      1. I disagree. This is the week to get rid of him. I was keeping him as M9/F7 but he’s unreliable sitting forward

      2. If you can trade him up to a fallen premo (ie Mills) you’ d be crazy not to!

        Or you can even make abit of profit and trade him “down” to Hawkins. With a string of games coming up at GMHBA on the run home it’s one move that I am strongly considering.

  1. Last upgrade to finish team

    Tu; Oliver if back (requires 2 trades)
    Td; Libba (requires 1 trade) awesome run home

    1. Definitely TD Libba.

      Indeterminacy of Satan’s injury is problematic and the Dogs’ run is better than Melbourne’s. One less trade as well.

    1. Held Briggs through the byes with intentions of keeping him at R2 for the remainder of the season.
      Also cashing in Marshall gets me more value and allows me to grab a 600k + premo!

        1. Doesn’t matter just for one week mate, Briggs will make up the points in the long term if not this week..

      1. Scratch all that. Hump’s dog day cost me those options.
        TU: Macrae and Mills
        TD: Libba and Mills.

  2. Cant decide between Butters to complete the FWD or move Keays into FWD and get Libba. What do you all think?

    TU: Libba
    TD: Butters

  3. Current team

    Def: Stewart, Daicos, Dawson, Sinclair, Ryan, Lloyd (S Mitchell, Arnold)

    Mid: Bont, Laird, Taranto, Brayshaw, Neale, Green, Cogs, Humphrey (Fyfe, Sharp, Rowston)

    Ruc: English, Gawn (Madden)

    Fwd: Dunkley, Gulden, Rozee, Sheezel, D Cam, Keays (Roberts, Drury)

    $46.7k in bank but only two trades left.

    Humphrey will need to go, but that leaves me only $441k so:

    Tu: Mills
    Td: Himmelberg

    Comment anyone else (Saad and move dawson to mid)

    1. Saad over Mills (injury profile, subbed & rubbed) and HBerg (in a support not spare defensive role) easily.

  5. 1 more premo to upgrade tossing up between Libba, Oliver and butters.
    I am leaning towards Libba but not having Oliver could be costly
    Going Libba or butters would leave me with 100k with 3 trades left with no upgrades needed

  6. So, I have Rowan Marshall, Jarrod Witts and Kieren Briggs on my ruck line. Like many around these parts, I only need to keep two of the three and intend cashing one in for my final FWD upgrade. I think I’ll hold on to Briggs and get rid of one of the other two.
    So who should I get rid of?
    TU Marshall
    TD Witts

    1. I’m in the exact same boat and am having a tough time deciding which of Witts and RoMo to drop, especially because I started with both of them. However, the chance to save a trade and finish upgrading with the cash is too tempting.

      Statistically, RoMo’s average is usually higher post-byes than pre-byes (for 2019, 2021, and 2022). For Witts, he had a higher 2nd half average in 2019 but not last year, though that is likely due to him coming off an injury year in 2021 and not having the same level of conditioning.

      The only other consideration is the ruck outlook at each club and another post was talking about RoMo potentially leaking points due to not taking ruck duties in forward 50.

      I’m leaning towards trading RoMo but I’m not 100% sold at this point.

      1

    2. I’m only playing for leagues so my decision may differ from others, English is a lock R1 in my side, but giving it a few more weeks before I decide between RoMo and Briggs.

      As said in previous comment RoMo may go large against WC and shouldn’t lose cash, and it gives me a larger sample size on Briggs.

  7. B. Humphrey + M. Johnson > S. Walsh + O. Mullin
    Leaves me with $135,400 to luxury upgrade W. Day to J. Sicily when he’s back and 6 trades left.

    TU: Good Trades
    TD: Rethink

    These trades would leave my team as:
    DEF
    N. Daicos, T. Stewart, J. Dawson, J. Sinclair, L. Ryan, W. Day (J. Fahey, O. Mullin)

    MID
    M. Bontempelli, C. Oliver, R. Laird, Z. Merrett, L. Neale, A. Brayshaw, T. Green, S. Walsh (M. Windhager, H. Sharp, C. Constable)

      1. If English or Briggs goes down, he’d have the cash to do a straight swap to just about anyone with one of his remaining 6 trades.

