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)

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
