The first bye round is over and hopefully SuperCoach owners have gotten through unscathed with injuries, suspensions or just with a lack of players available in round 12.
Round 13 awaits and the second of the bye rounds will prove to be an interesting one for owners.
Owners who will look to trade this week, will be looking to trade out those who are scheduled for the bye this week, in order to bring in players who have already had the bye last round and won't miss again for the rest of the season.
Plenty of options available this week, so let's look ahead to Round 13 and see who to buy, hold and sell, as well as low breakevens and projected price rises.

HOLD
Bailey Smith ($533,700) (FWD/MID)
The Bulldogs ball-magnet was recently suspended for two weeks for a headbutt on Geelong's Zach Tuohy which is good enough reason to trade away but given his dual position status and high scoring potential, he is worth holding on the bench until his return.
Pretty much if owners have enough bench options in either their forward line or midfield then holding is a good option as it saves having to trade a premium, and Smith will be a handy premium down the stretch in finals.
Not a necessity to hold but if you have coverage then hold and reap the benefits later on in the season.
Tom Green ($489,600) (MID)
The Giants' brute midfielder enjoyed a fantastic start to 2022, averaging 124.8 points across the first month of the season, but since then he has cooled off a bit.
Green's average is down to 108.1 points per game currently and has only hit the ton once in the past month.
Green's ownership percentage has dropped by 6% in recent weeks with owners parting ways with the Giants star.

Breakeven
The 21-year old is worth holding as the bye will be a good time to rest and reset for the second half of the season.
If Green starts the second half of the season like he did the first, then he will prove to be of great value from this week onwards.
Patrick McCartin ($376,300) (DEF/FWD)
The Swans key defender has rejuvenated himself this season and has found some very good form over the past few weeks, averaging 85 points over his past three games.
McCartin found himself in the 'sell' section of the stock market and few weeks back but has proven to be a reliable option in defence.
The Swans have the bye but McCartin is worth holding if you have enough players playing this week as his dual position status gives owners more flexibility.
Still only has a breakeven of 52 so still has a bit more cash to make.
Close to 6,000 owners have parted ways with McCartin in order to bring in Jacob Wehr, but I believe Sam De Koning and Robbie McComb are better options to be downgrading from.