        1

      2. Darcy Cameron could be an option instead of Walsh to address that concern but I’m hoping 6 trades is plenty for injuries cause I have less

  8. Sitting alright with trades (11) and nearly full premo, am I silly to consider sideways trading RoMo to Briggs to give me some cash?

    TU: Sure

    1. How the hell can you be almost full premo with 11 trades left? That’s a huge result.

    1. Final upgrades (22 premiums with fyfe and sheldrick as cover).

      TU: Walsh and Himmelberg

      TD: Ryan/Ridley (this week) and Mills (next week)

      Both options leave me with 5 trades.

      Playing for leagues btw.

  9. Steele looks to be struggling, low TOG. Almost managed 100 last round to stop the cash bleeding

    Saints play West Cost this week, Steele could go huge.

    TU: Keep Steele
    TD: Or trade him to Laird, Will need 2 trades (7 left)

  10. 1 more trade to full premo and unsure which road to take. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Haven’t seen much of Lachie Ash from Giants this season… is he worth a look as M8/D6 cover (as has DPP flexibility) or consider a more proven, pure M8 eg. Sam Walsh (or similar priced Mid)?

    TU – Ash is a good player, will serve you well for the remainder of the season – $50K ITB after trade.
    TD – Don’t muck around, just get in Sam Walsh (or Mark Blicavs, or Ollie Wines… comments please?) – Approx. $15K ITB after trade.

    Thanks SuperCoaches!

  11. TU: Oliver

    Seems crazy not go to Oliver, but the extra cash from Libba could help with any injury trades down the line.

  12. The trade/s that takes me full premo

    TU- Weddle > Mills (via DPP, Dawson goes to DEF)
    TD- Briggs/Marshall > rookie
    Weddle > best player available in MID or DEF

  13. TU- Weddle to Houston (pushes yeo to D7) or mid 592k or under

  16. Hey all, thoughts on this?

    OUT: S Mitchell, Cincotta & RoMo
    IN: N Daicos, Keays & Mullin (purely for the extra cash),

    This will leave me with 3 trades for the rest of the year, but I’ll have a full premo side (I’ll have Fyfe as bench cover, Briggs as 2nd ruck & $38k ITB)!

  17. Hi all, need some help.

    Finishing off my team and need my last forward spot. Wanted Butters but was 1.1k short thanks to Humphrey’s poor score and price decrease.
    A few options and if I could get a few opinions that’ll be great.

    TU: Humphrey + Johnson to Macrae + Maric bank 19,3k
    Or
    TD: Humphrey + Cincotta to Keays + Mullin bank 99k

    I know Maric and Mullin aren’t that great but for bench fillers and maximum cash input onto field I think they are alright.
    I like Keays and the Adelaide fixtures, he’s also that pod in ownership and leaves me cash to potentially up Steele or Sheezel.
    Macrae is a great player, obviously doesn’t play that pig role anymore but he’s probably safer option but paying up for that with nothing left in the bank.
    Just to note: I’ve got Wardlaw and Johnson on the mid bench. Currently with 6 trades left with 1 boost. If I went Keays, I could boost Steele up to Wines or Sheezel up to Houston to give some pod options into the run home. Will post team in reply comment.

  19. Through some miracle I can complete my side this week with two trades in hand if I bring in DCam + Ziebell for Gawn + Humphrey with $0 remaining (it’s a sign!). I still have funds on the bench so will use that + last two trades for strictly injury, break-in-case-of- emergency options.

    I’d like to know whether folks think Ziebell is the best option at the price point or do I go slightly cheaper with Saad.

    Tu: Ziebell

  22. Who scores more for the rest of the season:

    TU – Parish
    TD – Serong

    Leaning towards Parish to have a big finish in a contract year, I can see Serong getting a bit worn out given the load he’s been carrying. Can’t go wrong with either one but just keen for thoughts.

  23. I have Briggs at R3, and Grundy at R2. For cash gen to complete full premo, I’m thinking of keeping Briggs as R2, and trading Grundy to lowest price rookie. Footy wire have Grundy only 40 odd % to make BE this week.
    TU or TD?

