Yeah nah cool, like my week wasn't cooked already lmao

[AFL @AFL]

The Saints have made a late change for #AFLSunsSaints, Ryan Byrnes has replaced Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera (managed) in the selected side.

@NaCheers I'd hold, you might win if you move Serong to Holmes but you'll definitely lose if you run out of trades by year's end. Serong becomes a priority when close to/at full premo IMO.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@Brian1140714117 I didn't watch the game but apparently Sanders was following him all night... Exactly my point, don't even need to hard tag him, just have to give him some attention

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

Caleb Serong very quickly making his way on to the never-again list, he's just so taggable, infuriating!

#Supercoach

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

Welp, thought Blakiston with main ruck duties and Windsor as a full time mid would both be slam dunk picks at their price... Wasn't expecting a lot and they've still disappointed lmao

Think these are my trades for this week (assuming Pou is out for a while).

Leaves me with $112k ITB for upgrades down the track.

Only concern is an interrupted preseason for Rankine, how slowly do we think he'll be brought back with 5 on the bench now?

2,386 for me this week, some big score going around but very happy.

⭐: Bont, Serong, Bruhn, Jagga, Jackson, English, Sheez, Trac, Flanders, Robertson

🥔: NWM, Blakiston

Butters C hurt a bit and injuries to Gulden, Pou and Marshall sucks but it's a long season ahead!

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@Supercoach_DR All 3, naturally 💀

Thankfully it sounds like it's just a cork for the Pou, so I don't have to burn a boost *just* yet.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@TheMetalPig Got both already! As I said, the squad is off to a pretty good start!

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

I did think everything was going a little *too* well for my team this round. Oh well, still pumped out a good score and plenty of good options to go sideways to.

[Sydney Swans @sydneyswans]

Updates from the bench.

Errol Gulden (shoulder) will take no further part in the game.

Heeney (tight hamstring) will also take no further part in game out of precaution.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

Is my app glitching or did Serong just about have a 70 point 4th quarter? Holy hell!

#Supercoach

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

No idea if it'll be worth it long term value-wise, but jeez not having to lose sleep over how to get Bont in has made it worth every penny!

#Supercoach

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

I thought Langford was gonna break out this year with a few mid spots at the Dees needing to be filled, but looks like Windsor is filling that role ATM. Certainly not complaining, I'll take either!

#Supercoach

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@JezzOliver @SC_Talk Only listed as 'soreness' ATM, if he's not named round 0 I'll give him a miss but holding for now.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

My pre-practice match team, liking how it looks so far! Let me know what you think!

#SuperCoach

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@DamoSC "Hey, hyper-competitive athlete who plays like a rodeo bull, you're a bit underdone so take it easy in this game, yeah?"

What the hell did they think was gonna happen? Lmao.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@Scobey__ Perfect, thank-you!

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

Does anyone know of a resource where I can see CBA's for every game last year? AFAIK Footywire and Supercoach Gold don't track it and I can't find them anywhere.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@ItsTheRainman I'm structuring my team around the rookies available, I struggled last year due to poor cash gen. I'm ok with a bit of a sketch DEF if it means my cash gen is ahead of the curve.
Bye balance is fair, haven't put as much thought into that side of it as I'd like.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

@ItsTheRainman Got 2, Parish and Harvey Langford, think he's in for a massive year.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

- Langford will be an elite mid ala Dawson very soon. Role is there and needs to average 85 to be worth it (will do it easy).
- Frejiah I think finally plays full-time mid and is a top 5 forward by the end of season.
- Jackson R1 with no Darcy and less affected by new rules IMO.

[Ben@SCT @BenSCT1]

Justification for the less popular picks:
- Walsh is a personal pick, very undervalued at his price. First full pre-season in a while and, last time he had one of those he averaged 111.
- Young is missing due to having no trust in his body. A skip for mine. In his place:
