The ULTIMATE Supercoach & DT team building resource
The time has come folks!
I’ve been in this AFL Fantasy Footy caper for 37 years. You’d reckon the excitement of Supercoach and/or Dreamteam opening day would wear thin. Nup. Like a kid on bloody Christmas eve at this time of the year.
It has been a HUGE pre season at Jock Central. The biggest in our 2 years on the world wide internet. We thought it would be handy for you to have this page as a quick reference to help you with your team construction. We have been cranking out resources since late last year and now is the time to get stuck right into our studies. Remember. You can be born with as much Supercoach or AFL Fantasy talent as you like. The bloke willing to bust his guts on the hard yards will ALWAYS come up trumps in this caper.
Now.. as I say this time of year every year.. for God’s sake… don’t outsmart yourselves this season! The basics will always apply regardless of how many trades we have, how many bye rounds we need to endure and how many players swing between positions.
Let us know how your team is shaping up in the comments below.. but first here is an index of our preseason material to help you all out,
And always remember – Jock loves ya.

Jock
Great work Jock, love ya work mate….__I am not sure if I will be able to sleep tonight, very excited indeed.__Do u know of any leagues I can join, looking to win some cash. Cheers__Rex
great stuff Rex! I'll have a rest after some Bonox… but will be up at sparrows fart in the morning.. joined the Jock Premier League mate? Got till midnight – no $$ though
great idea having all the resources in one post. good work guys.
would love to see the jock reynold, crouching tigers and higgo teams posted (and of course the new boys in the team).
As I have no life outside supercoach, here we go….
D/ Goddard, Gibbs, Duffield, Broughton, Staker, Pittard (Thurlow, Terlich)
M/ Gaz, Pendles, Cotchin, Shuey, Fyfe, Ball, K Mitchell, O'Mearer (Crouch, Viney)
R/ Mummy, Berger (Currie, Osbourn)
F/ Roughy, Rocky, Dusty, Breust, Varcoe, Mayes (Kerridge, Lee)
Osbourn is an intention donut for the captain loophole.
I bloody like the look of this team Jimbo. A few I'd change here and there but this is a formidible outfit you have put together here. Ball I'm iffy on.. no Franklin is a lovely touch I like it… Duff man is growing on me as the year goes on… love it
I like your team, Jimbo. Pretty solid. My team is very similar but with 8 changes(5 rookies and Shuey,Ball,Fyfe). Good luck!
How’s this Jock
Goddard Gibbs Hartlett Thurlow Goodes Docherty Terlich Colquhoun
Gazza Swan Pendles JSelwood Cotchin Maloney Toumpas Crouch OMeara Viney
Mummy Berg Currie Witts
Cox Rocky Martin Bock Varcoe Byrnes T Lee Staker
Is it true Mundy is struggling with his ankles again? Love to hear from you about my team.
similar approach we both ahve Boydo.
I have the 5 prem, 1 midprice, 4 rookies midfield as well.
As you were looking at similar players, I would like you opinion on why you chose Moloney over Ball? and the Toumpas over Koby Stevens?
I was eyeing them both off but went Ball and Stevens. Wonder why you went the other way? and were there anyone else you looked at in those spots?.
Thanks for your response jimbo went Maloney based on free running role in Lions team preseason news has said he is training strongly I think he should score similar to 2011 with a higher avg than Ball also Jock has reported Ball is still not right and worried he might start slow. Toumpas is not really set could change to wines or Stevens. If Mundy is fully fit and there are enough back rookies picked round 1 may change squad structure completely Hartlet to bock bock to stringer Toumpas to Mundy.
Hey jock and the lads loving your stuff helped me out with my team and hoping you could have a quick glance and see how it’s going thanks
Here we go
Def:Goddard, Duffman, Gibbs, Broughton, Colquhoun, Terlich, Stevenson, docherty
Mid:GAJ, Pendles, Cotchin, Murphy, mundy, moloney, Stevens, Viney, Crouch, O’meara
Ruck: Goldy, Berger, Currie, Rowe
Fwd: Franklin, Cox, Rockliff, Varcoe, Staker, lee, Kerridge, Murdoch
$67,200 left in the bank
Might use it up to upgrade Murdoch to Mayes or keep for changes to come during the Nab
Dunno TIm.. have you allowed enough growth for rookies in the mids? Surely they are gunna make the most $$$? Maybe drop one of your mid price mids and bolster the fwd line>? Or not.
like the look of Mayes….alot…..he is a lock for me at F6
I won’t post my final team but let me say what a huge help you have been old son. I will say that Im very excited about Atley down back along with my 5 Premium mids and Varcoe and my start up team has never been stronger and for that I have you to thank Jock. Can’t wait for Sunday night!
now now Shane…..
time to repay the community mate 😉
now cmon, what have you learned from the magnificence of Jock? 😉
well jock here goes

