Week 6 games

Tipping comp leaderboard

4 - JV7

3 - Gorgoroth, cowboy_from_ hell

1 - titan_uranus, Georgiou R.R. Martin, Macca

0 - everyone else

I'll put my tips in soon enough but I might be tempted to pick the Falcons on Friday - or is it a trap game JV7?

Should be a good game all the same - a lot of the Thursday night games are divisional games so we at least see a fierce match-up despite the players often being a bit off the boil. I can't see why the league can't match up the byes with these games.

Yeah I'm a little worried about this weeks game vs the saints. We were terrible against Washington and some how pulled out the win but our games against the saints are always hard fought, Brees in the super dome is never easy even though their record at home of late is average. I'm not so confident, have a feeling we're due for a loss but the away picks this week aren't too easy! Edited by JV7

Are you kidding me Dolphins???? Unbelievable finish, one of the best plays I’ve seen in a while.

Consolation prize for you @Gorgoroth  You're the winner of the post season tipping comp!  Well played and good tipping.  I'll post up the overall tallies sometime in the next day or so.  2nd goes

I had nigh on given up when that pass went there. My thoughts on the game, Rams did well stifling their run and run pass option, but our offence just couldn’t finish. I couldn’t believe that hit

I'm interested in the browns/Broncos game, we play the Browns next week but I think they might upset Denver. I was going to back them but this feeling of the pats and Broncos losing this week is in my head.

I think I need more sleep :)

Not one bit surprised by today's result. We got out of jail against the redskins a week earlier, we were due for a loss and the saints season was on the line. I'll pretend like it's good to get a loss out of the way haha.

Good to get the whole tipping thing outta the way early cheers Falcons. Pretty simple loss when you turn the ball over twice in the red zone.

Yeah the falcons turn overs were bad. How many dropped catches as well. It was like they had Vaseline on their hands.

Saints looked much better but I can't see them making up ground especially since they are 1-2 in their division.

Incredibly unlikely they win the division but the 2nd wildcard spot seem pretty open.

Who's looking at better than a 9 win season from (taking out the Packers and Cardinals):

NFC North - Vikings maybe

NFC East - whoever wins, plus Cowboys if they get hot late

NFC south - one of Carolina/Atlanta yes

NFC West - Seahawks capable, Rams possible

With 2 wins the Saints are now tied for the 2nd wildcard spot for wins. Going 7-3 and 9 wins isn't impossible if they start to clean up in the division. I love the wildcard system, it's going to be a good race in the AFC as well. Steelers, Chargers and Jets probably the favourites, but Bills, Browns, Raiders all in contention for a wildcard spot is fun for their fan bases.

Standout win was the Panthers winning in Seattle whilst the standout loss was Seattle losing and as a consequence now having a 2 & 4 record. The Jets are 4 & 1 and the Steelers are now 4 & 2.

Tomorrow's game is a huge game for both the Eagles & the Giants. A win or loss either way means a great deal of significance to the NFC East. Here's that final Panthers drive ...

Pretty impressive win by the panthers, that final drive from Cam shows when his fit and firing, his hard to stop! Don't think Seattle are what they used to be though. Anyone see the colts attempt at a trick play ? Quiet comical haha

Ha the colts play was hilarious. Steelers winning with a 3rd string QB against Arizona is huge. With seattle losing Arizona could've put a huge gap between them and everyone in their division. Green Bay keep on rolling and the vikes played bland but KC played even worse. The screen pass seems to be their only weapon with Charles out for the year.

I was looking at Seattle as they should win, but a div game can throw up surprises and Seattle haven't been great.

I'm torn on who I want to win, I think the niners as I think Seattle will win more games over the year.

Highly doubt the Rams will win more than Seattle and cards but I gotta hope.

I'm staying away from the Bills in a London game with a chance their QB isn't right.

Sea Hawks

Falcons

Vikings

Didn't know that... Hmmm do I change...

Nah stuff it, I'll stay the course. Go Bills!!!

I'm home today so I'll get to watch the game live, really hoping for a close game.

Wow, the niners look very very poor, very poor. At one stage Seattle had 6 first downs to niners 5 total yards.

Other than Hyde, the niners offence isn't even there.

The 49ers look a shadow of their former selves .. their offense just doesn't work at all.

Seattle on the other hand could get on a roll ... next up @ Dallas (minus Romo and probably Bryant) then their bye week followed by 3 games in a row at home (Arizona, San Francisco, Pittsburgh)

That division is far from decided with Arizona coming back to the field a bit ... the Rams have a chance to gain ground too - next 4 ... vs Cleveland, vs 49ers, @ Minnesota and then vs Chicago.

Cleveland we must win, niners we must win, vikes will be hard, Chicago I'm not sure about.

We need to win three of the next four if we are to have a small chance of getting a wildcard.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
