Draft is done and dusted. Bring on the season.

Reckon the Rams have a tough draw, think if we do pretty well it’s a 10-6 year and could see Seattle doing as well.

Dont know much on our picks as I don’t watch a lot of college ball, but hoping for some good picks.

So how is everyone feeling about their teams for this season. 

Havibg Kupp back for us is huge! Hurley training is a good sign and the fact Henderson is getting first team reps when Gurley isn’t training means he will be comfortable with this in front and around him come game day.

Our D looks solid again with a more focussed run D on the cards. Still think we have an insanely hard draw but just gotta win our division. We may not win enough for a wildcard.

Aaaaand we are almost back! This time last year the season snuck up on us as the Dees were right in the mix. 

Hanging out for the season to start this year! Don't know what to expect from my mob, always have the potency on offense but the defense is always suspect but we get key players back who missed most of the last season. I'd like to think we can push New Orleans for the divison but you never know what your going to get in this league.

Brees and Thomas will mean that NO will be a threat. Panthers and Buccs are interesting either could be good or bad. 

Injuries over the next 4 weeks will be crucial. We just lost Lawler who is a loss at DE but the fact he gets slotted across that whole line means the loss of flexibility is what truly hurts.

Luck announces his retirement effective immediately.

This [censored] over the colts.

That is a stunning development.  I'd half expect him to be back in 12 months if he can get his body & mind right. 

He's only 30 and 12 months off will allow enough time for his injuries to heal which in turn should help with to get his mind clear.  The other thing about Luck is that he lives eats and breathes all things NFL.

I wish him all the best and hope he returns

Yeah huge shock. I read an article last week about the fact he was avoiding his own medical staff with what was ailing him and would not train in front of his teammates, so def more a mind thing than a body I reckon.

Some teams have all the Luck. 

Going from Manning to Luck was one of the greatest moments of fortune in NFL history and the Colts just ruined him with an awful GM and no protection. The poor guy's has been belted for years and has had enough. Although you wonder what the heck is going on with his ankle - high ankle sprain, calf strain and something else all at once???

I hope he gets right and makes a come back but I'd bet against it. 

I think he's burnt out - remember he would've been a prodigy from high school to college to the NFL. 15 years or so of being the man. Of not messing up. It's a lot of pressure. 

So his ankle gets better and then he just comes marching back in? I don't think he'll want to do that to the Colts.

By the way - Jacoby Brissett might be good enough to keep the team together, he's a very good player, but keep an eye out for Swag Kelly. That's a guy with NFL level talent if his head is right.

 

Not far off peeps! Amped for another big season and plenty of discussions to be had!

The Andrew Luck news was surprising to say the least. Generational talent and I was a big fan. As Deespencer mentioned he has taken a battering for so long now playing behind mediocre lines. I’d love to see him give it another crack but I’d say that’s probably it, all the best to him he seems like a decent guy.

Been watching the new season of Hard Knocks which is on the Raiders this year and it's been enjoyable. Gruden is such a great coach for TV viewing :)

Here's a treat for you NFL fans

Sports Illustrated NFL Preview

(click on 'Activate Links',  then 'Novafile',  then 'I am not a Robot',  then 'Slow Download') ... wait 90 seconds then your download link will appear.  It's all on the up & up (and free)

You can then read the magazine through Adobe Acrobat or your choice of other readers. 

 

Whilst I'm here ... the tipping comp again? 

3 road winners in any given week is the task at hand (for those new to this thread)  Various points are on offer as we work our way through the season in order to find an overall winner.  Easy as pie (apparently!)

Anyone else seen ESPN is no longer doing RedZone ? It appears the NFL haven't given the rights to try and force internationals into buying game pass!

Tipping comp time again ... easy to play,  just pick 3 road teams to win from 3 picks.  Most week's there is 1 point on offer for getting all 3 correct but we have a number of bonus weeks where 2 points are up for grabs with the final week carrying 3 points.

All tips must be in before the games start for your particular tips.  No changing tips or editing allowed.  As stated,  it's a very easy process apart from getting them right!

Missing a week or 2 or starting late may not necessarily effect your chances of winning ... there are numerous weeks when no one gets a point or points.  However, the bonus weeks are where the comp is usually won & decided.

Bonus weeks are week's  2, 5,  7,  9,  11,  13,  15 & 17 where 2 points are on offer with week 17 worth 3 points. 

If we can 5 or 6 starters it's a goer. 

Just post up a yes if interested

@Dee Zephyr  @DemonDave  @pantaloons  @titan_uranus  @Strafford 

@Dappa Dan  @Go the Biff  @Clintosaurus  @DeeSpencer  @cowboy_from_hell 

@layzie  @JV7  @Dr. Gonzo  @Cards13  @Wadda We Sing  @daisycutter  @beelzebub 

Yes

I'm just going to stream RedZone then ... I can't go without JV.  I won't!

Still,  as Gorg pointed out,  Foxtel covering 3 games is good news whilst it looks like the 7Network will cover 2 games (early & late Sunday games?) 

As for the divisional outcomes,  I'm out of the loop a bit so I might have a go on the weekend.  Packers could battle a bit this season.  Maybe 8-9 wins but we're up against it.

Good pipe-opener though (Friday 10.20am)  ... Packers @ Bears.  The teams and fans hate each other so it'll be game on!  Packers have to keep it close and hope that Rodgers does his magic.  Bears could be good though. 

The oldest rivalry - bring it on!

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
