The Eagles can't get stuffed... Costing a much needed point there 😡

Is it just me or does anyone else hate tipping this year?

Yes it's been a bit tiresome but one consolation is that anyone can still win outright

Usually with 2 weeks to go at least half the field is out of the running

 

Bills  Bengals  Seattle

 

Puka Nakua! What a steal in the 5th round.

Stroud will win OROY award but Nakua should be making the conversation more interesting, but I can’t see them not going with the QB.

Williams also a 5th rounder from last year is second in rushing only to McCaffrey and Williams missed 4 games.

Eagles are very off the boil at the moment, so I wasn't tempted to tip the Giants against them this week. Too much of a long shot though so i thought better of it.


Packers, Colts, Cowboys 

Chargers played well yesterday, unlucky in the end. I actually thought the last TD for the bills would have stood as to me it wasn’t clear that his knee was still on the ground when the hand touched which would have given the chargers 80+ seconds.

Was a good game to watch.

9 points down start of the 4th. Dak needs to show us what he’s made of now

That early turnover really cost Dallas (RB fumble) ... WR's dropped a few easy catches too

Prescott can't do it all on his own

The way I see it is that Prescott is playing a huge part and is carrying the team

The testing material was New England with Belichick, Brady and their whole team from that era and the their whole all round game

Zac is so talented that we expect miracles

I agree. Dak has stopped throwing picks which has made a huge difference. He’s playing well. Both 4th quarter drives led to scores. He’s become dependable. I had my doubts he ever would.

the cowboys oline could not protect against the dolphins pass rush (which was very good) and that was the difference in a tight game. 

Good game between Boys and Dolphs. Tbh, both won’t make the Super Bowl, both are not quite good enough. 
Boys could be much better but the penalties they give away are epic!

The roughing the passer penalty against parsons was very harsh. Extended the drive which Miami translated into a touchdown. Had a big impact on the result.

True, but so did a lot of the other penalties that the cowboys do week in week out and against the good teams they get punished. 
It’s hard enough to win playoffs, it’s harder on the road when you have a poor record, harder still when you aren’t beating teams with winning records and then on top of all of that are one of the most penalised team in the NFL. 
Cut out 25-50% of the penalties, especially the false starts/ pre snap penalties and then they are prob a much better team. 
I mean they may go on a run and everything clicks then they are up to their eye balls in it, but go to SF for the championship game and give up 100+ yards in penalties and try and win. 

Vegas beat Chiefs! Freaking crazy! 
They bullied them, the ran over them, Adams had 1 catch for 4 yards and they still won! 
insane!!!

Purdy sliced the ravens D on the opening drive then threw a pick. 
This hopefully lives up to the hype!

  • NON-MFC: Round 15

    As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
