It's nearing the halfway point of the SuperCoach season and the bye rounds are just around the corner, so that needs to be factored in when trading this week, as owners' 'boost' option will come in handy during the bye rounds to use those extra trades.
Owners' trades are now dwindling down fast so it is important that trades are not wasted, and with a few injuries and health and safety protocols to popular premiums causing carnage for teams in recent weeks, it is important as ever that owners have bench cover.
With that being said, it's time to look ahead to next week and see who to buy, hold and sell as Round 11 nears.

Jack Carroll ($183,000) (MID)
The young Carlton midfielder started his career well in Round 7 with 95 SuperCoach points but has had a couple of quiet games in the past two rounds, landing him with a breakeven of 42 and a projected price rise of $5.8k so his price won't fluctuate too much this round.

Breakeven
Currently averaging 55 SuperCoach points across his first four games, to go with 14.5 disposals per game, Carroll remains a nice bench option who is capable of scoring well as seen in his debut game with one goal, 19 disposals and eight marks.
Hold onto him for some more cash production on your bench as the bye rounds approach.
Sam Hayes ($304,400) (RUC)
The popular ruck selection continues to be a reliable backup option for owners if one ruck is a late out and that proved to be the case on the weekend when popular ruck Braydon Preuss went out due to protocols, with Hayes scoring a decent 72.

Breakeven
Similar to Carroll, Hayes' breakeven is 52 with a projected price rise of $9.7k so his price won't fluctuate too much, but he's averaging 74.5 SuperCoach points on the season and he'll do you no trouble by having bench cover in the rucks departments.
Hold onto Hayes to have an extra player playing during the bye rounds.
Hugh Dixon ($246,200) (FWD/RUC)
The Eagles utility hasn't set the world on fire, but he is still getting consistent games due to the weak Eagles squad at the moment, and with the bye rounds approaching, it is handy to have as many players playing as possible.
Currently averaging 57 SuperCoach points per game, and has a breakeven of 41 and a projected price rise of $8k.

It's not the most flashy scoring average, but he remains a nice bench option who will play most weeks.
Hold onto until after the bye rounds.
