Another footy frenzy, another round of special rules for
KFC SuperCoach.
The AFL has released the fixture for Rounds 14-18 which will feature 17 games over 18 days and three more rounds in which at least two teams have a bye.
But SuperCoach never stops, and there are some changes to the game to get us through another challenging period in the crazy 2020 season.
The same bye rules will apply as we have already seen this year, with “best 18” scoring and an extra trade.

The schedule for finals in head-to-leagues has also been locked in.
Finals will start in Round 14 and skip a round before continuing in Round 16. This dodges the most treacherous bye round when six teams — Geelong, Gold Coast, North Melbourne, Port Adelaide, St Kilda, Western Bulldogs — all have the week off, avoiding SuperCoach elimination finals being decided purely on the number of players available — or unavailable — that week.
The three extra trades will be added to the season total.
Here’s how the rest of the season will play out in KFC SuperCoach:
R12 — normal week: best 22, max 2 trades
R13 — normal week: best 22, max 2 trades
R14 — bye round: best 18, max 3 trades + H2H finals week 1
R15 — bye round: best 18, max 3 trades + H2H week off
R16 — bye round: best 18, max 3 trades + H2H finals week 2
R17 — normal week: best 22, max 2 trades + H2H finals week 3
R18 — normal week: best 22, max 2 trades + H2H Grand Final
As with all the changes this season, we have tried to make the game as fair as possible for the largest number of players while keeping the SuperCoach we know and love.
