Supercoach Rd 12 : Rookie Scout Report
Well, we’re through the first bye week and it seemed to go smooth enough all things considered, despite some of the usual Fremantle difficulties.
Howdy folks and welcome to this week’s Supercoach Scout Report! We’re onto the second round of byes this week, helped somewhat by there only being 4 teams off instead of the usual 6, those being Geelong, North Melbourne, Richmond and West Coast. There’s also several quality looking trade in targets looming from sides like Carlton, Melbourne and St Kilda on offer as we look to send some rookies off to cash cow heaven and upgrade to premium players.
We’ll have slightly less than usual to cover off this week thanks to the bye rounds, but we’ll still have a look at everything that happened across the entire country when it comes to Supercoach rookies. So, let’s go take a look!
MUST LISTEN – THIS WEEK’S PODCAST IS OUT NOW.. AND WE’RE PIMPING OUR TEAMS.
Port Adelaide VS Hawthorn
Sam Powell-Pepper
FWD | SC Price: $325,200
Round 11 Stats: 18 disposals, 6 tackles, 1 goal, 88 SCPoints, 72 CKPoints
Ryan Burton
FWD | SC Price: $408,000
Round 11 Stats: 25 disposals, 11 marks, 5 tackles, 89 SCPoints, 118 CKPoints
James Cousins
FWD | SC Price: $102,400
Round 11 Stats: 12 disposals, 3 marks, 6 tackles, 56 SCPoints, 62 CKPoints
Dallas Willsmore
FWD | SC Price: $123,900
Round 11 Stats: 10 disposals, 6 marks, 4 tackles, 46 SCPoints, 62 CKPoints
Blake Hardwick
FWD | SC Price: $268,700
Round 11 Stats: 10 disposals, 3 marks, 5 tackles, 52 SCPoints, 55 CKPoints
Sam Powell-Pepper continues his solid form, with a 3-round average of 71 SCPoints. His BE is 49 this week, so there’s no immediate need to trade him out yet, and he has two games coming up for the remainder of the bye rounds against Essendon and Brisbane which could see him score decently.
James Cousins is on the bubble this week, as is Dallas Willsmore. They look to have similar potential, but with Cousins being the cheaper option, he’s probably your go there if he’s named this week. Ryan Burton has started to struggle just a tad, along with the rest of the Hawks. His 3-round average is just 73 SCPoints, while his BE is 95. At his price though, he’s only a 72K upgrade to someone like Michael Hibberd, which isn’t bad at all.
Geelong VS Adelaide
James Parsons
FWD | SC Price: $199,000
Round 11 Stats: 14 disposals, 4 marks, 3 tackles, 1 goal, 56 SCPoints, 58 CKPoints
Tom Stewart
FWD | SC Price: $298,300
Round 11 Stats: 19 disposals, 3 marks, 3 tackles, 73 SCPoints, 69 CKPoints
Andy Otten
FWD | SC Price: $376,200
Round 11 Stats: 9 disposals, 2 marks, 1 goal, 36 SCPoints, 40 CKPoints
Jake Kelly
FWD | SC Price: $312,000
Round 11 Stats: 10 disposals, 2 marks, 2 tackles, 50 SCPoints, 40 CKPoints
Hugh Greenwood
FWD | SC Price: $196,900
Round 11 Stats: 18 disposals, 1 mark, 11 tackles, 72 SCPoints, 94 CKPoints
Tom Stewart and Hugh Greenwood were the value selections here, with Stewart now having scores of 91 and 73 over his last two games, while Greenwood has a 3-round average of 82 SCPoints. Stewart is a trick one here with the bye this week. His BE is 12, so he still has some value in him, but all it’ll is a repeat of his efforts against Melbourne (22 SCPoints), Hawthorn (52), Essendon (46) or the Bulldogs (52) for him to cut his earning potential to zero. So if you have to move him this week, I wouldn’t be against it at all.
Andy Otten didn’t play well at all against the Cats (though he wasn’t alone there on the Crows side of things), but has an achievable BE of 65 this week. He may be the same as Stewart though, at best he’s probably got one more price rise in him, so if you need to trade him, don’t hesitate.

