New addition for the post-season tipping comp (assuming we get enough starters)

Working on the premise that we continue to post scorelines (as we've traditionally done) we could make the most of those scorelines

 

Week 1 ... 1 point per win plus a bonus point if your margin of victory falls within the actual margin.  i.e. 1-6,  7-12,  or over 12

Week 2 ... 1 point per win plus a bonus point using the same margin criteria as week 1

Week 3 ... 3 points per win plus 3 bonus points for the correct margin criteria

Super Bowl ... 5 points for the win plus 5 bonus points for the correct margin (1-6,  7-12 etc)

We can just continue to post up the scorelines as we've done previously and I can work out the rest of it (with the possible aid of a proof-reader!)

All feedback is most welcome but a tipping system where interest is maintained throughout is the ideal outcome

 

n.b ... the margin of victory would need to fall into the 1-6,  7-12 or over 12 margin to qualify for the bonus point (or points)

Rams got the job done yesterday. Akers and the o line were great, massive props to Everett playing a full back role at times and the WR blocking that was first rate.

Saints match was the trap game ... still,  GtB got the points (point) and if the Steelers win,  DZ as well

Washington now lead the NFC East with a 6 & 7 record.  No guarantee that they will win another game though!

Was an amazing game. My emotions were going nuts for the game itself and the fact I was on the verge of two multis coming up winners. Alas, it wasn’t to be, like the Browns failed mine both failed on one browns player each. 1.5yts to Chubb gets me $95, 8yrds to Landry gets  me $590.

The Browns/Ravens game was an absolute beauty.  Highlights aplenty!

The Browns lost no friends and they will be more than nuisance value if they figure in the playoffs

Meanwhile the Rams & Packers are likely to meet in the playoffs unless 1 or both teams get knocked out early

Not sure what to make of the bye ... the Packers need continuity but maybe they don't?  We should win out but the Titans game is tricky.  Bears in week 17 might not be relevant

The only thing the browns did wrong in the end really was they left too much on the clock but you can’t manage that when you need to score a TD.
 

in regards to GB matchup, Not even looking that far ahead. We have a winless team this week and I’m worried as hell!!! Then Seahawks and Cards who are looking for a wildcard spot and Seahawks want to win the division. 
cant see Seattle losing so rams must win all games.

At Seattle without a crowd ... even money bet

You'll take care of Arizona at home in week 17 and as for the J.E.T.S,  you're worried?

The line should be 35 for that game!!

Mate I’ve seen enough of my teams stuff it up vs crap teams and now Darnold is going to be replaced he will be out to prove to other teams he is worth taking.

Vital point picked up by 'Go the Biff' when no one else picked up a point (the Saints knocked most out)

Just a reminder that we play for 2 points this week and also in week 16 whilst in week 17 we play for 3 points.  So a total of 7 points are still available.  For most of us,  we'll need to take some risks

Good luck all! (a few standouts but it's still a tricky week)

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. 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. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
