Alas, it's true... the byes are upon us! Thankfully, Patch, Dan Batten, and Jaymz Clements cover all the SuperCoach news and hot topics to get your team through them! 

We have EIGHT new DPP additions - are any worth a look in SuperCoach Classic? Then, the crew talk through bye round strategy ahead of round 12, including the best bye buys, trade out options, and how to best navigate the season of blue dots!

PLUS: The Phantom joins the show to talk about the lack of rookie options available to us in the first week of the byes!

*Please note: this episode was recorded before the news that Joe Richards will miss at least a month due to a foot injury. Hear The Phantom's thoughts on what to do on The Phantom's Lair later this week!
