SuperCoach Investor: The best trade targets for Round 10
AS THE great Franco Cozzo once said, it’s a ‘Grand Sale, Grand Sale, Grand Sale!’ for blue chip investments at the SuperCoach Stock Exchange. With stars available at discount prices, who should you be targeting?

Don't miss out on the headlines from Supercoach. Followed categories will be added to My News.
THE rollercoaster that is the SuperCoach Stock Exchange was in full-flight over the weekend with some stocks — Jack Macrae (177), Jake Lloyd (173) and Jack Darling (181) — significantly outperforming the market.
They are understandably the most in-demand stocks as they power a rise up the rankings for the smart investors who bought in when they presented maximum value.
SCORING SECRETS: THE REAL SWING OF SUPERCOACH YEO-YO
ROOKIE BIBLE: WHO TO TRADE, WHO TO KEEP
The byes are fast-approaching, our penny stocks are ripe for the picking and it’s time for investors to reap the spoils of their labour with some much-needed upgrade activity.
Our resident expert, Daniel Begala, casts his mind across the state-of-play of the SuperCoach marketplace and addresses all of the key conundrums facing investors.
BEGALA’S BARGAIN BASEMENT
As the great Franco Cozzo once said, it’s a “Grand Sale, Grand Sale, Grand Sale!” for blue chip investments at the SuperCoach Stock Exchange.
A number of top-tier performers are available for a fraction of their starting costs.
The pick of the bunch is Sydney’s Jake Lloyd ($512K, Break-even 6) who has collected 77 disposals across the past fortnight of football with scores of 173 and 130 the reward.
His value jumped $45K last week but will keep going up and he’s a certainty to be among the top six defenders at season’s end, so if your portfolio is lacking top-level defensive exposure, it’s time to gear up and acquire the Swans’ quarterback as a matter of urgency.
There’s also extreme arbitrage available in the midfield with headline stocks including Tom Rockliff ($375K, BE 26), Dayne Zorko ($517K, BE 70) and Patrick Dangerfield ($602K, BE 112) catching the eye of investment community.
Rockliff is back to the form of old with two strong performances (98 and 102) that have provided investors with some much-needed confidence before pulling the trigger.
He’s an extremely undervalued stock, capable of elite scoring and could be acquired at the expense of Tim Kelly ($429K, BE 120) in Round 11 with the added benefit of an expected capital gain ($30-40K).
I plan to fill my midfield quota this week with the timely acquisition of Patrick Dangerfield (at M8), but will strongly consider Rockliff at M9 for the purposes of seamlessly navigating the treachery of the byes (Rounds 12-14).
A ONE-WEEK JACK BILLINGS SOLUTION
As a holder of the once prized Billings stock, it brings extreme sadness to witness the demise of the St Kilda talent.
Touted as a must-have investment during the pre-season, he’s scraped together a month of football that has included dividends of 47, 57, 54 and, most recently, 57 points (v Collingwood).
We would not tolerate those performances from a rookie selection, let alone a player of Billings’ ability (and starting price tag).
The demise is set to continue this week with Billings facing a break-even of 87 and a date with the reigning premiers, who will be hellbent on atoning for their sins in the west.
With Port Adelaide and Gold Coast facing a bye this week, it’s essential that you leverage the likes of Robbie Gray (FWD) and Nick Holman (MID) to loophole Billings’ score on Saturday afternoon.
The SuperCoach Investor is hopeful that relegation to the bench alongside first-year rookies will inspire Billings to kick-himself and the Saints into gear.
If he fails to score in excess of 70 points, it’s time to throw caution to the wind and offer the opportunity to the likes of Charlie Spargo or Matt Guelfi who player later in the round.
