PODCAST | But Where Have All The Rookies Gone?
To paraphrase Patch “Noah Batla is the single greatest Supercoach selection to have ever lived. He’s the greatest Supercoacher to have ever Supercoached bar NONE.” And if it wasn’t for the great man we wouldn’t have a single field-worthy rookie (O’Brien excluded) to discuss. The news doesn’t get better for coaches looking for downgrade options […]
Who’s Your Captain? – Round 10
Top VICE CAPTAIN Options Brodie Grundy Friday Night vs Sydney – AVG vs Team: 103.6 With a score of 167 last time Grundy came up against the Swans, and 103.6 average over his career, Grundy has to be seriously considered. Most weeks you can put the C or VC on Grundy and this week is […]
Around The Grounds – Round 9
There were some big scores on offer in Round 9 and even better with some of those scores even coming from our rookie selections! We’re also getting close to the bye rounds which begin in just 3 weeks, so now might be the time for people to start strategizing on their trades to make sure […]
Heroes, Villains and the Damned – Round 9
Plenty of heroes, but even more villains this week. Who will never make our team again? And which player is back on our watchlist? More importantly, which rookies can we bring in soon? All that and more below. Heroes Shannon Hurn (161) – Just watching that game you could tell Hurn was going to have […]
SuperCoach Panic Room: Round 9
Round 9 is upon us community and we’ve only got *checks fixture* … 11 more weeks of utter pain and humiliation before SuperCoach finals begin (but I did beat Lek in a head to head on the weekend!). It was another weird week in SuperCoach land with some yuggggge scores from Tim and Josh Kelly, […]
Supercoach Cheat sheet | Pre-round 9
Well community, I’ve for a confession to make. I’ve got to admit, I’m really struggling this year and I can’t seem to get back to a reasonable score. Thankfully it’s not rookies who’ve burnt me (I think my advice has been solid), but my premos. Whitfield, Crisp, Martin>Brayshaw, Shiel, Danger, Heeney. There’s not a lot […]
Who’s Your Captain? – Round 9
I really hope you have a non-playing rookie this week that isn’t Patrick Bines because the Eagles playing on Friday night really puts you in a tight spot. Top VICE CAPTAIN Options – Max Gawn Friday Night vs West Coast – AVG vs Team: 100.8 Averaging 132.3 over his last three games against the Eagles, […]
PODCAST | Operation: Get Good Players (Like Noah Balta)
HE’S DONE IT. He’s bloody DONE it, community – Noah Batla is the single greatest Supercoach selection to have ever lived. If you’ve got him, throw the C on him. If you don’t have him, move heaven and earth to bring him in ASAP, if not sooner. He’s the greatest Supercoacher to have ever Supercoached […]
Around the Grounds – Round 8 Rookie Scout Report
What a week round 8 was! There was good, some bad and some real ugly stuff out there. We had some unfortunate injuries strike, we had some poor scores from rookies and we had some pleasant surprises also (props if anyone started Noah Balta this week). It’s a new week of football on the horizon […]
Heroes, Villains, and The Damned – Round 8
Heroes Josh P Kennedy (116) – JPK had a big game for the Swans in the thriller, but could’ve pushed his score north of 130 if he kicked his two goal attempts. He hasn’t been a top player this year, but he’s an old reliable player who’s capable of some decent scores. Zach Merrett (129) – […]
SuperCoach Panic Room: Round 8
You may be aware that SuperCoach is used in schools to teach kids about #QuickMaths, buying and selling, and such and such. I propose that it also be used in psychology studies. The 5 stages of grief: denial, anger, depression, bargaining, acceptance; are something I experience every week! It all begins with denial pre-round that […]
Supercoach Cheat Sheet | Pre-round 8
Welcome back supercoaches. Hopefully you haven’t deleted your team in disgust after last week’s pitiful displays from many of out beloved premos. I barely scraped into the high 1900s myself after a double downgrade and holding Whitfield on the bench. But this week is different. This week we can start anew. In the words of […]
