We're heading into the last of the early bye rounds in round 6, where BEST 18 will be here to save us for one final week (until the byes kick in again in round 12). 
There is an abundance of juicy cash cows on the bubble or soon-to-be on the bubble to help you get to the top level premiums as we begin to enter 'upgrade season'!
Now is the time to grab the Swans or Pies you've always wanted returning from the bye or perhaps bid farewell to a Demon or Tiger as they pick up the blue dot this week. 
Al Paton, Patch, and Jaymz discuss all the SuperCoach hot topics ahead of another MASSIVE week of trading!

PLUS: Dan Batten also joins to discuss his top rookie options for the week!

The Phantom, Hipster, Mr SuperCoach and Dos (Phantom Jr) enter the Lair to discuss all the hottest SuperCoach topics ahead of round 8!
Jack Steele's knee strapping is cause for concern following two subpar performances, but do we hold ahead of two easy matchups? If you're happy with your ruck setup, is putting Jordon Sweet on the bench a viable option? What about Bailey Dale?! 
The crew covers all this and much more (including a Ross Lyon spray directed at The Hipster) - on a jam packed episode of The Phantom's Lair!

Finding the SWEET spot, bargain hunting for premiums, and upgrade season strategies! | SuperCoach AFL

Harley Reid will miss West Coast's game against the Gold Coast SUNS, having a rest after his monumental 147 SuperCoach point performance in the Western Derby. He's a clear hold, but there are plenty of trades to make as we re-enter the BEST 22 landscape!
The Phantom, Hipster, and Dos break down all the hottest topics ahead of round 7, including the Dawson v Walsh debate, Jack Macrae's big return, new DPPs, the subbing of Zac Williams and Massimo D'Ambrosio, and which rookies to trade.
PLUS: The Hipster brings the fire to his 'Shooting from the Hip' segment to bring to light a few incredibly juicy PODs (Points of Difference) for your consideration, including a surprisingly under-the-radar Unicorn...

NEW DPPs, Sam Walsh season, and Jordan Dawson bounces back! | SuperCoach AFL

DPPs are just around the corner and the temptation to BOOST has never been stronger as we charge towards round 6!
The Phantom is joined by The Eradicator, Dos, and the returning fan-favourite Hipster to chat about all the burning questions for a massive week of trading ahead.
Do we have to trade out Jordan Dawson? Will the Dogs defend Bevo and come out firing? Will Sam Clohesy break a record formerly held by his old mentor? Will Hipster come back on the podcast if he drops in rank this week?
The lads will address all these questions and much more in The Phantom's Lair this week!