Gold Coast VS West Coast
Will Brodie
FWD | SC Price: $175,800
Round 11 Stats: 9 disposals, 3 marks, 7 tackles, 32 SCPoints, 61 CKPoints
Jarrod Witts
FWD | SC Price: $466,300
Round 11 Stats: 14 disposals, 3 marks, 4 tackles, 34 hitouts, 96 SCPoints, 89 CKPoints
Nathan Vardy
FWD | SC Price: $329,000
Round 11 Stats: 10 disposals, 4 marks, 14 hitouts, 73 SCPoints, 55 CKPoints
Will Brodie hasn’t done a heck of a lot to gain our attention in Supercoach, especially with the slightly inflated price tag. He’s averaging 32 SCPoints and his BE is already at 40, so if his current form continues, you may actually be able to get him cheaper next week! Jarrod Witts continues to do enough to probably be considered a keeper in the ruck at this point.
GWS VS Essendon
Harry Perryman
FWD | SC Price: $167,300
Round 11 Stats: 12 disposals, 4 marks, 1 goal, 43 SCPoints, 54 CKPoints
Daniel Lloyd
FWD | SC Price: $172,700
Round 11 Stats: 6 disposals, 1 mark, 1 goal, 31 SCPoints, 34 CKPoints
Matthew Kennedy
FWD | SC Price: $336,700
Round 11 Stats: 13 disposals, 5 marks, 6 tackles, 1 goal, 62 SCPoints, 70 CKPoints
Tim Taranto
FWD | SC Price: $368,100
Round 11 Stats: 17 disposals, 5 marks, 4 tackles, 1 goal, 85 SCPoints, 78 CKPoints
Andrew McGrath
FWD | SC Price: $368,200
Round 11 Stats: 15 disposals, 5 marks, 4 tackles, 55 SCPoints, 68 CKPoints
David Myers
FWD | SC Price: $214,300
Round 11 Stats: 17 disposals, 1 tackle, 1 goal, 46 SCPoints, 52 CKPoints
James Stewart
FWD | SC Price: $215,900
Round 11 Stats: 9 disposals, 5 marks, 1 tackle, 35 SCPoints, 47 CKPoints
Tim Taranto has continued his good form, scoring 85 SCPoints, which sees him averaging 78 SCPoints over his last 6 weeks of football. It may soon be time for him however, with his BE at 61 and the bye coming up, his game against Carlton this week could be the last one he spends in your squad. He’s served us well though. The very same could also be repeated for Andrew McGrath. His BE is 62 this week, he has the Round 13 bye also, while he has also averaged 78 SCPoints over the last 7 weeks. Both started out slowly, but both have been terrific long term investments, if you stuck with them.
North Melbourne VS Richmond
Ed Vickers-Willis
FWD | SC Price: $268,100
Round 11 Stats: 12 disposals, 2 marks, 2 tackles, 51 SCPoints, 42 CKPoints
Kayne Turner
FWD | SC Price: $353,600
Round 11 Stats: 9 disposals, 3 marks, 3 tackles, 55 SCPoints, 46 CKPoints
Daniel Butler
FWD | SC Price: $270,300
Round 11 Stats: 13 disposals, 4 marks, 2 goals, 58 SCPoints, 63 CKPoints
Shai Bolton
FWD | SC Price: $155,000
Round 11 Stats: 11 disposals, 5 marks, 1 tackle, 44 SCPoints, 44 CKPoints
Some pretty “meh” results here for Supercoach, although Daniel Butler earned himself a Rising Star nomination. Both the Tigers and North Melbourne are on the bye this week, so none will really do us much good this week, although Butler has a BE of 66, which is above his season average of 63, while Kayne Turner has a BE of 74, which is the same as his current 3-round average. Not much more blood to be squeezed from that stone I’d say.

Fremantle VS Collingwood
Luke Ryan
FWD | SC Price: $117,300
Round 11 Stats: 7 disposals, 2 marks, 4 tackles, 37 SCPoints, 36 CKPoints
Cam McCarthy
FWD | SC Price: $309,300
Round 11 Stats: 9 disposals, 3 marks, 5 tackles, 1 goal, 50 SCPoints, 59 CKPoints
Matthew Scharenberg
FWD | SC Price: $164,000
Round 11 Stats: 12 disposals, 5 marks, 1 tackle, 46 SCPoints, 53 CKPoints
Tim Broomhead
FWD | SC Price: $278,100
Round 11 Stats: 19 disposals, 4 marks, 1 tackle, 64 SCPoints, 65 CKPoints
Will Hoskin-Elliot
FWD | SC Price: $376,200
Round 11 Stats: 18 disposals, 8 marks, 2 goals, 90 SCPoints, 88 CKPoints
Cripes, we bugged Ross Lyon all bloody season to play Luke Ryan and then what does he do? Blurts out a 7 disposal, 37 SCPoints. Bah! But, I am a forgiving man, so we won’t write the young man off after a shaky performance in his first AFL game. Give him another week and then see how he goes (if he gets selected that is).
