We analyse premium hookers, mid-range options, and value plays to help shape early team structure.</p><p><br></p><p>Hooker is one of the most important positions to get right in SuperCoach, and one of the hardest to predict. We discuss minutes, role changes, price points, and bounce-back candidates, including whether the top-end hookers are worth paying for or if there’s value to be found elsewhere.</p><p><br></p><p>This episode is part of The Seven Tackle Set, the NRL SuperCoach podcast from SuperCoach Insight, formerly Insight Fantasy Sports.</p><p><br></p><p>Check out the other shows from the pre-season: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1cFHlQFzCbxZL8bSACsca6S5ty-6Y11A&amp;si=BT0gM1j82wbB2xbO</p><p><br></p><p>Hosts</p><p><br></p><p>SC Brain</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braintalksball/</p><p>Twitter: https://x.com/BrainTalksBall</p><p><br></p><p>SC Whisperer</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scwhisperer/</p><p>Twitter: https://x.com/SCWhisperer</p><p><br></p><p>SC Mattrix</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sc_mattrix/</p><p>Twitter: https://x.com/SC_Mattrix</p><p><br></p><p>Seven Tackle Set</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seventacklesetnrl/</p><p>Twitter: https://x.com/7TackleSetNRL</p><p><br></p><p>Patreon</p><p>If you want the full experience and actual weekly edges, our Patreon is where everything lives.</p><p>Exclusive podcasts and articles, weekly team reveals and trades, subscriber Q&amp;A, consensus position rankings, premium Discord access, and direct 1-1 access to the hosts.</p><p><br></p><p>Join here: https://www.patreon.com/12428569/join</p><p><br></p><p>Chapters</p><p>00:00 Hookers in NRL SuperCoach: dead position or hidden edge?</p><p>02:58 We found 8 relevant hookers (yes… we juiced the lemon dry)</p><p>03:10 Blake Brailey deep dive: 53 early, 77 late… what’s the real average?</p><p>06:06 Harry Grant at a “discount”: bounce back season or Origin trap?</p><p>08:55 Connor Watson: last year’s hero, this year’s headache with Robson in town</p><p>10:43 Reese Robson to the Roosters: minutes risk vs “Origin hooker” upside</p><p>14:03 Jake Simkin POD watch: 422k, attacking hooker, sneaky 10-point value?</p><p>17:27 Reece Walsh’s new hooker: Reed Mahoney 30% owned… are we overrating him?</p><p>22:25 Phoenix Crossland: ONLY if he’s lock (13) not hooker (9)</p><p>25:18 Bailey Hayward punt: cheap hooker play or 20-point nightmare?</p><p>30:05 Rapid fire: safest, ceiling, best mid-pricer, best cash gen, fade fears</p><p>34:42 Final hooker verdicts + league code, Patreon/Discord plug</p><p>35:26 What’s next: “My Guy” episode (the annual froth fest)</p>","author_name":"Insight Podcast Network"}
