Question
Check the chip-value tool using the full model for GW9 only. Can it calculate the expected points gain from playing my Wildcard?
Answer
completed trace 9dc9042bNo — for GW9 the full-model chip-value tool returns no Wildcard figure.
Snapshot: 28 October 2026 (2026-27 season), target GW9. The estimates it does return are:
| Chip | Estimated extra points, GW9 |
|---|---|
| Triple Captain | 5.9 |
| Bench Boost | 5.2 |
| Free Hit | 7.9 |
best_gws lists GW9 for Triple Captain, Bench Boost and Free Hit. The Wildcard is listed as available (until GW19), but it has no value in the output — the tool's assumptions note that it uses the current frozen squad in every GW and that no future transfers are planned, which is why squad-rebuilding chips like the Wildcard can't be valued here.
So the Wildcard's expected gain is not calculated by this tool. For a Wildcard verdict you'd need the recommendation tool, which assesses chip timing with transfer plans — note that its Wildcard assessment is separate from these gains, and it may report the Wildcard as unassessed. Want me to run that for GW9?
