What is Lachlan Ash's SuperCoach breakeven?

Lachlan Ash's breakeven is 75. The current average of 99 sits 24 points above breakeven, so the price is rising.

Should I trade Lachlan Ash in SuperCoach 2026?

The answer depends on your team — your cash, your byes, and what the upgrade target looks like. The dedicated Should I Trade Lachlan Ash breakdown weighs form, breakeven, and a comparable replacement side-by-side.

Is Lachlan Ash worth trading in at his current price given his high BE and role uncertainty at GWS?

Hold off — role uncertainty caps ceiling. Ash flips between rebounder and midfielder depending on GWS injury list. Whitfield taking kick-ins kills his disposal and tackle numbers, locking his ceiling near 100 rather than 108 as a settled defender. Role risk at his BE is hard to justify.

ROOKIEBIBLEVerdict

▲ BUY

Ash delivered 99 in the same 17-point road loss to West Coast — comfortably above his 75 BE and a genuine performance in a losing GWS side at Perth Stadium. His midfield role (61% CBA earlier in the year) has not killed his output; two straight above-BE games confirms that. Cash gen is negative at -$2,864/wk meaning the price is sliding, which actually creates a buying window at $511k for a DEF averaging 99. Bring him in — the sell side has not materialised and the form is consistent.
