Looks like those Cowboys have cleaned all of our clocks !

Not saying I'm not happy... but bloody hell... Who'd have thought.

That wacky NFC East again this year.

Well that’s the Rams season done and dusted.

Without a decent o-line Goff is a super bust, McVay is looking more and more like a one trick pony who has been found out big time and like our coach has no plan B.

Our D has massive paycheques only superseded by the massive holes they leave in the secondary and the areas a running back wishes to run through.

The amount of penalties we give away is ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

Rams are nigh on doing a Melbourne.

It did at times feel a little too easy getting to Goff, he definitely needs a good line in front of him as many others in this league do. Rams are way better than what was on display yesterday. Still only 1/4 of the season in but its gonna be a very tough division to top.

Well done Niners! Great defensive performance. Jimmy G still hasn't really got going so I wonder what he'll be like when the running game dries up a little and he has to just stand in the pocket and throw darts. Still it's nice to show that we have an actual team and prove some people wrong. Last season was tough but most teams would struggle without a starting QB, RB and tackle for most of the season.

Agree your D line was good, but I felt we cut them up early in the run game, we had over 100rds and a TD in the second qtr which no team had done either for any game then McVay went pass heavy and all went to poo.

saw a stat Whitfield was rated over 80 last two years this year low 60s, Havenstein even worse. Lose to vets out of 5 and it hurts.

Felt like the Packers got away with one there ... thought that Darrius Sheoherd dropped sitter was going to cost us.

But Rodgers does it again and the defence held Detroit to field goals.  170 rushing yards was very pleasing as well

Only did the audio so will watch the highlights later.  All the same I'll take 5 & 1 from 6.  Even with a softish home field draw we've still played some decent opposition.

Any observations from anyone who might have watched?

Yeah no arguments from me there. Rams running was slicing early and it did seem like it wasn't going to stop. 

More often than not there's no way around injuries. Lose players, lose games. It sucks.

Mahomes dislocates kneecap, gotta miss games over that. Big point will be if there is ligament damage.

Out for a month only by all reports.  Which is great news for the League. 

But good news for my Packers ... we're at KC next week.  Doesn't guarantee anything of course but Mahomes being out is a significant loss.

Massive loss and if it was the Rams going to KC I’d b3 pumped. I’m watch8ng packers game now, but gotta leave for work in a min, Rodgers on fire.

Rams missed a 40yrd FG, We then hold Atlanta on their drive by sacking Ryan twice.

Eagles in real trouble now. Injuries too much, and going forward the list is in a fair bit of strife.

Gees Atlanta suck Gorg... I'm starting to enjoy watching other games more than just focusing on my team. Season is completely gone & we are battling it out with Miami as the worst side in the league. There's too much talent on the roster for Quinn not to be fired, he assumed DC duties and the D has gone backwards. He is a dead man walking.

I listened in to half time but the game was effectively over after the first 5 minutes.  Costly errors allowed Dallas to score 2 x TD's without much trouble

But you have those days ... you're at the Bills next and then 3 tough games at home (Bears,  Pats,  Seahawks)  Need to win at least 2 and probably 3 of those 4 games.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
