#273: NRL Supercoach 2026, points explosion changes Supercoach trade landscape

The NRL Supercoach 2026 season has started with an explosion of points, with new rules and stats forcing a complete re-think of our early season trade strategy.

Former NRL Supercoach runner-up Tim Williams is joined by the SC Spy and former overall champion Dez Creek ahead of NRL Supercoach Round 3.

The boys recap the the NRL Round 3 team lists, with mixed news for a pair of popular Melbourne Storm cheapies.

They then discuss the trade strategy shift from early cash generation to points focus, before looking at the most traded in players headlined by Sua Fa'alogo and Latrell Mitchell, then reveal their trade and captaincy plans for Round 3.
