I’m still crying over Kupps hammy that he keeps hurting.

Rams are not going to be any good this year.

    Packers will be lucky to win 7 games as well.  Transition year but we'll need to change the overall offensive structure with Rodgers gone

    From what limit footage I saw Love looked decent. Poor kid is following Rodgers and Farve. So unless he is as good as them he might cop it a bit. Lot to carry there.

    I'm in for 23. 

    Glad the season starts this week, had a trade show this weekend and haven't even been on DL.

    Also while we’re lamenting a little here I’m jumping in.

    Once upon a time there were two fine gentlemen named Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch. The former was widely know as a play calling mastermind who called walk on water with his playbook however there was one problem, in 5 seasons he hadn’t quite found the ‘right’ quarterback to run his offense. So in the 2021 draft these two decided to give away first round picks in 3 drafts to gain the 3rd overall pick in that draft and take North Dakota State wildcard Trey Lance.

    The upside was enormous and possibilities endless, what an arm and legs that move! What follows? His development season is wasted because Jimmy is winning, that’s ok! He’s hardly played in college the last years because of Covid anyway so it’s not like he needed reps! How about next season that will be his chance! 

    He starts 2 games in 2022 with the brilliant play caller choosing to have him run between the tackles, better be careful Kyle he could get hur….. Oops, broken foot. Ah well, sh** happens. Kyle is usually so great at keeping his QBs healthy, I mean his dad taught him well! It’s not your fault Kyle you are still the man and we’ll just pretend the next 2 QB injuries that you had a hand in after that didn’t happen either, hush hush.

    Training camp 2023, the young man Trey will finally get his chance right at least split some reps with Purdy in camp yeah? Ergh ahh. Well about that, we just signed Sam Darnold and the thing is, even though he’s no good we sort of like him better and will give him more reps. Oh I nearly forgot, we also just signed Brandon Allen to compete for the backup spot, in fact this whole training camp we’re just going to give everyone a chance to be starting QB and not tell anyone who it will actually be. That sounds like a good idea that is proven to win things in this league.

    We get to the end of training camp. Trey walks into John Lynch’s office where he and Kyle have been chatting before practice.

    Lynch: “Hi Trey you’re here early? What can we do for you?”

    Lance: “Coach, Mr Lynch, I’ve been doing a bit of thinking. Well actually no I haven’t had to think about this that much, I want a trade. You’ve no doubt heard that Dallas are interested in me and I’d like this to happen today please.”

    Shanahan: “Trey, Trey, Trey my good man. Dallas have got Dak, and Cooper Rush who has proven to be a more than competent backup. Why would you want to go there and sit behind those two?”

    Lance: “Anything is better than this cruddy mess. This training camp, every training camp, my whole time here. Cya guys, all the best.”

    Trey is traded for a future 4th sealing the deal on the biggest bust in Niners history. Purdy starts under centre despite rehabbing his elbow most of the summer and not being able to work on throwing mechanics a lot.

    Rant is over, bring on the season lads! 😊

    Jags, Eagles, Cowboys.

    Niners,  Eagles,  Cowboys

    Good luck to all

    Lions beat the chiefs. And yes chiefs were missing a few that Lions Oline was so so good, the TE blocking was great and the signing of Montgomery has been a shrewd decision.

    We're getting the gang back together again! Good luck you blokes

    9 starters so far in the tipping comp (factoring in Gorg & myself) 12 once GtB, DZ & DS put their tips in

    And a reminder that newcomers are most welcome.  3 picks, 3 road winners, that's all there is to it

    2 points up for grabs in week 1

    And an interesting start to the season with the Jared Goff led Lions with an upset win at KC.  +6.5 point outsiders too.  A big win

    With Green Bay coming back to the field post Rodgers, the NFC North is up for grabs (as are most of the other divisions)

    Speaking of Rodgers, the whole J.E.T.S season will be a must watch

    MNF kicks off with the Bills at the Jets ... should be a cracker of a game

    The two 7mate games are Cinci @ Browns followed by Miami @ Chargers

    SNF - Dallas @ Giants (another classic match-up)

    I'll have an egg & bacon variety

    Just watched the Lions/KC highlights ... the Chiefs dropped any number of catches and Goff played very well

    Still, a very good win to the Lions especially at KC

    Big day tomorrow and it all starts at 3.00am for your blokes

    • 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.