  24. Atkins, Humphrey and Briggs out
    Oliver, Trac and any playing/non-playing DEF rookie in (prob Constable on the hope he gets back into the team…otherwise is perma loop)

    Leaves 6 trades with just Yeo and S Mitchell on field to be upgraded whenever suits

    TU- good trades
    TD- bad trades

    1. Obviously 2 premos in is great but I’d be wary of Satan. Everyone’s super gung ho on him but a supposedly minor hamstring injury balloned into a month, then there was the hospital/infection issue. Then they said he was back but he wasn’t. The indeterminacy concerns me.

      I’d give Libba a look.

      As for a DEF downgrade, double check first whether you can DPP anyone else as Fletcher (BRIS, MID) looks solid on the bubble.

      If not, don’t go Constable if you’re hoping your DEF downgrade plays. He won’t play again.

      I’d go Mullin (GEEL) or Montgomerie (ESS). Both are an injury away from playing.

      1. amazing thx – cant DPP, has to be DEF in (or I instead trade out Johnston or Fyfe from MIDs for Fletcher…which could be the play).

        I do love Libba, it is under active consideration!

  25. Interesting time of year…final upgrades. Do I prioritise bench cover or on points scoring.

    Both trades will see Weddle, Fyfe, Ashcroft out.

    TU: Libba, Cameron, Mullin (160k in bank)
    Can turn Johnson into Mills next week.

    Or

    TD: Libba, Cameron, Sheldrick (11k in bank)
    Stronger cash gen to try and upgrade Steele to Oliver or Sicily in 2/3 weeks.

    5 trades left after these trades.

    1. Should have specified in Option 1 Mills would be M9 for looping with Steele

      Rest of my bench cover would be cactus

      Def: Chesser, Mullin

      Ru: Madden (have Cameron to swing)

  26. Mid price Mid madness.
    Who do you think is the better pick out of these two cheapies?

    TU – Ben Keays $462,700 (5 games at AO.)

    TD – Sam Walsh $514.400 (Tougher draw! Proven elite)

  27. Ok… 3 trades left and a full team, but that is including Yeo who is a bit of a risky prospect. Also have two dpp’s in my mids so keen to potentially get a Walsh or Mills to wrap it up.

    Humphry also my 23rd but dropping cash fast.

    TU > 2 trades this week to get Walsh and a rookie from Humph and M Johnson, moving Yeo to 23rd player. 1 trade left.

    TD > Hold tight and make no trades. Hope that Humphry spikes a score and Mills get subbed again so I can maybe do a single trade swap (or just hold the trades)

    Harrison at F6 & Maric/Buller

    Need 1 Mid premium

    Really stuffed, don’t know what to do

    Comment keep trades for injuries/suspensions

    1. Wardlaw/Sheldrick better onfield scorers than Harrison/Maric so I’d be inclined to upgrade the forward line before the mids.

  29. Oliver confirmed out has thrown my trades a bit. For those of us still with him, do we continue to hold him or just rage trade him…

    If I were to trade, I’m probably doing Oliver, Humphrey and Johnson to Libba, Butters and Maric. Finishes my team.

    What do we all think?
    TU: Hold

  32. Last upgrade (in MID):

    TU: Butters

    TD: Libba

    If I go butters it allows me to use Robertson or johnson to cover any line using dpp if I go libba I will have to use maric or angwin (or mullin if he plays) to cover FWD and DEF using dpp. But I do have 5 trades left for injuries. Not sure which option is best.

  33. To all the AFL Club Coachs out there, Im offering my Oracle services for the balance of the year as I have an undeniable gift. For $200k per interaction I will bring in one of your opponent players into my Supercoach side for which they are guaranteed to be doomed straight away for a 3 round slump, concussion miss or rough tackle holiday and corresponding negative score. For $500k per transaction I will bring into my side one of your own players, making several trades to do so, initially they will face their lowest score but for which I will trade them out the following week, thereby magically transforming them to absolute gold scoring machine ripping clearances, tackles, contested posessions for the balance of the season. System is guaranteed, 20 trades made so far this year as proof.

    1. As long as you aren’t playing him on field and have other bench cover he offers maximum trade cash. Go for it I reckon.

  37. Help please?

    1 more premo needed, but cash/trades a little low.
    Was considering Steele given his bargain basement price, but obviously that is a reflection of his current scoring.
    Read the game chat and all info in this thread and not sure what the prob is….is he injured or just out of form?

