About this episode

The episode discusses NRL Supercoach bye-planning, player analysis, and trade strategies for Round 8.

NRL Supercoach bye-planning is vital to success, and despite being arguably the best player in the game on form, all the data leads to ignoring Latrell Mitchell this week and selling the South Sydney Rabbitohs star within the month. Former NRL Supercoach runner-up Tim Williams is joined by the SC Spy, former overall champion Dez Creek and Matty the Waterboy ahead of NRL Supercoach Round 8. The crew recap the NRL Round 8 team lists, with early season cheapie sensation Ryan Couchman returning from suspension in a new-look role for the St. George Illawarra Dragons. They then rip into the all-important NRL Supercoach bye-planning, looking at the players and teams to avoid moving forward, then reveal their trade and captaincy plans for Round 8. 00:00 A round of mayhem 11:10 Team list Tuesday: Haas, Kiraz, Turbo headline injury drama 25:50 NRL Supercoach bye-planning: Teams to target and avoid 01:01:50 Hot topics: Avoiding red-hot Jackson Ford 01:10:40 Trades and skippers: Straight C Tedesco or get tricky?
