CFL is on live right now, watching a bit of it, it's making me miss the NFL.

Agreed, hanging out for the season to start. Only 7 weeks till the first preseason game... Even if their preseason is rubbish!

    Had a look at gamepass to see what  the pricing was & seems as though there is only the full package available... I cant remember in previous years if the individual team packages come closer to pre season or not.. Im not to keen on paying $260 to watch Falcons games, I wouldnt get much time to watch any of the other stuff

    I  think i paid $130ish no playoffs a few years ago.

    Mate just told me he had tix to see Eagles opener and is flying over for it.

    Just read that officially the only Gamepass package avaliable this season is the full package at $260.. Previous years I have just got the Falcons games for around $130. Seems like I'll have to pay the $260 for the full package if I want to watch Falcons games. You do get all games & all playoffs but I wont watch many other games & playoffs are free on fox & 7mate so seems $260 is a rip off!

    We released Foles. 

    No suprises there really is there... Surely Goff will be the #1 when they release the first depth chart & given first crack at training camp & pre season games ?

    You would think so.  I know fisher had said Keenum is in the mix but surely Goff can hand the ball to Gurley 50 times a game...

    Hanging for the season to start. At the moment I'm soaking in all the attention the vikes are getting on NFL network as a contender. I don't think we are better then Carolina,Seattle,Arizona or Green Bay at their best. New stadium looks great and I think Atlanta are building a new shiny stadium as well.

    So Tre Mason is missing...

    His mum has now called in the police to try and find him.

    Seems the young bloke has some issues... Strange his just dropped off the radar, you'd think someone would have raised the alarm before now. 

    Dwight Freeney signed a one year deal with the Falcons, heres hoping he can improve our dreadful pass rush... Although not good to rely on a 36 year old.

    Yeah it is strange, but during the off season the clubs are not able to contact the players so easy enough from the club point of view.

    Flicked over to ESPN to have a look at the Hall of Fame game and see the games been cancelled due to field condition... Wouldn't see that too often!!

    Read on bleacher report that tee mason was seen doing training drills out the front of his mother's house. He told reporters he won't attend training camp and he has had some run ins with police in the off season.

    Gurley I'm typing to start ok.  Then to be hampered by the fact the rams still can't throw the ball. 

    Cards look the best in our div. Seashawks second. Our D just doesnt look as good in the secondary. I'm going out O line actually performs this year and we find some recievers to catch the bloody thing.

    Just realised I've left the defending champs out of the playoffs... I'll stick with it, don't think Sanchez will be all that great at QB, having said that Peyton wasn't all that good last year & Denvers defense won them the SB, not sure they can do it again this year. I'm bullish on the Raiders chances in that division, really like them on both sides of the ball & I'm a fan of Carr, hope they make the playoffs...

    I'll have a go at the division winners etc on the weekend ... the season kicks off in just over 2 weeks - that came around quickly this time probably because of the footy team still being thereabouts and getting all of our attention.

    Does anyone take any notice of the preseason games? I'm well and truly hooked on the real stuff but barely even look at the scores in the preseason games.  The games are ultra important for formations, schemes, running routes and what not but the importance of the winning & losing is probably reserved for the real stuff. 

    Anyway, we can do the tipping comp again if we have enough starters (5 or 6 or more) ... thought it best to leave it as it is (tip 3 road winners from 3 picks) but may throw an extra bonus point round in (or 2)  Bonus weeks can be the odd numbered weeks starting with week one ... 2 points max except week 17 which traditionally carries 3 points.

    Yeah 100% Melbourne been alive late in the season has taken my attention away from the NFL. 

    I enjoy the tipping so if you can find the time again Macca I'm in for sure... I like the 3 road winner system we've got going!! 

    On the preseason, I tried to watch the Falcons/Browns game last friday but I just couldn't get into it, with no real meaning it's quiet boring. I think with so many random players who aren't even going to make the 53 man roster it's hard to even watch for young players & see how they go. I'll have a quick look at the highlights but there pointless from a spectacle really. 

    Anyone else getting gamepass this year? I ended up forking out the $260!

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
