Six Again | NRL Supercoach Round 16, everything you need to know

The second major bye round of the season is now out of the way, and it was a tricky one.

Herbie’s 137 was a gift from the Supercoach gods for most owners who put the VC/C on him, helping most sides to a respectable score.

The Supercoach rollercoaster does not stop this week, with a minor bye round and potential mass Origin restings to contend with.

With trades running low for many sides, depth is proving as crucial as ever…

NRL ROUND 15 RAPID RECAP

In case you didn’t get to catch much footy last week, here is my rapid recap of round 15.

Going in chronological order:

An absolute domination from the Souths, with Johnston (124) and Siegwalt (109) both going big on that lethal left side. For the Broncos, Willison (84) was the standout despite the battering.

As mentioned above, Herbie (137) delivered when it mattered most, perhaps making up for missing last major bye round. Naufahu (105), Katoa (92) and Nikorima (90) all scored well, while Crichton (77) was the highest scorer for the Chooks.

A narrow win for the Sharks over the Wahs in a low-scoring affair led to some very poor Supercoach scores. McInnes (82) and Trindall (81) were the highest scorers for the Sharks, while Ford (72) led the way for the Wahs.

It was another low-scoring affair, this time between the Eels and Raiders. Iongi (97) and Timoko (92) led the scoring for their respective sides.

A high-scoring thriller between the Tigers and Titans, making up for the prior low-scoring matches. There were big scores everywhere you look; Luai (139), Seyfarth (103), Terrel (101), and Taylan (98) for the Tigers while Kini (140) and Fermor (99) went big for the Titans.

NRL ROUND 16 PREVIEW

Round 16 will kick off at 8:00pm AEST, Friday, the 19th of June, with the Knights hosting the Dragons.

As mentioned above, round 16 will be a minor bye round with the Broncos, Rabbitohs, and Eels the teams on the bye.

The Knights vs Dragons and Panthers vs Titans scream of matchups to target, despite potential Origin restings.

NRL SUPERCOACH BREAKEVENS

Breakevens are the score required for the player to either make money or lose money.

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.
