    I know it's not that fantasy game of choice for this community but deserves it's own thread. 

    Who is playing?

    I don't play Supercoach but would be nice to see the thread get the activity it did a few years ago.

    I will play supercoach this year, although fantasy will get a higher priority.

    With all the new format of the NRL.com fantasy the last couple of years, I've tended to focus more on SC.

    I'm more hoping the betting websites run comps again this year though.

    We should start a league. I have been known to lie about how well my team is doing in the past.

    WINNERS

    Sam Burgess

    Price: $423,700

    Position(s): Back row, front row

    The English international ended his last season of NRL SuperCoach as the best player in the comp. It may therefore be expected that he start as the most expensive player in 2016. However, following a year out in rugby union, he starts as the ninth most expensive player. The following players all cost more: Semi Radradra ($512,900), Paul Gallen ($499,500), Roger Tuivasa Sheck ($489,500), Johnathan Thurston ($486,900), Corey Parker ($481,800), James Tedesco ($469,500), Andrew Fifita ($464,000) and Shaun Johnson ($445,800).


    Tohu Harris

    Price: $383,600

    Position(s): Back row, centre/wing

    The Melbourne back rower is set to be the most popular centre/wing in SuperCoach after scoring dual position status.

    Tohu Harris will be a popular buy after securing dual position status.


    Ben Henry

    Price: $133,300

    Position(s): Back row, centre/wing

    Starts at a cheapie price following a horror season that saw him notch an average of just 19.5, before rupturing his ACL for the second time. However, the NZRL’s Rookie of the Year for 2012 has been a $250,000 player in the past. Recent injuries are a massive issue, but surely the only way is up.


    Ashley Taylor

    Price: $133,300

    Position(s): Halfback, five-eighth

    The Titans recruit has avoided a price penalty, despite an injury-induced 12 on debut for the Broncos. He therefore starts at a cheapie price and is set to emerge as the most popular player in SuperCoach following a season-ending injury to Kane Elgey, which all but guarantees Taylor a halves spot for round one.


    Jackson Hastings

    Price: $133,300

    Position(s): Halfback, five-eighth

    The boom youngster is the only player who could rival Ashley Taylor as the most popular player in the game. Hastings will take over from James Maloney as Roosters five-eighth — where he averaged 41 in five games last year when filling in for Mitchell Pearce. However, Hastings starts at bottom dollar due to a season average of just 18.57 — down due to stints as bench hooker.


    Josh Mansour

    Price: $338,800

    Position(s): Centre/wing

    The former Kangaroo starts at just $338,000 following an injury-ravaged season — a bargain given he was the best centre/wing in SuperCoach 2014. Mansour is the only winger who can go close to Roger Tuivasa-Sheck in base stats.


    Michael Gordon

    Price: $285,900

    Position(s): Fullback, centre/wing

    Gordon’s price is based on an interrupted season in which he switched between wing, fullback and bench at the Sharks for an average of 45. Now at the Eels, he is set to play solely in his favoured No. 1 jersey, where he has been a SuperCoach keeper in the past. He averaged 57 in each of the two preceding seasons.


    LOSERS

    Semi Radradra

    Price: $512,900

    Position(s): Centre/wing

    The Fijian flyer is the most expensive player in SuperCoach due to finishing 2015 with the highest average. He is therefore a big no-no for round one. That said, the Eels possess the best draw in the comp for the byes, making Radradra essential over the Origin period — hopefully after a price drop.


    Roger Tuivasa-Sheck

    Price: $489,500

    Position(s): Fullback

    The man who scored the most points in SuperCoach 2015 has been stripped of dual position status and is only available at fullback. With James Tedesco and Greg Inglis also only at No. 1, SuperCoaches have some serious decisions to make in what is the most stacked position in the game.

    Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is no longer a dual position player. He is only available at fullback for 2016.


    Cameron Munster

    Price: $391,300

    Position(s): Centre/wing, fullback

    Tuivasa-Sheck’s fullback switch means Cameron Munster starts 2016 with the second-highest price of any centre/wing (behind only Radradra). However, with Billy Slater fit and firing, Munster is expected to move to centre, which will dramatically reduce his involvement.


    Anthony Milford

    Price: $408,900

    Position(s): Five-eighth

    The Brisbane playmaker was a revelation at the back end of last year, averaging 80 in the last five weeks and 75 from round eight onwards. However, he will be slightly less adaptable this year after relinquishing dual position status (only available at five-eighth).


    Sia Soliola

    Position(s): Back row

    Price: $367,700

    The Canberra hit-man was the most popular centre/wing in SuperCoach for most of last year as he banged out 80 minutes in the back row. However, he is not an option for 2016 because he starts expensive following a strong year and is no longer dual position.


    Shaun Johnson

    Price: $445,800

    Position(s): Halfback

    The second best playmaker in SuperCoach last year (behind only the mercurial Johnathan Thurston), has been stripped of five-eighth status and is only available at halfback. May start slowly following a serious ankle injury. Avoid first up.

    Never played SC before but will give it a go. What are the main tips when looking for players as opposed to fantasy?

    much higher scoring in SC mate, players who rely on tries so guys like Semi are much more valued in SC over NRL fantasy, Milford as an example was one of the highest scoring halves in SC whilst in NRL fantasy he is well below the elite tier

    What really amazes me, is you managed to do that in the Ultimate League draft and there were only 8 guys in that.
