The Phantom, Chief, and Daddsy return to discuss all things FORWARDS in SuperCoach AFL 2026.

There appears to be an obvious number one man in our forward line, but who makes up the rest? Can we go value-heavy, or is it worth paying up for some fire power up forward?

The Phantom makes a huge call on a bargain basement pick, Daddsy picks his favourite surprise POD, and the Chief annoints a brand new GOAT.

Plus, The Phantom's top six forwards, must-have rookies, and Dossy's draft advice!

The Phantom, Chief, and Five Names reunite to discuss all things MIDFIELDERS in SuperCoach. 

The Phantom, Chief, and Five Names reunite to discuss all things MIDFIELDERS in SuperCoach.

It's the regular suspects of Bont, Butters and Daicos that are hot on SuperCoaches radars this pre-season... but not in that order! Is paying up the big bucks for Bont worth it?

A plethora of juicy mid-price options are also hard to ignore, but how many can we fit into our squads and are they worth the risk?

Plus, The Phantom's top eight midfielders, Unique Names with Five Names, and the must-have midfield rookies!