Hey Joey. Lookin good, but be super cautious on those two balls (Zieball, Ball,) as neither might start round one. Keep an on those 2.
Also how many did you pick in the mids.. 10 this year.
sorry was unaware, on it
good side mate.
but the jokes? dear dear me……..
how much money in the bank? team seems a little light for premiums.
yeah i realised i had a lot of left over dough so i have made many changes

joey. Robbie Gray is a very likely non starter round 1. the talk is more 4 weeks in.
and that's ok joey, I can guess that it Gaff based on the position in the list and the relative prices of Fyfe and Mundy. 😉
cheers mate.
nahh its not gaff its a bit off centre, cheers for the gray heads up
Dangerfield or Jelwood? Help anyone
Danger for me too but Jelwood is a nice POD

$12,200 left, any thoughts??
League 950596 for a challenge, finished top 200 2 years ago
Pav, ryder, or bartel?
Money nor RUC versatility is an issue as ive already got nic nat in the fwd line.
Nic Nat is expected to miss the first few rounds with injury, he wants to play but the club won't risk it. They said they want him 100% for the second half and won't rush him back.
Oh thanks for that mate,
Already got buddy and pav in the forward line, what other premium should I bring in? Thoughts anyone?
I have the Berg-man in the ruck, and cox up forward, who should I get as a premium ruck?
Thinking Ryder or McEvoy, thoughts?
And to add to that^ maybe even roughy?
Like McEvoy personally.
Bellchambers is taking the no 1 ruck at essendon so id go McEvoy out of those two
Could someone help me out here please? I'm liking Duffield this year but I've worked up enough money to upgrade him to Gibbs. What do you guys think? Duff or Gibbs
like them both….who else do you have back there?
Who do you all think are the best premium defenders to have? Shaw, Goddard, birchall even?
Goddard will play in mid for dons
Just wanting to know krakouer or varcoe??
Intresting Jimmy, He is up and about excitment player Krakour excitment and bargain basement price too. IMO Varcoe over Kraker at this stage until you see NAB but I was leaning towards both if fit and in top 22
Like the thought mate imagine that…Both ripping up rnd 1 and Cha-ching!!!
Is Krakouer an option this year?
not imo
Can you have a look at my team and give me some feedback. Much appreciated.