    1. Sorry – forget above, just found Chaos Theory’ update in the coaches box…enough said

  39. I was not trading this week as my team is full “premo” if you count Angus Brayshaw at D6 and Tom Hawkins at F6 as premiums.

    I have decent bench cover but I was planning on using Bailey Humphrey as my mid/forward cover. His recent role change has got me very concerned.

    I can straight swap him to Harry Himmelberg which would give me the following bench cover:

    D: Mitchell Constable
    M: Sheldrick, Wilmot, Sharp
    R: Madden (Cameron in Fwds as cover)
    F: Himmelberg Maric

    The issue is that I have only got 3 trades left and this would leave me with 2 trades to navigate the final 9 rounds.

    T/U Do it, Himmelberg is better cover

    T/D Keep Humphrey and save the trade

    6

    6
    1. How much cash you have?

      Humphrey’s be is 120 so you could wait a week and see if he gets back to his mid fwd role or see the role himmelberg or Mills plays. Then sideways to one of them. Mills will prob be $400k next week.

      0

      0
      1. I only have 6k ITB.

        If Humphrey loses any more cash or Himmelberg goes up in value – both highly likely to happen, the opportunity is gone.

        At the moment it is basically a straight swap.

        Even if Mills drops to 400k next week, unless Humphrey hits his BE, I won’t be able to do that move with one trade.

        2

        0
        1. Then imo go for the trade if you see the teams and Humphrey is in the forward pocket and Fiorini and Flanders in the middle.

          Using a trade isnt ideal but you have good bench cover and lots of people are low on trade (sure some have none too). You have good bench cover so save those trades to cover any season ending injuries.

          1. Hi AJ,

            Thanks for the responses and your thoughts mirror mine.

            I will wait for teams to drop and if it looks like Humphrey is going to be stuck in a forward pocket again, I think I will trade in Himmelberg.

            I can then keep the last 2 trades for long term injuries.

  41. My plan was to trade Humphrey this week and after last week I have no hesitation..

    8 Trades/$234k in the bank

    Question; do I use all my $ and upgrade to a premo upto $620k like Libba or Butters.

    Or do I go the dicount option Mills and still be left with $200k in the bank.

  42. Was initially planning on keeping Sicily, but now that Oliver is also out for another week (or more?) and I need the league wins, I’m trading both, I can’t afford having both premos out if I want the wins.

    Out: Oliver, Sicily, Van Rooyen

    In: Petracca, Libba, Ryan

    Leaves me with 7 trades and 37k itb, 1 upgrade left, easy route to down/up Wilmot and Mitchell next week into a premo.

    1. Don’t how sold you are on Cogs. You could have Wines, T Kelly at very similar money. Or S walsh is 10k up the road. FWIW I like Wines of the four of them..

  48. Backline: Dawson, Daicos, Stewart, Sinclair, Lloyd and Ryan.

    Midfield: Bont, Clarry, Laird, Anderson, Walsh, Green, Neale, Chesser

    Ruck: English, Marshall

    Forward: Tarranto, Gulden, Rozee, Sheezel, Darcy Cameron and Dunkley

    This weeks trades: Fyfe + Humphrey > Madden + (premium – any position but ruck?? Via dpp)

    What premium should I get to finish my team (can be any price/position apart from ruck)

    1. Brayshaw for me in guts

      If you want a cheaper option so you can upgrade Sheezel, look at Doch in defence and swing Dawson to midfield

  49. Hi y’all
    Decided to get rid of Oliver – too much uncertainty and it’s costing me.

    TU: Butters
    TD: Jelly

    Thinking I could use the cash from savings for future, or I should I go Laird instead?

  50. Over Oliver now, who to bring in I like Butters could be Brownlow winner this year also like Libba. Both roughly same price dogs slightly easier draw. TU Butters. TD. Libba

    TU- Get him
    TD- Look elsewhere

    1. I am looking at Harry Himmelberg as my 23rd “premo”, he will be my main bench cover for injuries and suspensions.

  55. This yeo news is absolutely devastating, as I brought him in last week, but probably should have seen it coming. Listed as 3-4 weeks, I currently have 4 trades left.

