I'm sure you can, but AA are kind of making a mockery of the whole thing....
...my J class flight from LHR-SYD nets me 480 SC at a cost of ~£2800 (not even retaining gold). Two of those trips (i mentioned above) net me 1500 SC at a cost of ~£1500. Over £1000 cheaper and I'd be a WP.
If you were to include my return flights from LHR to BOS (in Y), it'd add an additional £380 to the return - and also adding a further 50 SC into the pot.
