Yeah Giants and Eagles could well be the popcorn match on Sun.

I'm always reminded that in any given match, 2 or 3 errors/turnovers/fumbles or interceptions can lead to 2 or 3 TD's

And that can all happen very quickly.  For instance, the Jags QB (Lawrence) had a roller-coaster of a match but in the end, he somehow came through it all with the win!

So which team has caught alight? Probably the Giants and they are dangerous.

And the Jags can go into the KC game with a nothing to lose attitude after yesterdays miracle win.  And that can free up the play-calling.  They are not out of it

I had nigh on given up when that pass went there. My thoughts on the game, Rams did well stifling their run and run pass option, but our offence just couldn’t finish. I couldn’t believe that hit

Question for you guys: Biggest winner and biggest loser out of Wildcard weekend so far? 

Biggest winner for me is the Giants. Nothing to lose, their young QB Jones and playoff starved Barkley stepped up to the plate big time!

Biggest loser is the Chargers. Because, yeah..

Biggest loser is the Vikes, I just love the fact that JJ talking himself up as better than Kupp… yeahhhhhhh… Naaaaaahhhhhhh

Biggest winner is the Giants, they played out of their skins.

God that was ugly. It's like the Bucs decided to take all their ineptness from this season and make a show reel out of it. Even worse they made Dallas look like world beaters. Which sucks as to me, the Cowboys are the NFL equivalent of Essendon. And giventhat my NFL equivalent of Collingwood is the Giants, wildcard weekend had some low points for me

See I see the cowpatties like Carlscum, those cheating pats are more like Essendon for me.

What an amazing weekend of Wildcard playoffs that was!

Every game had something in it, loved having games on a Sunday to watch too

Beating the Seahawks 3 times during the year is a pretty sweet feeling.

Jaguars 10 @ Chiefs 38

Giants 21 @ Eagles 24

Bengals 28 @ Bills 24

Cowboys 13 @ Niners 31

Huge game this weekend @layzie. Cowboys had a nice tune up against the hapless buccaneers. They’ll be dangerous opponents. 49’ers definite favourites but I think there will be just 1 score in it. Hopefully we're not relying on Brett Maher to kick the winning field goal. Worst case of yips I've ever seen from a kicker last week.

Bills v Bengals should be a ripper as well.

Eagles and Chiefs to win comfortably.

Huge game @BDA. And old fashioned slobber knocker! I think it's going to be close as well, not much difference between the twio sides on paper. If we aren't on there could easily be an upset make no mistake about it.

The Giants may surprise and Dallas have got a real chance.  Reckon both games could be close too. 

Jags will need a bit of luck but that can happen and their coach (Pederson) won't be dying wondering.  Agree on Cinci/Bills ... should be a bottler!

2 games live on FTA today is ideal too. 

8.30am Jags & KC

12.15pm Giants @ Eagles

Mahomes ankle. Looking very ginger

Yeah he doesn’t look that’s good. This could be season. Jags are looking pretty good. Stunted at the end of that drive but with Mahomes the Jags are really in this game. Especially if they can keep the run game slicing the Chiefs D.

No Mahomes. No problem

What a drive from the Chiefs

Mahomes playing on and moving ok.  Might be a different story tomorrow when the painkillers have worn off

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
