Footy is back and Round 1 has given SuperCoaches their first real look at teams, roles and rookies for the 2026 season. In this episode we break down everything we learned from the opening round and what it means for your AFL SuperCoach team moving forward.

We analyse the biggest SuperCoach takeaways from Round 0, including role changes, rookie performances, premium scoring and the players who may have become must-haves heading into the next round. With only a handful of games played, this is the perfect opportunity to identify early cash generation, value picks and potential traps before the season fully kicks off.

If you are building your team or planning early trades, this episode will help you understand which performances matter, which ones to ignore and which players are now firmly on the SuperCoach radar.

In this episode we cover:

• AFL SuperCoach Round 1 key takeaways

• Best rookie performances and cash cows

• Role changes that impact SuperCoach scoring

• Premium players who impressed (and those who didn’t)

• Early trade targets and potential traps

• Players to watch heading into Round 2

Let us know in the comments what your biggest Round 1 takeaway was and which players you are bringing into your AFL SuperCoach team.