    TU: Trade

  57. Need an opinion on whether 2 trades is enough to cover the remaining games after next week given i will have sheezel at D7, Mills at M9, Fyfe F7, and had Dcam at F6 who i can swing into the ruck (and then swing sheezel fwd) if things get messy.

    TU: should be good
    TD: hold trades (would mean not getting Mills next week and keeping johnson)

  58. Was hoping to turn Yeo into Sicily in 2 weeks time but that is now not on the cards (was always the risk). Who should my final upgrade be for D6?

    Finishes my team with $50K ITB, 5 trades left and Fyfe, Johnson, Cincotta as cover

    TU: Go for It

    TD: There’s better value/Keep Marshall

  61. Have a current predicament and would love some assistance. Have 156k ITB and 7 trades. . I am thinking of going Humphrey to Walsh which leaves 36k but need to generate some more cash to then go Fyfe to Mills. Sharp to Fletcher? Leaves me with 5 trades. Love some thoughts.

    B: Stewart, Dawson, Sinclair, Ryan, Lloyd, Redman (Constable, Gilbee)
    M: Bont, Laird, Merrett, Neale, Brayshaw, Gulden, Green, Humphrey (Sharp, Chesser, Wagner)

  64. Hi all,

    Is Marshall to Briggs Ok if the cash enables me to
    swap Wardlaw to Mills ???
    TU or TD Thanks Guys

  65. What to do with Yeo?

    I have only 4 trades, no cash so trading him only gives me $445k

    TU: Hold and use Melican to cover him
    TD: Trade him to who? Or Use 2 trades to get someone worth it leaving me with 2 trades

    1. Are there any single or multi DPPs you can use to activate a MID spot? Or looking at just a straight DEF spot?

  66. So the Yeo experiment went as expected.
    Who’s the best DEF to bring in under $483K?
    Will be D6/D7 with Day

    TU: Ziebell/Sheezal (I don’t have a FWD/DEF player to swing them FWD)
    TD: Wanganeen (Can be used as MID cover)

    1. Not long term I think. This week he should be ok again (in the guts) even with Hopper back because Prestia is out. However when everyone is available he probably gets pushed out of the primary on ball 4 of Taranto, Prestia, Hopper and Bolton.

  71. Trading out Yeo and Weddle:

    TU: Ryan (cheap M8 later (Mills, Cripps, Walsh, Touk))
    TD: Libba (cheap D6 later (Himmelberg, Nas, Day))

    9

    2
  72. TU Himmelberg at F6, Hewett at M9 and Melican at D7/8
    TD Keays at F6, Angwin at M9 and O’Donnell at D7/8

    DPP should cover midfield bench.

    4

    2
  73. Will have four trades left and one off full premo at the end of this. Solid bench cover on each line though. Weddle and Humphrey are going, either way. I have Fyfe and Thomas who will become a proper premo, injuries and cash permitting

    TU: W, H and Oliver for D. Cameron, Rozee and Ryan
    TD: W, H and Van Rooyen for D. Cameron, Dawson and a $102k m/f (and $100k ITB)

  75. Currently at “full premo” with Blakey at D6, Steele at M8 and Sheezel at F6. Also have Fyfe as a floating F7/M9. With 4 trades left I’m thinking of doing Johnson to Himmelberg as a D7 so I can have a non rookie covering every line with D Cam in my forwards already.

    TU: good trade for cover
    TD: hold the trade for injuries

  76. Not sure I am as keen on others to bring in Jaspa given his shaky JS. Who to trade in;

  77. T/U – Trade Oliver to Dawson (somewhat full premo w/ Day, Sheezel and Himmelberg + 2 trades

    T/D – Hold Oliver and have to field Fletcher until Return but have 3 trades left

    11
  78. Keeping Briggs, who to trade out of gawn and witts? It will be funding libba and Jackson in a three way trade
    T/U – gawn

  79. Brought in Yeo last week
    Current team below before trades. 11 Trades left (Three boosts), $62.2k ITB
    Def: Daicos, Stewart, Ridley, Lloyd, Yeo, Weddle (S.Mitchell, Constable)

    Mid: Bont, Oliver, Laird, ZMerrett, Macrae, Dawson, Green, Steele,(Wardlaw, Davey, McLean)

