Well done to DemonDave & Dee Zephyr in gaining 2 points this week - very well earned as they had to tip away from the Chiefs!

Anyway, we're all on the board now with 10 points up for grabs in the last 5 weeks (plus a bonus point available in those 5 weeks)

It's been a real test of patience for all of us in such a weird tipping year but I'm reminded that points are easier to gain at the tail-end of the season - good luck you blokes!

Love looked great today @Macca

He looked as calm in the pocket as a vet. 

I listened to the whole match and the regular Packer commentators were quite impressed with Love's game.  Made a lot of smart decisions from the pocket

The team matched the Chiefs all game too so were worthy winners

But the team is the youngest in the league so hiccups will occur.  Run home isn't tough so we might fill a wild-card spot (vying with half a dozen teams along with your Rams, Gorg!)

49ers super impressive. they are pantsing the Eagles.

Purdy was fantastic and the 49ers are going to be hard to stop

Going into Philadelphia's home field and winning that way was mighty impressive

Of course, in this sport anything can happen and TD's can be scored from fumbles, interceptions or run backs so you never know

Your Cowboys aren't far off leading the NFC East now

Might be decided next Monday night - Eagles @ Dallas!

Might be helpful to have a pie chart. I'll do one later.

Sure to have @Gorgoroth seeing red! 

 

Looks like the large majority here on this thread have teams that are in contention, layz (apart from a couple of exceptions)

Dak playing well. He has options now other than Lamb. Ferguson at TE is playing very well and is developing into a reliable outlet.

Coughing up a lot of points though. Conceding 30-35 points a game won't cut it.

We've been here before with the Cowboys. Look the part but fold when playing quality opposition. Let's see how they go against the Eagles. 

Your boys showing a bit.

Blacked out everything and was prepared to lay the smackdown on any spoilers but made it to 5:30 yesterday.

The Eagles came out flexing their muscles while we couldn't generate any offense at all. Could have easily been another whitewash but in one of the first times on record known to man, Kyle made adjustments and went to a more pass first approach with screens. The classic example of the West Coast offense and using pass plays as if they're running plays.

Purdy utilised the weapons around him but I thought he played a fantastic game after what happened last time. 

The NFC is livened up now and I can't wait to see Eagles and Boys. December will be good viewing peeps. Sit back and enjoy.

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
