    Alright its been a couple of years for me of not competing in this at least!
    Heres my crack at week 1:

    Jags, Titans, Rams

    Week 1 has to be a bit of a crapshoot doesnt it? NFL preseason games are so mickey mouse they make the NAB Cup look like the Olympics!

    AFC:

    East: Patriots

    North: Steelers

    South: Texans

    West: Chargers

    Wild Cards: Chiefs and Jaguars

    NFC:

    East: Giants

    North: Vikings

    South: Saints

    West: Rams

    Wild Cards: Seahawks and Packers

     

    Man, AFC was way easier than NFC. Steelers and Pats to go all the way to championship game. Found it tough to pick Texans and Chargers to win their divisions, but Chiefs and Jags will only just get pipped and will play Wild Card games.

    NFC is amazing this year. How one earth did I not pick Falcons, Panthers and Eagles? Have to pick Vikings (Best D in the NFC IMO), Saints were great last year and deserved to go further. Rams are the breakout superstars of the comp... EVERYONE is picking Eagles, but at least early on they are lacking pretty much everywhere on offense. The season will get away from them early and they'll be playing catch up all year. Giants will be the shock winner of a meh NFC East. Wilson and Rodgers will see their teams through messy rosters. Eagles couldn't beat Seahawks last year. Wilson will win league MVP.

    8 participants so far with a few to come ... I might put all the tips together in one post so people can compare tips whilst also making it easier for me to tally them all up on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

    You won't see your avatar name on the leaderboard until you get off the mark although those on zero points will be lumped together as 'The Usual Suspects' or suchlike

    Anyway,  thanks for the response and good luck to all.

    I'll try to join this year - I regularly miss a week or two early and then fall behind/drop out, but I'll try to keep up this time!

    Titans, Steelers, Rams

    Guess the Lines Week 1 With Cousin Sal | The Bill Simmons Podcast

    Super-Friday coming up with the Falcons @ Eagles as an ideal lead in to the Demons finals match against the Cats.  NFL & Demons for at least one week and if we prevail we'll do it all again Friday week with another NFL/Demons double. 

    Anyway,  Atlanta has been touted as a team that can contend whilst Foles could well start off where he left off and win again.  I fancy the Eagles but it could be close.  Really good pipe-opener,  all the same. 

    11 in the comp with maybe 1 or 2 more to come.  Could get real interesting with a full crew going at it.  Hope all your teams win and most importantly,  go the mighty Demons!

    Cameron Johnston first 2 punts: 65 yards and 56 yards. 60.5 average. Not a bad start.

    Hardly a classic, but I'll take it. Soft 3 weeks now then the scary stuff starts.

    Just got to the end of the game ... average/ordinary affair to be honest - a fizzer.

    Ryan seemed out of it in terms of a winning throw  at the death - 'rust' all round with 1 team coming out on top.  Not sure we learned a lot Dappa,  if anything.

    Yup,. Came away from it at first relieved for the win, and impressed by the D.... but on reflection (especially after an unforgettable final tonight) it really was a bad team beating up on a worse team. Lots of work to do.

    So often happens - hype exceeds the actuality.  Both teams looked out of sorts although the Philly special was a highlight.

    Season proper will deliver though - it always does.  When a whole bunch of games played at the same time happens,  the drama eventuates.

    I can't wait to watch the remaining week 1 games. Some teams I wanna get around like Rams, Pack etc... Never mind today's schlockfest.

    @JV7  would have to be disappointed even though the win was there for the taking at the death.

    As for the Eagles,  as Barassi once said when he coached us,  a win is a win is a win.  Bank the win and go to Tampa and hopefully advance to 2 & 0.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
