SuperCoach AFL: The Official Podcast

The Phantom, Dossy, and Five Names are back in the Lair to discuss all the major trades from the AFL Trade period and their SuperCoach implications for 2027.

The lads pick their top 15 players to consider in 2027 based on off-season player movement; the ramifications of players shifting clubs and the gaps they leave behind. 

Do we ‘set and forget’ Rowan Marshall and TDK as solo rucks? Is Nick Blakey the next Roos backline beast? Who takes up Zach Merrett’s role at Essendon? All these questions answered, and much more!

We have a new YouTube channel! Check it out here.
