I can’t see this working very well, but he is costing them sod all. And the jags will be poor so nothing lost if it doesn’t work.

Pats seem to be offering for him. It will be weird seeing him in anything but a Flacons top.

I just love how it took till 33 to decide he might need to try another position!

Pats have been on a shopping spree, wouldn't be surprised.

    The season is just around the corner. The Real Goat, AD99 goes 5x99 on Madden, Akers is out for the year, Stafford ready to take QB1 for the Rams.

    Rodgers shows up to training camp for the one last dance, Adams hasn’t committed to the packers either.

    NFL strict rules about vaccination has upset some, including Hopkins. The Rams fan in me hopes he sits out the year. ?

    OBJ seems to be flying, Barkley looks fit again. 
    Can the Bills build on last year? Can KC bounce back? What will the Steelers deliver this year? 
    Daks back… will it matter?

    Can’t wait for the season to start!!!

    Just over a month before we kick off the season ... that came up quick!! 

    Not really in the swing of things just yet but there is certainly a lot going on especially at the Packers!  Stafford/Rams is an interesting one but it could be a good match-up

    All the vision I’ve seen from practice is very positive. Some good connections with DJax long down the field but that threat makes me smile at the extra space Kupp will get as the field stretches. Kupps route running with Staffords arm and timing I hope becomes a thing of beauty.

    As I was saying @Macca

    Stafford to Jackson. Against the cowboys.

    https://theramswire.usatoday.com/?p=650668

    Full stadiums for all venues (at this stage)

    Another sport that needs crowds ... some other sports not so much

    I'll post up a brief preview on the tipping comp soon enough but I don't see any reason to change anything

    3 road winners with 1 or 2 points up for grabs depending on the week (week 17 -  3 points)

    Def needs crowd and in terms of LA, fan fights the very first time they had fans in it.

    Anyone watching Hard Knocks? Rolled my eyes when I first heard it would be Dallas but after seeing Elliott’s inability to wrap a birthday present and Jerry Jones having a cheeseburger while on the phone to his the head athletic trainer there could be some value in this season! :p

    Haven’t watched it. Have watched some pre season games tho to check some rookies out.

    Sippos makes it as Eagles punter. Great work.

    On the Rams, Hekker manages to keep the punting job and his comp is traded to the packers. Sony Michel is traded to the Rams to replace Akers. Atwell showed some and will be the punt returner and maybe a small amount of snaps. I would love to see him and Jackson both run deep at speed with Stafford throwing.

     

    I have swindled the Friday and Monday off round one so that’s going to be great for me and horrible for the wife 😂

    @Gorgoroth  @Dappa Dan  @DeeSpencer  @JV7  @Dee Zephyr  @Go the Biff  @titan_uranus  @layzie  @cowboy_from_hell  @Clintosaurus  @DemonDave  @pantaloons  @Strafford 

    Tipping comp again?  We get 5 or 6 starters it's a goer

    Reigning champions are Clintosaurus & titan_uranus whilst all previous winners include Clintosaurus (twice),  Gorgoroth (twice),  Dappa Dan,  JV7,  DeeSpencer,  Cowboy_from_Hell,  titan_uranus & Strafford.

    From 3 picks tip 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.  It's a breeze (apparently!)

    Weeks 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 & 14 are worth 1 point (for 3 correctly tipped road winners) and weeks 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 & 16 are worth 2 points (week 17 is worth 3 points)

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