Matthew Scharenberg has also been slightly disappointing so far, averaging just 55 SCPoints. Not a ton of options available to downgrade down back though, so he might just be the best available unfortunately. He put up plenty of stats in the VFL though, so I’m sure he could still turn his year around yet.
Will Hoskin-Elliot is another one like Taranto and McGrath probably. His BE is 68, which is reasonable, and he’s averaged 81 SCPoints over his last 6 weeks, which isn’t bad also. Like them, he also has the Round 13 bye, so this may be his last week in our sides.

And that’s it from me, but as always, if you have any questions or comments, feel free to leave them in the section below, or drop me a line on the twitters
@BarronVonCrow
All the prices seem eerily similar
Consistent bunch this season aye
Sucks ass if you were going to downgrade this week, eh?
All sorted if you refresh now lads!
Awesome BVC. I'm sure Kirby will be mentioned at the selection table. Has dropped 7kgs since preseason started. But probably has 8-10 to go. Fastest fat bloke I've ever seen & a goal kicking machine. Cal Brown all but a certainty to line up for a debut. Daicos maybe later in the season
Cheers Pieman
I haven't watched many of his games, but Kirby certainly looks to have the knack in front of goals. Have now kicked 16.7 in 6 games.
He reads the play very well & knows where to be. And his tricks are awesome. It's just a fitness issue
Hope he breaks through. Excited for the memes!
Would break through the average deck chair so fingers crossed
Bring on the new slimlined Fatso
Look for Adelaide to name a rookie this week. Doedee, Wigg and Beech are very close to a call up.
Brown out with a fractured cheekbone might give Doedee or Wigg the nod.
You'd think Cheney would get that gig.
Beech it is – thoughts Baz?
Heard on the radio that Spencer is available for selection this week, Gawn is 2 weeks away. So give Gawn 2 weeks to drop in price after he resumes, that would make it around round 17 as the ideal time to bring him in.
Sounds good. Might work especially well if you have Nank in the ruck and still need a FWD upgrade too.
Gawn is listed as 3-4 away. Then needs 2 games to crash in price. My calculation is about round 18. That will make it tough for anyone under 5 trades. Might cost 2 to get him in. Will be a very interesting conundrum when it happens
It will take some planning. Gawn maybe drops to 500K = Greenwood 350K plus another 150K from somewhere. ( Bolton type I guess). 2 trades though..
Hoping Witts or Sandi can shake hands with him with just the 1 trade. I suppose if you have Nank in your ruck line that's a different problem
Best option for a forward rookie?
Adelaide may bring in beech at some stage. Id wait a week or 2 if you can.
Brown very close to a debut at the Pies. 117k mid/fwd
Miles might be close. had a game for Box Hill in VFL last week and got through ok.
better to go both the berg and ryan? or pick one and go a premo…
both not setting the world on fire as of yet…
I'd go one and premo.
that's probably best… ahhh but to go the berg this week or ryan the next. tough tough.
Cheers BVC, heard a whisper that Buzza may come in for Tomahawk to face the Eagles in a fortnight, not sure he'd get more than a game or two though.
Yes, someone had posted once somewhere that Buzza was ahead of Black at the moment, so he very well could be in line to make his debut.
If he is named he will be in my team
I'm sure that's tongue in cheek DM, you'd think one of Lonergan, Henderson, Hawkins or Taylor would need to be out for a while for him to get a decent run at it.
Golden as always BvC.
Anything further on Balic and his personal issues community? Is he close to a return or worth grabbing bubble boy Cousins?
Thanks SC.
The West Australian posted he's expected back in the next fortnight to return full footy duties. How long he spends in the WAFL from there is anyones guess, so I'm guessing it'll be another 4 weeks at a minimum before he has a chance of returning to the AFL side.
Cheers Baz!
Hopefully sooner, he's a legitimate cash cow and I need him asap.
See below pod….don't bank on it.
Don't bank on it… I've sold out on a baseball 2nd missed hit rumour…ssshhhh
Sorry about the prices everyone. My 2am brain glossed right over it!
