    Here's last year's final tally in the tipping comp ...

    Final Leaderboard (2016/17)

    12 - Gorgoroth

    8 - cowboy_from_hell

    7 - Clintosaurus,  DeeSpencer

    --------------------------------

    6 - JV7

    4 - Macca

    Gorgoroth set the high score last season although it was the first year where we had the current amount of bonus weeks.

    Clintosaurus leads the current comp with 12 points (see above) so we'll probably see a new record score set.  A total of 6 points are still up for grabs

    Well done mate. Chose the one I hoped for. See you again in playoffs.

    You need to maintain the 1 seed to have a chance ... that has to happen.  Your likely opponents in week 2 and/or 3 could be 2 dome teams (Saints/Vikes) or a Rams team that hasn't been in the playoffs for yonks. 

     

    I wouldn't want to face the Rams again. No way. Saints probably next most feared, followed by the Vikes...

    If Packers did somehow get in, I would put them just after the Rams in the most scary category.

    It's gonna be an intriguing time. I think in some ways the pressure is sort of off. At least as fans. Many have given up the idea that they seriously can threaten. I've spoken to some who thought they were so far ahead they couldn't miss a superbowl... and now they're just back in the pack. Most are just hoping, but resigned to a manful defeat.

    3 actually. Keep your eye on Clement. He's a beauty.

    Yeah, I'm not saying they're out of it yet... I think it's less of a comment on the Eagles, more of a comment on what I'm seeing from opposition. Vikings D, Saints D... wowee... I don't think Eagles can say they're better than those guys. Also the whole "Eagles haven't played anyone" thing is true... they've had maybe 4 good teams. Just barely squeaked through... I reckon Rams fans will be licking their lips if they face Eagles in week 2 of playoffs.

    We need to fix our secondary. We give up way too many third and long plays.

    Anyone on here in the Armchair Endzone comp run through BigFooty? If not you should - costs $40 per season and there is 6 comps.

    What are they? Tipping?

    Yeah, most of them are based around weighted tips each week. If there is 16 games in a week then each game gets points from 16 (most confident) to 1 (least confident)

    The different competitions are explained here:

    That's interesting... I'd be more inclined to propose a basic PPR fantasy league here... you know.. the one I keep banging on about. Also, just keeping up with you is hard enough to concentrate on lol

    I find it cosier to do it in a cultured forum like demonland. Bigfooty really is the lowest common denominator.

    Preliminary picks for this week: Broncos, Eagles, Falcons. Reckon Baltimore may slip up against the Browns.

    Obviously can't change my Broncos pick and will stick with the others.

    We don't allow 'preliminary' tips Clint ... no such thing.

    Lions game was horrible. Horrible.

     

    Chiefs game was decent, thought they held Bosa from causing Smith too much grief.

    Nervous as hell today. If all goes well at work ill be home to start the redzone at 2pm but I reckon I'll be working back again. So will fidget through the early games then nervously pace through our game. 

    Go Rams!

    • 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.
