#194: SC Playbook, Magical solution to halfback crisis

With an injury crisis for the ages at halfback, where do NRL Supercoaches move to now with limited quality No.7s to pick from?

In this week's episode of the SC Playbook podcast, 2020 NRL Supercoach runner-up Tim Williams, 2021's 91st placed finisher the SC Spy, head-to-head specialist Max Bryden and Matty the Waterboy are on deck for NRL round 11.

The crew assess the winners and losers from NRL team lists, with bad news on popular picks including Joey Manu and Trai Fuller.

Maxy also takes a deep dive into the strategy around the bye period for head-to-head rather than overall focused players, outlining how tactics change, and how dramatic the difference in approaching the schedule is.