Love the work your doing jock. Petrie?? Also should I keep Krakouer AND Varcoe. Caddy and Ball?
not a fan of Krakouer, maybe Mayes?
petrie ok but less convinced by bartel. he is heading the wrong wall. (see jock's bartel artical. Breust or Martin could be a consideration.
if you have the coin Moloney rather than Caddy?
good mate.
hey guys i need your advice badly, so could everyone please help
backline: goddard gibbs duffman broughton terlich colquhoun thurlow docherty
midfield: ablett pendlebury cotchin murphy mundy moloney stevens viney o'meara crouch
ruck: goldstein leuenberger currie rowe
forward: franklin cox rockliff varcoe staker mayes kerridge lee
i have 3 brisbane players in my forward line and i need them to
also should i downgrade mundy to k.mitchell and upgrade staker to roughhead then put staker in backline.
can someone please help me with this because im in a puzzle
no worries tim…….lets see what we can do.
back 4 premiums = all good
back 4 rookies = all good although I prefer staker up back.
mid 4 premiums = solid. My preference was to find a way to get murphy to swan. Gives you 3 absolute keepers, no questions. prehaps downgrade moloney to K Mitchell giving you Swan if you are interested…
mid rookies = all good.
Fwd premiums = solid although manged to get martin in as the 4th 'Premium' as I turned franklin into Breust, 3rd 'Premium'. (assumption I know)
Fwd rookies = all good
rucks = all good
phew…all done
thanks jimbo im gonna get swan later in the year because IMO swan has before last half of the season.
and with martin i cant afford him if i get swan and i have 167k in the bank and i wouldnt know what to do with it
but if i did the swan mover what should i do with my team then?
yeah tim…did the maths and $50k short. bugger that.
i would try to get K Mitchel in there but I would downgrade Moloney.
Mundy is more likely value for money
if i down grade moloney i would have 239k but thats with murphy and with swan 167k, should i just hold the cash for trading time at the start of the season 🙂
hey tim.
just some ideas for you to think about,
if you don't have clear objective for the money sit tight till a plan forms in your head.
I have learned enough from Jock to know that sometimes we make changes for the sake of it.
People will suggest lots of things (like me -oops) but I would now only make a change when you are sure.
You have a structurally strong side…..try not to muck with the foundations.
thanks jimbo you have been a whole lot of help
i have a plan if i get fyfe instead of swan i have 343k left and i upgrade staker to martin and swap thurlow to staker the bad thing is i cant afford if im 3k short but if i do the captain loophole and have a 96k pllayer in the ruck ill have enough to get him. also to do the loophole i will get rid of rowe, and do you think he will get a game this season?
if so then the martin trade wont be worth it cause i can make money with rowe
hey tim.
dont think rowe will play much. 3 rucks ahead of him.
i picked osbourn cause adelaide have few sunday games.
I would consider doing those changes
with those changes i have 14kin the bank
Hey jimbo, I've been following this forum for a while and I like the way you think. Obviously Jock is a good teacher. So can you run the ruler over this team and let me know what you think?

Can upgrade Heppel to Goddard which leaves $21,700. What do ya think?
like it alot choppers.
leave backline . all good
in fact whole side good.
just wonder if jpk will be able to repeat the dose. maybe go straight to swan and have the best 3 years end.
Done. Swan at M2 and $81K left. Might also bring K Mitchell in for Colquhoun. I'll wait for NAB though. Thanks for advice.

community…….community service announcement.
Please place a big red 'contract delayed till end of season. WARNING! Cloke?' and then trade out franklin from your sides and place immediately on your watchlist for further monitoring.
This one will go on for a while and may just get as ugly as Cloke's. Dont forget Buddy is old housemates with Wellingham and where does he live now.
Imagine what happens if he puts in a shocking first 3 rounds….pumps out 60's…it will be a circus.
And then the Dockers then put an offer the biggest ever seen. As a guess $1.25 million dollars a year for 4 years. No personal KPI's.
And then imagine we find out that he is one of the self-reporting drug users.
WOW.
Guys, I can see this stuff in the tea leaves clear as a bell, The Zoo is open for business.
he has too much talent and ability to score 60's consistently in my humble opinion.
yes it is likely he will leave hawthorn at the end of 2013 but he will want to play well to bump his score up..
buddy is a must have
great thinking jimbo im with you this one he will drop down price to about 500k-550k by round 6-8
in some ways, the most likely scenario could be the worst.
Where he turns from a 120 pt player into a 95 – 105 point player.
He is not playing well but doing enough to keep you hopeful that he is about to turn the corner.
well well well
what are peoples opinion on B THORNTON's move to the GWS..
he will attract plenty of game time and surely will rack of plenty of easy possessions.. at 318,000 dt price, that is not too bad at all..
please give me your thoughts readers
rex
Thornton will def get plenty of game time and will surely play a big part in the giants defense imo. Ive got him in my side. hope this helps

goodes is on the rookie list.. hmm I would not go with him.
brian lake is a possible option to boost your numbers down back,
martin up forward is a big risk, safer bet would be mark lecras
Bullies still have 1 spot left to upgrade a rookie, I believe. Watch Goodes during NAB, if he plays well he'll probably get a senior spot.
With Gazza as number 1 premium, who are you guys going with as your number 2?
[polldaddy 6873636 http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll/6873636/ polldaddy]