    Rucks: Marshall, Gawn (Madden)
    Fwd: Dunkley, Taranto, Rozee*, Cogs, D.Cameron, JVR (Maric, Harrison )

    Think of going Yeo, Weddle and Humphry to Sinclair, Serong and Mullin

    TU – Yes
    TD – Look at other options (leave suggestions in the comments)

  80. Which option to trade in to be full premo (Sheezel is a “premo” in my team)?

    TU : L Ryan (to join Stewart, Daicos, Sinclair, Ridley & Lloyd) and leave Dawson as a MID.
    TD: Merrett/Libba (to join Laird, Bont, Neale, Brayshaw, Titch, Green, Taranto) and move Dawson to DEF
    Or vote below for Petracca (but this only leaves me $600 in the bank which worries me)

    1

    7
    1. TU : Petracca over all of the above, and if full premo with bench cover, $600 ITB is fine
      TD : Better with one of the above and have some cash left for emergency trades

  82. So I got Yeo in last week.. As the saying goes.. You play with matches and you’ll get burned!

    1. You wanna trade out Yeo after getting him last week? He scored 93 and had 10 tackles for a team who lost by 170 pts. Are you all there bro?

  83. I can’t decide who to trade in for Yeo who I just got last week!!

  84. Who in the eyes of our many contributors would be considered the numero uno of midfielder.Personally I have always thought Clarrie but has Bontempelli taken over the mantle?Also is there another round of new dpp soon?

    1. Hi Dragoons
      I still rate Oliver the best. Supercoach-wise, he is in a difficult position with his ongoing injury concerns and doubt about his return date? Bont is ever consistant. Dont forget Dunkley.
      Might make an interesting poll at seasons end.

      Next DPP players due at completion of round 17.

      Latest info but we know how quickly things can change.

      Max Gawn (Melbourne)
      65.5% Ruck – 34.5% Fwd

      Sam Walsh (Carlton)
      62.5% Mid – 36.8% Fwd

      Jayden Short (Richmond)
      50% Def – 36% Mid – 14% Fwd

  88. Thumbs up Ashcroft and Weddle for Libba and Fletcher

    Thumbs down Ashcroft and Weddle for Walsh and Fletcher

    Extra 100k in the bank for next trades. 154k left with Libba in instead of Walsh.

    Going for league and opponent this week who is just behind me has Neale. So maybe Neale instead?

    Thanks for any thoughts ?

  91. Wilmot’s great score on my bench has made me change my mind on trading Sicily, also keeping in mind Brisbane play West Coast at the Gabba next week and backing Wilmot to score decently again to cover Sicily.

    So latest trade idea:

    Out – Oliver, Van Rooyen, Hayden Young

    In – Libba, Luke Ryan, LDU

    Allows me to keep Sicily (stacked backline once he’s back) and get rid of Young who wasn’t in my final team anyway. Only risks are trusting Wilmot again next week, but he’s been scoring well, and getting LDU first week back. High risk high reward.

    Thoughts? Especially on the LDU pick?

  92. Can I keep Clayton Oliver, because then this week it will allow me to get a full premium team (including Clayton) and if I trade Clayton Oliver, it will mean I won’t be able to get a full premium team until next week this week I can cover Oliver with chesser and if I trade Clayton Oliver and therefore don’t have a full premium team. Then I will be fielding Nathan Fyfe this week. Holding Clarry will save me an extra trade aswell. I’m playing for overall score btw

    TU: Hold Clarry
    TD: Trade Clarry

  93. Humphrey is going out ->

    I have a couple of trade in options but can’t decide..
    TU: Ryan (swing Dawson into MID)
    TD: Mills

    0
  94. Final mid position:
    TU: Laird
    TD: Butters

    I know Laird probably scores more overall points, but Butters offers great MID/FWD flexibility.

    Current MIDS: Bont, Merrett, Brayshaw, Anderson, Mitchell, Green, Neale

    Comment any other options

  95. Tossing up between Walsh and Ryan. Walsh’s roll still uncertain, but Ryan is always an injury risk and was burnt early last year by 60s & 70s from him.

    TU: Luke Ryan
    TD: Sam Walsh
