep & suck up a possible loss
TD: Trade to Coniglio
Assuming you talking about Kelly? Probably just hold if you have other issues. No other issues, then feel free to trade to Cogs imo.
Sorry talking about Kelly
Boost time
Out
Jelly
LJones
Neale
In
Coniglio
Daicos
Gulden
Tu/Td???
I think just typing that here is enough to show me how crazy that is.
Otherwise I do:
T/u
Out – Jelly and Jones
In – Ziebel and Daicos
T/d
Out – Jones
In – Mckenna
Boost next week if required.
Just conscious of Jelly being slow to get back to full form after the concussion.
Definately hold Neale
I think I’m doing the same with JKelly due to being out and may be slow getting back to it
Are we all riding off Nat Fyfe , something is telling me he is was a undisputed champion of a generation and that you should never write off a player of his ilk ( fortitude has been mentioned and this guy has it in spades ) i will certainly give him another week just in case he’s leg has not fallen off.
Forward role sucks in a team that is terrible going forward. Possibly hold because with all the talk about him in the media, he could see some midfield minutes and up that scoring. but its really risky if he doesn’t score well again. especially against North, could see him become really cheap. It’s pretty team dependent.
TU : B.Cox
Or
TD: D.Rioli
Or McGrath
Is it worth keeping Jones 1 more week to then be able to get bowes In depending on how he goes
TU: Yes
TD: No trade to McKenna and forget
Out: Stewart Jones Day
In: Daicos Young Cole
TU for do it TD for dont
Could someone help me?
How do you logout from the Supercoach App then log back in?
From the app, you hit the more ‘three lines’ thing down the bottom right, then hit your user symbol up the top left. This should give you the options for your profile, your account and the ability to log out
Thanks. Got it.
Hopper…
T/U – hold
T/D – JHF
SC occupying so much of my real estate right now hah
This is my current, no changes of yet from last week. Unsure on what (if any moves) are necessary before the start of round 2
DEF: Docherty, Sicily, Jones, McKenna, Ginbey, Constable (Wilmot, Cowan)
MID: Laird, Neale, Bont, Green, Hopper, Callaghan, Ashcroft, McKenzie (Davey, Baker, Chesser)
RUCK: Darcy, Marshall (Madden)
FWD: Dunkley, Rozee, Taranto, Gulden, Flanders, Sheezel (Greene, Caminti)
Any thoughts greatly appreciated
How much $$$ do you have.
Real solid side.
Jones + Flanders probably your biggest issues. Think you just wait.
Maybe Flanders > Philapou just to free up some cash for potential moves next week
That’s what I was thinking, just hold and gather another week of data
Backline premiums are currently Stewart, Docherty and Ridley. Daicos very tempting but not sure if that’s the way to go as I already have Ridley.
Do I straight swap Stewart to Dawson (Can’t go Sicily in 1 trade) or go Stewart to Daicos and bank 108k to potentially get Jones to Worpel which means I don’t have to field Constable at M8?
TU: Stewart > Dawson
TD: Stewart > Daicos + 108k ITB
Kane chandler a must have ?
Laird Bruhn -> Daicos Cogs
Looking to fill up a league – 825945
I already have McKenna. Now that Jones has been named: –
TU: keep him
TD: trade to Cole
TU: Keep Jones and turn into Bowes next week
TD: Trade Jones to McKenna
League starting round 3 available code:211269,all welcome,cheers.
In.
Cheers Grant.
TU: McKenna
Or
TD: T Cole