cheers
Leunberger at 301k is a steal check out 2011 stats
Jock old son what are your thoughts on L.Hodge?
Consider?
If he peaks again its an easy 100k back in the kitty
luke parker would be a safer option if u are looking at boosting your money,
or even b moloney
Im not looking entirely to gain cash from him. But when he is220k less than swan, im wondering if i bank him to return to his proven premium scores. And seeing that a lot of people already have similar teams there has to be a few (smart) risks taken haha if he does return to premium then i wont have to sell him off.
yeah fair call, I like your thinking, i just don't know if I am that confident in him achieving consistent numbers.. he really did taper off last year especially. (hence the price)…..
but he is a quality player so his numbers may increase this year??????? it def is a gamble but a solid one at that.. best of luck
Am I the only bloke guying 6 Deep in the MIDS??? Midfield currently sits at Ablett, Pendles, Jobe, JP Kennedy, Dangerfield, Cotchin……..K.Stevens, Crouch (Viney, O'Meara).
Thoughts from the community???
Agreed! At this stage I am going a 6-4 premium rookie middle also.
I'll shall join u at the top of the leader board then Higgo!!
Nice. I've gone 5-5 myself, with Ablett, Swan, Pendlebury, Kennedy and Cotchin as my premiums and Stevens, Wines, Crouch, Viney and O'Meara as the rest. I'd be interested in seeing your team just to see what areas you skimped on to get the 6 premiums.
Back line is Goddard Gibbs then drops to Pederson then rookies. Forwards are cox t.walker rocky then cash cows and rookies. Rucks sandi Berger. All based on rookies all getting named round 1.
3-5-1-2 for me get cash cows and rookies and trade them at their peak for premiums
My tactic on each line is:
Def: 4 Prem – 1 Mid – 3 Rook
Mid: 5 Prem – 1 Mid – 4 Rook
Ruc: 1 Prem – 1 Mid – 2 Rook
Fwd/ 4 Prem – 1 Mid – 3 Rook
Pretty well balanced I think…?
Been looking at my mids and thought up this little discussion piece……
what do you think?
I think the days of thinking just ‘Premium or Non-Premiums is no longer relevant.
When you look at a particular line there are certain roles you want in each position. You then go shopping for the best candidates for those roles.
so my midfield has a few roles to fill…
– 3 Guns (Locked) – free hit. Just find me the best 3 players for this year. (For me that is Gaz, DePendles and Swan)
– 1 Premium between $580 and $640 (ish) – This is a player that is just outside ‘the very best’ mids but will join the elite uber super premium list. (My selection is Cotchin – Murphy could be an option here)
– 1 High end ‘Break out player’ – someone between $500k and $600k that will finish in the top 8 players. (Mine – L Shuey)
– 1 High end ‘rookie or relocator’ – Someone between $150k – $210k. This is my high end cash cow selection. Ideally he will be the last upgraded cow and will be use as bench cover for F8 (K Stevens)
– 4 ‘rookie guns’ – Who are the best under $130k players out there. Get me the best 4.
If all goes to plan.
Do you guys think the same way when structuring your lines?
Crouch, Omeara, Viney, Lonergan other possibles Jsimpson DPP or Colquhoun DPP but these guys may not get much game time early, also M Jones worth a look depending on NAB cup.
sorry fyfe not shuey – oops

hey dan.

frwd: franklin walker zorko varcoe, lecras, daniher emg : mayes and lee
hmmm, this will be a big question all year.
personally I am not going with any midpricers in the mids (pure ruck and rookie strategy).
however out of the two I think Ball is the better player in the better side (and most likely to get first hands on the ball)
but Moloney is a great selection as well, better than embley.
cheers
Alrighty, this is my first official supercoach side for the season comments would be great.
Backs: Goddard, Gibbs, Birchall, Broughton, Docherty, Terlich

