One of the best rivalries in football right now Gorg. I'm loving it. 

We're going to have our hands full in coverage, Ambrey Thomas still 50-50 and I've really liked his positioning work. Also anything that keeps that PI machine Josh Norman off the field is a plus. Kupp I'm conceding several catches to already, he's too hot right now. Can we minimise the damage from OBJ and Higbee. I don't know.

Higbee is the one to watch on third downs, he gets us more 3rd downs than any other player.

Kupp is in exceptional form. He has been quiet first halves with great second halves. 
 

To me the game with be lost and won along the two lines. Who controls the line will win the game.

What happened to Dap?

Not sure ... he's had breaks from this place before if I recall correctly

And if it wasn't for these other threads I would have had some time away myself!!

But now that we've broken through with the premiership ..............

Yep, we all needed a break from the main thread in that period I think.

Usually from November to February the only Demonland threads I visit are the NFL and cricket ones.

This year's been a touch different...

Bills should have known Chiefs would go centre field in the last 13. It's the quickest place to run to and with the time outs they could do it. Milano on Kelce was a terrible matchup. Should have gone an extra DB.

Agree, as I’ve said earlier, double Kelce and Hill and hope the other receivers don’t get you.

Yeah the NFL one keeps me sane. Soccer one good from time to time but it's not quite as active as this one. Sometimes go in the MMA one but it's usually just me having a conversation with myself.

But as an aside how much joy has the footy thread been this summer! Just keeps rolling on and on.

Re the tipping comp

For each of the 2 games this weekend 3 points awarded for the win & 3 points for the correct margin (1-6,  7-12,  13+)

So 12 points up for grabs

Mon 7.00am Bengals @ Chiefs

Mon 10.30am 49ers @ Rams

I reckon 5he Bengals can cause the upset, I’m just too chicken to tip them 😂

I’m doing it, need to go for broke!

Big chance for Burrow to go next level, tough but the possibility does exist in this universe I reckon.

If Burrow can play well then this like the Bills game will be high scoring and end to end.

Brady has retired.

You'd have to say that he got out on his own terms and at the top of his game

I'm a tad surprised that he is retiring but he is 44 years old.   Maybe the body said enough (or the mind)

7 x Super Bowl Champion!

What a career!

Seems the tweet which was from his account got deleted. Someone may have pulled the trigger too soon?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
