Everything from breakevens to most traded, injuries to captaincy decisions, this is your one stop article ahead of AFL Supercoach round 7

April 21, 2026
Round 6 felt like a bit of a settler week, without too much Supercoach carnage for once.
On the trades front, we have made it the crux of upgrade season, where managers scramble towards a side stacked with premiums.
As rookies start to slow down, peaking in price, managers are looking towards some firing guns this week.
The question is, do we pay up the extra money for these high-flying premiums, or do we search for the value in a more under-performing premo ready to explode?

In case you didn’t get to catch much footy in round 6, here is my rapid recap of the last week of footy:
A huge 4th quarter for Naicos (140) made for an easy loop for many managers. Houston (87) and Jagga (64) continue to underwhelm.
Jezza (160) explodes with 10 as Baz (151) and Holmes (121) just keep flying high. The Bont (66) went low again, while Bruhn (56) and Jaques (34) flopped.
Grundy (136), Blakey (128), and Oliver (128) were the standouts. Callaghan (65) struggled with a tag.
Merrett (150) went huge, while Rowell (125) continues to get into his work. Petracca (105) very solid on return.

Wilkie (121) continues to get it done, and so does Sinclair (119). NAS (70) and Rachele (68) very underwhelming.
Sheezel (141), LDU (130), and Parker (12) continue to get it done for North. Ross (149) went big for Richmond despite the loss.
Andrews (141) had a monster game despite the loss. Kozzy (108) outduels Bailey (52), both popular forward trade-ins last week.
A Clark masterclass (146) and another solid game from Jackson (125) to end the week. Murdock (85) very good on return.
AFL ROUND 6 PREVIEW
Round 7 will kick off at 7:30pm AEST, Thursday, the 23rd of April, with the Dogs hosting Sydney.
ANZAC day weekend is here, and it looks like a slate full of one-sided matchups, although the upset threat is definitely there.
The hardest game to pick for the week is probably Hawthorn vs Gold Coast down in Tassie.
From a Supercoach perspective, with the one-sided matchups, there appears to be many good games to target.

Breakevens are the score required for the player to either make money or lose money.
Price changes will occur after players have played three games, as they are based on a player’s 3-week average.
Generally speaking, when looking at who to trade in, heavily consider the players with low breakevens, as they will help make your team money.
Similarly, if you have some players with high breakevens in your team, maybe it’s time to consider cutting ties to ensure your team doesn’t lose too much value.