Mids: Ablett, Swan, Pendlebury, Cotchin, Fyfe, O'Meara, Crouch, Viney

Rucks: Golstien, Leuenberger
(Currie, Osborn)
Forwards: Franklin, Cox, Roughead, Rockliff, Macaffer, Staker
(Lee, Kerridge)
Whats everyones thoughts on Monfries?
New club and from what ive heard will b spending a bit of time in the centre,
hey watto.
small chance for a break out but more than likely just a solid 80 point player.
not good enough to be a keeper and unlikely to be a great cash cow compared to others.
May do OK but there are just too many better options out there.
Only consider if he absolutely tears it apart in the NAB…(and even then not convinced)
cheers.
Any advice for my team? So far this is how it stands obviously more changes to come
Goddard, Birchall, Grima, Atley, BOck, Pederson (Vlaustin and Goodes)
Swan, Murphy, Hayes, Rockliff, Boak, Ball, Embley, J lonergan (K Mitchell and J viney)
Hmac, Berger (Grundy and Rowe)
Pavlich, Broughton, LeCras, Gray, Varcoe, Daniher (Staker, Macaffer)
Grund for curry midfield looks poor wheres crouch ablett
hi les.
very high risk strategy to have boak, ball and embley in the mid.
and lecras, varcoe, Maccaffer and gray in the forward.
chuck in berger and bock and you are relying on 9 players not having any injury set back. If it all works then great but if it goes wrong you are pretty much shot for the year.
Don't know if Hayes will be in the top 8 mids by years end so it only gives you 2 keepers in the mids. In fact I can only see 8 keepers by year end. You may want to try and get that up to around 10 – 12.
Cheers
Changed my team
Goddard, Birchall, Grima, Atley, BOck, Goodes (Staker and Colquhoun)
Swan, Kennedy, K.Jack, Rockliff, Fyfe, Embley, Kerridge, O'Meara (Crouch and J viney)
Hmac, Berger (Grundy and Rowe)
Franklin, Pavlich, Roughead, Gray, Varcoe, Daniher (T.Lee, Macaffer)
That shows a more dominant team especially considering swannies have gws and gold coast in first three games.
Not sure whether to have robbie gray or Mark LeCras
Hey Les.
Gray is looking more and more shakey for the round 1 start. LeCras definitely of the two.
This is just a personal thing, would move kerridge in to lee's post up forward and then slot in K Mitchell.
If the money is there, ball is probably a better option than Embley IMO.
Cheers
Thanks jim have made a few changes have plenty of change to upgrade ebmley to ball. And i was looking for a spot to insert mitchell and that sounds good.
Which combo community
1. Fyfe & Mundy
2. Swan & Moloney
hey tim.
Swann will be one of the top 3 by years end. It will be harder to get him as the year rolls on. bag that 130 points per game now.
cheers

And any advice would be appreciated
That’s probably one of the best teams I’ve seen so far Tim great stuff.
My mids and back premiums are the same but I keep worrying about having both pendles and swan, they both played 18 games last year so that’s 8 games I’m missing 100+ scores which could be around 1000 total pts by year end.
Anyway great looking team
does anyone else think that with the best mid rookies so well defined and so few options up forward, that the year might come down to the defensive rookies?
Large variety available, all untried, all the same price.
Those coaches that nail them might go some way to a winning team.
cheers

