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

Wow.

Start getting seriously excited Dappa & Gorg

As well as Clinto's Jags. 

As for the Packers & Falcons,  we won't be seeing a repeat of last year's NFC Championship match-up (unless a minor miracle occurs)

But as you said JV,  the Rams & Eagles are the standouts in the NFC ... the Saints & Vikes are both 6 & 2 as well and will take some pegging back.  The Panthers,  Seattle & Dallas are thereabouts but that loss by the Seahawks today could be costly.

I already was. you'll need to work on Gorg tho.

Actually... for all the fun Eagles fans are having right now... Check this out. Eagles are 8-1, Cowboys 5-3... Next week Eagles have the bye, while Cowboys should take care of Falcons. Then Eagles and 'boys play each other in Dallas. If they win that, Dallas will be 7-3 and Eagles 8-2... With Dallas holding the tiebreaker with superior division record. Basically a half game back. And that's all very plausible. They just beat KC... a feat the Eagles couldn't manage.

Crazy.

Yeah the Saints have surprised me a bit, you know with Brees that the offense will always be good enough but their D has been a lot better than expected and they'd now have to be favorites for the NFC South... Each and every week the Rams offense flourishes under Lafluer a bit of me gets angrier & angrier as to why we didn't appoint him our OC! 

Yeah seems those sides you mentioned are the ones to beat in the NFC. Yeah a  crucial lost at home by Seattle, I really don't rate them at all TBH

Wow. I'm still pretty scared of Seattle. For them to put together that many wins with basically no run game.

Cowboys are right back in it, even without Zeke. Rams are amazing. Vikings, if Bradford can come back and get good again... can beat anyone.

Seattle's next 4 will paint a clearer picture ... @ Arizona,  vs Atlanta,  @ 49ers and then vs the Eagles.  If they win 3 of those 4 they'll be sitting on a record of 8 & 4. 

Washington aren't a bad team either but they'll probably need to get to 10 wins just to have a chance at a wild-card.  At this stage I can see the 2 wild-cards coming out of the South,  East & West ... probably not the North unless Detroit get their act together. 

10 wins normally gets a spot but not always ... the Pats went 11 & 5 once and missed out completely.  It's happened a few times like that I believe.

Haven't really looked at the AFC closely but it's probably the same sort of story.

Bloody happy with my Rams, but keeping a lid on it as we have a big few games coming up and the Seahawks just keep themselves in games with their D and Wilson is too good to keep quiet all game and as you constantly see, when their O fires they are usually within 10 points due to their D.

Eagles are just simply the team of the NFC.

An example of what I'm talking about is the Eagles going after a RB in Ajayi ... they are obviously trying to get stronger in other areas apart from QB,  WR & defence. 

A really smart move by Philadelphia - the payoff could be huge.

A number of us have got some catching up to do but we're running out of weeks - however, there is a total of 13 points still available.

Surprised a lot of Philly people. Left tackle was what many of us wanted, to replace Peters. And Brown went to Seattle. Also thought we'd get middle Linebacker help as we're desperately thin there now. Ajayi though count for 1.5 mil over the next two seasons as he's on his rookie contract. So that's a pittance. He may only get a few years before his knees give out, but only a 4th rounder... It's massive, as you say.

Watching on the weekend, his pace and ability to cut has him ahead of Blount as a player. And he's better at pass catching and most importantly, blocking, too.

NFC North just got real.

Just quietly Gorg... Second week running with Eagles at 1 and Rams at 2 on the power rankings.

I don't have much money, but putting it on Rams and Eagles for NFC Championship game would probably pay well. Still a lot of people out there yet to discover the Wentz/Goff show. We are totally spoiled.

Going the soft options & finally getting on board for a Thursday game

Seattle

New England

Pittsburgh

was tempted to continue picking against my '49ers but the Giants ? That game is a Taliban beauty contest. Very hard to see a winner.

Yeah, I'm not betting for the same reason. I was actually thinking of putting money on the cowboys. Whatever way the NFC East works out. I win.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
