Keidean Coleman is a Bomber. Is he a 2027 AFL Fantasy and SuperCoach value pick, or will that discount let you down? Essendon needed a kick out of defence badly. They were one of the worst kick-in teams in the comp, then Zach Merrett and Jordan Ridley walked out the
Josh Goater Traded to Hawthorn
Josh Goater lands at Hawthorn from North Melbourne. Here’s why the Hawks wanted him and my 2027 fantasy verdict. The Hawks know something most of the AFL world hasn’t picked up yet. Their backline is ageing out fast. Barrass, Sicily, Impey and Amon all start 2027 at 31 or older,
Has Carlton got the biggest steal of the AFL Trade Period with Lachie Whitfield?
Lachie Whitfield is a Blue. Is he still a 2027 AFL Fantasy and SuperCoach premium, or a trade-in target by Round 6? Carlton just landed the elite halfback rebounder they’ve chased for years. GWS took a mid-20s pick for him. And your 2027 defence might look very different because of
Flynn Riley Becomes a Magpie
Flynn Riley lands at Collingwood. Is the rookie-priced ruck a 2027 R3 option in AFL Fantasy, SuperCoach and Keeper? Some trades change your whole draft plan. This one doesn’t, and I’ll tell you straight why. Riley is a developing ruck who’s shown a few nice moments at lower levels. He
A Former Top Pick is Traded to Melbourne
Zane Duursma joins Melbourne. Is the former top-5 pick a 2027 AFL Fantasy or SuperCoach option? Here’s my honest verdict. He’s one of the best aerial forwards of his size to come through the junior system in years. At North, though, he only showed it in glimpses. Now he crosses
Nick Blakey is Traded To North Melbourne
Nick Blakey is a Kangaroo. Here’s what his move to North means for your 2027 SuperCoach and AFL Fantasy sides. A month ago he was a trade rumour. Now he’s North Melbourne’s biggest signing in decades. One of the best metres-gained rebounders in the game lands at a club that’s
Sam Butler Becomes a Gold Coast Sun
Sam Butler heads from Hawthorn to Gold Coast. Is he draft-relevant in 2027 AFL Fantasy and SuperCoach? Here’s my verdict. Butler played just 8 games in 2026 and has never cracked 10 in a season. He wasn’t short on talent. He was fifth in line behind Nick Watson, Jack Ginnivan,
Did the Western Bulldogs just trade for a Tagger?
Finn Maginness is a Bulldog. Here’s my 2027 AFL Fantasy and SuperCoach verdict on the ex-Hawthorn tagger. Finn Maginness built his name at Hawthorn as a stopper. Between 2023 and 2025, if the Hawks needed someone shut down, he got the job. Ask any Collingwood fan about the day he
Schubert In, King Out: Did the Suns or Hawks Win?
Aidan Schubert is a Gold Coast Sun. Here’s what the trade means for the Hawks, the Suns and your 2027 SuperCoach side. Ben King walked and the Suns needed a tall. They got one. Aidan Schubert is 198cm, clean in the air and works harder up the ground than most
Hudson O’Keefe Joins the Western Bulldogs
Hudson O’Keefe is a Bulldog. Here’s what the trade means for Tim English, Carlton’s ruck stocks and your 2027 fantasy sides. Hudson O’Keefe has left Carlton for the Western Bulldogs, and the Dogs are stoked. He’s almost 210cm, he moves well for his size, and his ruck and stoppage craft
