Between The Arcs | AFL SuperCoach Podcast

The AFL SuperCoach Panic Room is here to help you make the right calls before the R7 lockout.

This show is all about last-minute AFL SuperCoach strategy. As soon as teams are named we break down the biggest SuperCoach implications so you know exactly what to do with your side before the round begins.

We focus on the players named in the teams, potential role changes, and which players could become must-have SuperCoach options based on their position, opportunity and scoring potential. If a rookie gets named, a premium shifts roles, or a mid-price player suddenly becomes relevant, we’ll cover it in the Panic Room.

Each episode will analyse:

• AFL SuperCoach team announcements
• Key players named and omitted
• Role changes that impact SuperCoach scoring
• Rookie selections and cash generation options
• Late SuperCoach strategy before lockout
• Trade decisions and last-minute team structure adjustments

If you want an edge in AFL SuperCoach 2026, this is the show that helps you react quickly to team news and make smarter strategic decisions before the round starts.
