    Chiefs have got this if they're smart

    Unless they miss the field goal ... 11 seconds to get 3 points for the Eagles if KC get the field goal

    8 seconds ... can't see the Eagles performing a miracle (but you never know)

    Looks like 'Go the Biff' & Clintosaurus have both won the tipping comp.  Gold!!

    'layzie' has rattled home to claim the Silver medal whilst JV7,  DeeSpencer & Dee Zephyr all get the bronze

    Eagles the best team but chiefs have the best QB. Very close one to call. Reckon a late field goal could decide it. 

    I wish I was a betting man.

    Great game. Mahomes is a rare talent. 

    Mahomes was magnificent, dodgy ankle and all.  He was in genuine pain but kept marching his team down the field.  Brady-like

    There's talk that Mahomes might eventually rival Brady as the best of all time

    But first he needs to catch Joe Montana who, up until 5 or 6 years ago, was regarded as the best

    But as great as Montana was, Brady has to be regarded as the best ever, especially with 7 x SB rings.  In a 32 team league, 7 SB wins is extraordinary!!  Played under great coaching of course (and with great teams)

    KC should get at least 1 or 2 more titles you'd imagine as Andy Reid always seems to get his team into contention.  And Mahomes is only 27 years old so another 8-10 years at his optimum?

    For me Brady isn’t even top 3, prob not even 5 QB’s if you go by talent in the position, he just won the most. 
     

    No one ever talks about how good the defence he had on the pats team was. They are always left behind. 
    Then add in The coach etc

    oh and the cheating.

    But he is to this day one of the best 5-8 hrs across the middle passers I’ve seen. And he had a mental toughness that will be hard to beat and a desire to win like no other.

    As a QB, he knew his limitations, and excelled at what he was good at. 
    Put Montana and Rice in the modern pass happy, protected game it is no and he would be next level on the greatness he was.

    Brady's greatest strength was his management of games.  No one else comes close and that is a rare talent

    It's like he was another coach actually playing.  Steven May x 5 or 10 in my view

    I'd agree with you on the rest but all things have to be taken into account including the biggie ... game management.  And he did it all well into his 40's.  The whole cheating aspect was over exaggerated too.  Mostly borne out of jealousy & envy

    Brady is the G.O.A.T,  Gorg.  In my humble opinion!

    If you have an opinion why be humble about it 🤣

    I’m blatantly biased. AD99 is the best for me, like Brady, he was too short, arm reach and hand size too small, proved them wrong to the point that he has done things on defence that interior linesman shouldn’t ever be able to do.

    Not to mention in a salary cap era too Macca. Brady is lapping everyone at this point. 

    Once you get into that rare mix of great coach and great QB, the special stuff happens!

    Well, you've got a point.  So I said it, so it must be true!! haha  ... forget the humility! 

    But if we're talking all time best, any position,  then the debate could go on for quite some time.  And Aaron Donald would certainly be in the conversation as his influence and great playing ability is immense

    How about Jerry Rice and his numbers?  1549 catches, 22,895 yards & 197 TD's (thanks google) ... and 10 first-team All-Pro lists

    Surprisingly, Brady only has 3 first-team All-Pro lists

    Aaron Donald has 6 first-team All-Pro lists

    Rice and Montana for me were next level. I watched them toy with the Rams for years and when it seemed over they replace him with Young who lost to the Rams like once.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