Will be updating shortly
Cain Ackland a good ruck option?
you forgot to mention that Zac Dawson kicked another goal.
If Chris Mayne can get 4 years on 500K a year then surely Zac Dawson deserves more than that!
He probably did it by accident.
There should be a VFL SC.
He was passing it to a guy in the forward pocket
Awesome work again BVC.
Z. Williams or Roberton?
Robbo
Great info as always Barron….
I like the idea of unlimited trades in SC. but any trades over 1 per week will cost SC Points. They do that in EPL fantasy.
The weekly prize money needs to go for that to happen. Too many will focus on creating designer teams with top premiums/102k rookies
not if the points come off that weeks score
Can't see it happening tbh. When fantasy made it possible to do two trades per week it appealed to the casual player. For SC to say you can have unlimited trades but every trade after 2 per week will cost x-amount of points just muddies the waters.
They should push the draft and perfect 9 formats more. Maybe even follow fantasy's lead in having a new set of dpps every 6 weeks. Would keep those players who give up/lose interest a reason to visit the site.
Hiring a person that knows code to fix the bloody app would be a step in right direction too!
That's called perfect 9
I want it to go the other way and revert back to 24 trades for the year. Far more strategic. It'll seperate the men from the boys.
Yeah 24 is far more difficult. The prize hasn't changed much either. But they didn't get much take up when they added a car in the knockout comp for an expensive premo hsun membership. But a bigger prize will draw a few more in.
Bringing in Hibberd this week.
Should i upgrade SPP, Berry or Stewart.
Have 23 already this week
Berry
how many do you have next week?
you might need all of them next week
nah i'll be fine i tanked R11 am looking at 20/21 next week
Griffin is injured is there a chance that strnadica might get a game soon?
Maybe Darcy in front of Sterndicka.
He wasn't mentioned on AFL's selection post and that's usually reliable
are you sure it wasn't the other Griffin who plays for GWS?
Just read that on afl site, fair chance.
My bad you are right. Turned on the radio to SEN and heard them mention Griffin being injured
Considering Shaw is a bad move. He will be out of my team soon, his role has been stolen. Out of those options though I would take option 2 since Yeo has the bye this week.
Good players, get em if you don't have already.
Get in Roberton or johanisen
roberton
Can't afford Doch, is Roberton my best option? (Have Laid, Adams, Lloyd and JJ)
toss up between hibberd/roberton
Hope not….best loop ever…always playing late.
What will Lloyds break even be after this week? (163 this week)
Depends what he scores. 100 this week his b.e next week will be around the 140 mark
Oh ok, no rush then
despite the fact i've bagged yeo all year and i still don't have him, 1 appeals the most to me.
I like Montagna, if he can make it through to the end of year, Saints will be pushing for a finals spot. He might average 100 or more from here on and he is pretty cheap atm.
I'm not a fan of Greene (he dropped off last year just when i bought him) and I've looked at Lynch for Steele and think (hope) Steele will score about the same til the end.
Macrae or Wallis?
Macrae solid, Wallis value but risky
Macrae. More proven.
I like option 3
Community, I have GWS Lloyd. Has made 55k but only 31 points last week. Low BE at 18 but average of 46 and dropping. Doesn't seem to be a lot of cash generation left but only takes one good score to change that.
Cousins on the bubble and need cash generation – do I punt Lloyd now and take the 70k it gives me or hold? (also have SPP, Ward (don't ask), or Barrett I could trade for cousins).
In Jock's words, this has been a horrible anus for me and I'm playing catchup. The wisdom of the community would be appreciated.
How many trades do you have left?
15
Go cousins
Grab cash keep premo ish players.
Roberton and Yeo if you can afford it
Just considering VC options and there are plenty of likeable ones this week. I always try to find the potential massive score then see if I have a safety net. This week I have:
Bont or Hanners/jpk (whoever i bring in)
Sloane
T Mitchell
Rocky
I'll take Bont over the sydney boys, but I think Sloane and Mitchell have potential to get up towards 200. Rocky is iffy after his shoulder.
Mitchell against the suns is appealing and if that fails, Docherty or cross my fingers on Treloar. Unfortunately no Pendles.
Who should I get for Sandipants, 2 continous weeks and with the bye next week, that would be 3 in a row I have 556 to play around with and witts in the other r position and nank in the fwd line with darcy cameron on the bench
What does Mitch Hibberd (NTH) need to do to get another game or two…hopefully he gets a go after the bye
been playing consistent