hey Chris.
I'm liking the look of this side. A different approach to what I am doing but it seems to work.
Only arguement is there maybe one too many rookies on the forward and defense lines for my liking.
I would (IMO) move Goddard up back into Jaksch position. I would then make sure that I get Jaeger O'Meara in that midfield.
I would finally move Varcoe up forward for Simpson and slot K Mitchell into the mids.
K Mitchell, O'Meara, Viney and Crouch are all putting forward cases in being a MANDATORY picks in the mids this year.
Hope it heaps.
Cheers
What does anyone think about having Ryder this year in fwd line, I’ve heard bellchambers might be number 1 ruck if so what could that do to Ryders scores, could he avg over 100+?
Do you think Bock is worth the risk?
No. He won’t play for at least the first two weeks.
hey les.
he looked very sore at training today. even if the injury is healed then surely his fitness must be miles behind.
No for me
Cheers
Hi Guys,
This will be my second season of SuperCoach….I need to get my team right this year to start. I am new to this community and would like to receive as much help as possible from this community to be able to at least compete in my office league….please have a look at my team below and any suggestions/comments from anybody would be highly appreciated….
DEFENDERS:
B Goddard, B Gibbs, P Hanley, G Broughton, B Goodes, B Staker, (S Docherty, S Colquhoun)
MIDFIELDERS:
G Ablett, D Swan, S Pendlebury, M Murphy, N Fyfe, B Moloney, K Stevens, J O'Meara, (B Crouch, J Viney)
RUCKS:
N Naitanui, M Leuenberger, (D Currie, J Osborn)
FORWARDS:
D Cox, M LeCras, A Siposs, T Varcoe, S Byrnes, J Simpson, (S Kerridge, T Lee)
I have got $220,300 left in my bank……any suggestions / comments would be highly appreciated…….
Thank you,
Chandanraj
this is a good side first up Chand……
Backline is solid
Personally I am only going for 1 midprice but very solid selections.
Rucks arent bad but NicNat wont be playing for 6 weeks minimum. Suggest moving Coxs into the ruck.
up forward is a little light. I the space now left I would suggest Roughead. He has a duel position available and can swing with Cox!
One last suggestion is to upgrade LeCras or Siposs to a Zorko or Rockliff or even Walker if you like. just strengthen it up a bit.
cheers
thanks Jim for your comments…..much appreciated……
Moloney or Parker??? please help….
Hey Chand.
Moloney by just a little. Can expect a higher ceiling on Moloney.
cheers
Thanks Jim…
Have made couple of changes based on your earlier comment yesterday….
Rucks:
S Jacobs in place of Nic Naitnui
Forwards:
J Roughhead in place of A Siposs
Hope fully this works…….
Thank you
Raj…
No for the big question.
What impact will the Essendon Scandal have on SC?
Will the Bombers play at all? Will they play but not for premiership points? Will it all be OK, but just a massive pre season distraction which derails their start to the season? Will it affect Monfries and his dream season start at Port?
I HAD Goddard and Bellchambers, I don’t now.
What does everyone else think about keeping Bombers players in their starting line up?
Hi all, 2013 team newly assembled, would appreciate any feedback;
B: Goddard, Gibbs, Duffield, Hanley, Goodes, Staker (Aylett, Terlich)
M: Ablett, Swan, Cotchin, Murphy, Moloney, Stevens, Crouch, O’meara (Viney, Colquhon)

F: Cox, Roughead, Rockliff, Broughton, Varcoe, Mayes (Kerridge, Lee)
With 50k in the bank.
Any thoughts/advice welcome,
Cheers, Tom
open question….for those who kept hold of Franklin, are you a little concerned about buddy pulling out of the all stars game.
Happy to be proven wrong but something funny has been around Franklin since the week before his injury last year.
Cheers

Wondering thoughts on me team shinbonin_ya_mum

FWD – buddy, Stevie J, rockliff, tomahawk
Dusty, Mayes, ( t menzal, J Simpson)
Went for youth a bit in the mid hoping
It pays off…
Pretty good start
Would recommend Viney to start over crouch.
And you definetly need luenenburger from Brisbane in the ruck his price will sky rocket.
dont know if beam is the best of the collingwood options. surely pendles is better?
cheers.
Thanks for the feedback boys appreciate it

hey mate.
Lots of POD's here. IMO you need at least 2 of goddard, waters, shaw, birchall or duffield up back.
maybe one of swan, pendles, cotchin, JPK, Danger, Watson.
and a franklin, roughy, pavlich or coxs?
Like the variety but probably just missing a few of the top shelf guys.
cheers.
and dont forget staker just died as far as supercoach goes
Really confused as to what to do, so help would be really greatful!!!
DEF: Goddard, Gibbs, Broughton, Atley, Goodes, Van Unen (Docherty, Terlich)
MID: Ablett, Swan, Cotchin, Swallow, Fyfe, Moloney, O'Meara, Viney (Couch, Colquhoun)

FWD: Cox, Pavlich, Rockliff, Vercoe, Byrnes, Macaffer (Kerridge, Lee)
What are your thoughts on the team as a whole? But more specifically, what are your thoughts on not having Franklin in for Rd 1. He's a slow starter and won't score high very quickly, so will wait for him to drop and then pick him up maybe around Rd 4-5? Don't know who to trade him for though….
Thanks 🙂
