Bring on SuperCoach draft night The SuperFooty crew gather at Herald Sun HQ to pick their SuperCoach Draft squads. FRIDAY, Ange's house, 7.10pm. It's the biggest day on my football calendar. Fishy's talking a big game, Leary and Dave always know their stuff, while Slats and Ange's dad feign ignorance, but I know they're going to come prepared. It's SuperCoach draft night, and in a scene that will repeat itself across many a home and business in the next fortnight, things are about to get heated. It's hard to lock yourself in to choosing certain players along the way - especially when someone like Swoop will stop at nothing to pick the guy you want just to p... you off. But as Champion Data's SuperCoach expert Louie Kebakovski said, it's good to go in with some sort of plan. "And then at the end of the day it all comes down to necessity," he said. For example, the depth of scoring in defence and the forward line isn't as great as it is in the midfield. Last year there were 41 midfielders that averaged 100 or more points, whereas in defence there were six or seven. So you might have to sacrifice a midfielder and pick a Heath Shaw or Dyson Heppell in your team. Get your SuperCoach DRAFT party started You've just got to be mindful that you do need to use an early pick on a ruckman, because there's only a few that score well. If you miss the boat then you're going to end up with a fringe ruck, all the good guys will be gone. With a range of league options to choose from, you can design your league to suit you and your mates. For example, the size of the field can change. The Champion Data guys opted for a full field plus bench, but I'm not convinced that Gouldy or Azz's depth of knowledge is that great so we've gone with squads of 15. "If you want to keep it to the elite players maybe go with the smaller field," Kebakovski said. But if you don't mind picking fringe players then go for the full field.
