    Tough defensive battle. Some stupid clock management late in the game from both sides. An eerily similar game to last year's wildcard where the Niners could have sealed it but the Cowboys hung in till the end. Key takeways:

    - Pollard's injury changed the game. No doubt DeMeco Ryans' job was way easier when he went down.

    - The Cowboys needed to stretch us down the field more. Lamb was always a threat.

    - Not Purdy's best game but managed it reasonably well. First start he hasn't thrown a TD in though.

    - Kittle's juggling catch was probably the key play of the game. Thought Dallas had us hemmed in on that drive. 

    On to the NFC Championship game against the Eagles, Hurts will stretch us downfield. On the plus side I think we won't face a defense as good as Dallas again. I still think the SB winner is coming from the AFC though.

    Bengals D is humming at the moment. Chiefs is very solid too, especially at the line, if you face them Purdue will have pressure in his face all game.

    Eagles for me have a decent D, you just need to keep up with them.

    Yeah that plus side was a bit of a reach in that we probably won't face a defense better than the Cowboys but the teams left aren't far off. I actually really like Philly's front 7, Brock can expect the same pressure. 

    If I have to pick right now I think Cincy have everything in place at the right time, it can't be said enough how good Joe Burrow is throwing the football. Extremely accurate in the tight windows. Never hurts to have a dart thrower

    Burrows throws in the snow were first class.

    Well here's hoping the 49ers get through to the SB for those fans here on this thread ... titan/uranus,  DemonDave,  Go the Biff & layzie are all fans but I believe @Whispering_Jack and a few others that have been on this thread are also niners supporters

    For what's it's worth I'm picking the Eagles and I'm sure Dappa Dan is out there somewhere trying to boot Philadelphia home. 

    Not sure there will be much separating the teams at the end of the match anyway

    The other match could be a close one as well.  Cinci seem to be playing with house money right now so they can win at KC

    Reckon chiefs will need Mahomes to be moving 90% to stay up with the bengals, I think Bengals jump them and hold them off.

    Niners will need their D to play as good as they have all year, they have the talent and it’s key to them winning, but I think the Eagles offence will play well enough, I think this game will be lots of small possessions with big plays to get into red zone opportunities.

    Purdy and Hurts will face pressure like no tomorrow and will be interesting to see how they both face it. 
    TBH this game will nearly be won by the abetted O line

    In my opinion Eagles and 49ers are very evenly matched and stacked in many positions, except when it comes to QB. As good as Purdy has been he doesn't get heaps of Velocity on his throws so you'd be hoping Kyle can scheme guys open with some cushion. He's also going to get hit at some point by this Eagles front. It will be a defensive battle and whoever does better on first down will win.

    For Philly I'd be hoping Hurts has got past his shoulder concerns. He's going to experience his share of pressure too. A lot being made of the crowd noise being a factor, it all depends on who gets the better start where that is concerned. Would love to see us get through but as a tipping man I give the Eagles the edge. 

    The AFC title game is going to be a cracker. Bengals have so many weapons and I think they will get it done. Tips below:

    49ers 17 - Eagles 20

    Bengals 30 - Chiefs 23

    That’s what I meant by the Oline of either team is key. Which ever gives their QB the time could decide the whole game. 

    If the eagles Dline hold your run game to minimal gains that will be a huge advantage. But if you can’t split their front 7, the games yours to win.

    Rough start. Didn't challenge the Smith catch and now Purdy out, going to be up against it with Josh Johnson in.

    Defensive penalties very costly and then the turnover just before halftime. Mountain to climb for the Niners.

    Philly have executed today. Jalen has looked impressive, Eagles have made plays when it's counted. Their D has balled out, make no mistake this team is the real deal.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
