Super Coach 2012

[The Mole]

Seeing the prospectus is out soon  im wondering how many hidden gems are out there and who are your locks for 2012   Kruezer will def be a lock for me along with ablett  the porp could be a great bargain but looks like gibbs will only be a mid next season so backs will be hard to choose,dusty will also be a lock for me, matty dea could be a bargain if he plays as many games as dimma thinks, redden is also very consistant performer...............................  bring on sc 2012  cant wait

[mightytiges]

The top GWS kids in the midfield like Coniglio and Tyson will be given plenty of games in their debut year and should come cheap in Supercoach.

For us - Ellis if he plays across half-back in a sweeper/rebounding role should find plenty of the footy. Conca with a full preseason for the first time  should play more gametime and games next year barring injury.

[The Mole]

i think conca will be listed as a back  so  he would be a very shrewd choice in my opinion

[one-eyed]

The fantasy footy guy on SEN said Conca and Morris would be his choices for Supercoach from Richmond as both will play most of the season in 2012.

SuperCoach 2012 rules revealed

    by: Al Paton
    From: Herald Sun
    December 16, 2011

SUPERCOACH will be bigger and better than ever in 2012 with a series of new rules to deal with an 18-team competition.

SuperCoaches will have more flexibility than ever to manage their team with reversible trades for the first time, and the ability to trade for players in other positions.

Squads will return to 30 players after a year of expansion to cope with the weekly bye. But coaches will retain the 24 trades they had last season at a maximum of two per week - with one exception. More on that below.

As the AFL expands to 18 teams with the introduction of Greater Western Sydney, SuperCoach private leagues will also feature 18 teams allowing you to take on more mates and win bigger bragging rights.

Private league matches will start in Round 3, allowing two weeks to get your team settled before the real battle begins.

League matches will run from Round 3-19 without a break, with the finals over the last four weeks of the home-and-away season.

That means leagues will continue playing during the AFL bye rounds 11-13, presenting a challenge for coaches with six teams having a rest in each of those weeks.

To help, coaches can make a maximum of three trades during each of these rounds.

In 2012 coaches will also be able be able to hit the "undo" button and reverse trades right up to lockout.

This "Heath Shaw rule" will save coaches from situations like last year's suspension of the Collingwood defender, which occurred on Friday afternoon and caught out thousands of coaches who had traded him in the night before.

Hitting the undo button will reset your squad to its status at the last lockout.

Another innovation will be a big help for coaches especially during the bye rounds.

Coaches will be able to complete two trades at a time - three during the bye rounds. This will come into its own with the use of dual-position players.

Many coaches jumped on board dual-position players (DPP) last season - that is, players who can be selected in more than one position and can be moved on the field during the week.

Next season the new trade screen will allow coaches to trade players for someone in a different position - providing you have a DPP player to cover them.

For example, if you want to trade out midfielder Scott Pendlebury (for some reason) until now you only had the option of swapping him for another midfielder.

Next year you can trade out Pendlebury from your midfield, switch a DPP player who can play in the midfield (say, def/mid Bryce Gibbs) into the middle, and trade in a defender - effectively swapping a midfielder for a defender.

This presents a whole new set of possibilities and opportunities for smart coaches.

From FootyTragic DreamTeam/SuperCoach twitter:

"Dustin Martin will be a FWD/MID in #supercoach and #dreamteam in 2012! So who will be locking him in from round 1?"

"Dustin Martin averaged 89 DT points & 98 SC points in 2012. His top scores were 141 DT & 168 SC. Can he take his game 2 a new level in 2012?"

[Dubstep Dookie]

Not bad Moley. A few questions though.

What's the logic behind Talia and Kruezer?

Zaharakis seems over priced, not alot of value or upside the me thinks.

Also i think the porpoise is high risk. Might gain a bit of value, but is always injured.

[The Mole]

kruezer is will be spending more time up forward hence i expect him to score some good points with zhak, the stories i have been following is he will really go up a notch next year so will prolly make a few bucks for me i cant see swan or judd improving much but if zhak gets me some coin i can upgrade if swan or juddy de value
