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

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

Decided to make Monday's games a little more interesting. Took the Panthers to win by 13+

Eagles to win 7-12 

Jacksonville 13+

And a 4 leg multi with eagles, pats, jags and niners to win. 

 

Can't believe the Jags & Panthers are such outsiders, both serious value in the H2H betting

It's nearly always a curious week (week 17) ... the teams in contention that have to win, usually win, and those teams that don't have to win, don't usually win.

Teams that have secured a playoff berth and can't move from that spot often rest their starters and other teams that are completely out of it only have pride & future contracts on the line. 

It's reflected in the betting markets.  The lines & head-to-head odds are a lot different to what we normally see - it's actually a good betting week if you can get your head around what is going on.

It wouldn't surprise to see the Bills,  49ers,  Titans,  Denver & Dallas all win ... all 5 of those teams are favoured to win where as ordinarily they'd nearly all be underdogs.  And every season in week 17 it's a similar story.

It's hard to see any of the Ravens,  Chargers,  Vikes,  Pats,  Steelers,  Seahawks & Saints losing either.

I went Philly for a few reasons, Foles needs more time with their O and they have tge bye and they hate the cowboys so still want to win.

Niners cos they cant lose against what the Rams will field.

Jags should beat titans. Not sure if they are resting players?

Pats should roll the jets and can lose top seed.

Panthers can still get second seed if all goes their way. 13+ is a massive ask but thats why the odds are so good.

Marrone has said Jags starters will be playing until the result is beyond doubt. Whatever that means. 

I gather it means that as long as there is a chance to improve their position they will keep their starters on the field. I hope that is after they are 23 points up! ?

Locked in at #3 but can kill off the Titans and not play them again next week.

On the pi$$ & will be ready for 8:25am tomorrow on 7mate... Not confident at all but will be treating it like a playoff game :lol:

I'm hoping you win for your sake JV.  You never know,  the team might click into gear if they get into the playoffs.

The Panthers deep-down must know that the Saints & Vikes are not going to slip up and that realisation may be apparent by half time of your game. 

I do like the scheduling though ... the games that matter being played at the same time.

Yeah they are not playing well at all.

I'm just cheering on the Bills! Hope they make it!

That TD helps. How good was Kyle Williams getting a rushing TD for the Bills?

Just imagine being a Ravens fan at the game - gut wrenching. 

Well done to the Bills though ... 17 long seasons without playoffs and they finally make it!

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
