*denotes bonus point awarded

In the final week we play for 3 points but a bonus point is in offer as well

Thus, 10 participants can still win either outright (or share the award)

I'll post up next weeks games asap but the scheduled times aren't programmed yet nor are the lines available

However, it looks a much easier week for the road teams (shudder)

    Puka Nacau needs 29yrds to break the record for yards received by a rookie. 
    Rams have clinched the play off spot, do they rest players or play them? 
     

    Id play him and get him the record.

    Eagles gone. Terrible loss v cardinals. not sure where things stands in the division but i think that leaves cowboys in the box seat.

    It sure does

    Also, there was a misconception about that the Eagles held the tie-break over Dallas but not so.  The Cowboys now lead the NFC East and they now control their own destiny

    The Eagles are now in the wild-card position and are now on the road throughout the playoffs unless Dallas slips up next week at Washington

    At this stage the Eagles will be on the road in week 1 of the playoffs against whoever wins the NFC South (and that could be one of Tampa, the Saints or Atlanta)

    Meanwhile, the Packers also control their own destiny.  Packers win next week and then it will be Green Bay or the Rams at Big D in the first week of the playoffs depending on whether the Rams win or lose against the 49ers next week (unless Dallas slips up against Washington with the Eagles winning)

    Confused?

    There's about a dozen other stories & scenarios but that's what divisional football delivers.  It's a great system (in my view)

    I read if the Rams beat the niners (and who knows if either team fields any starters) we would play Detroit in Detroit. Which would mean Stafford finally got a playoff game in Detroit, just not as a Lion 😂

    Yeah the 49ers have got the bye so if they rest a player like Purdy, he won't have played for 3 weeks when week 2 of the playoffs comes around.  But if he gets injured by playing next week, then the risk won't be worth it

    Definitely a bit of a dilemma as I recall about 10 years ago when the Packers (who had the bye) rested Rodgers and the whole team came out rusty in week 2 of the playoffs (the Giants won that game and then went on to win the SB) The 15 & 1 regular season record voided there and then!

    What the 49ers could do is strengthen their offensive line so Purdy can't get hit easily. Just use the game to try out different schemes.  Run the ball primarily as well

    As for the Rams, you may as well get ready for Detroit or the Cowboys as it's a tough assignment either way.  On the other hand the Packers have to win to get in and the Bears would love to play spoiler against a noted rival

    We were the same a few years back, rested everyone and was rusty as hell. I reckon we will play them for a half, treat it more like a pre season game.

    Bit easier to finish ... but is it ever easy?

    Good luck Gentlemen!

    Couple of AEDT Sunday games this week - both vital games too although the Ravens have stitched up the bye.  Pittsburgh a hated rival though so any concessions?

    McCaffrey rules out of Rams game, and a few lesser names. I won’t do my tip to the last min to see who is in and out.

    Last week always sucks dude to players sitting out or sitting halfway into the game. 
    Is he surprised if Wentz didn’t play at least a 1/4 on the weekend.

    Can't be bothered going back to see if it was discussed but the Broncos treatment of Russ is horrible... He has actually had a very good season after the slow start...

    I wouldn't be against the Falcons going after him depending on he's contract & price. Our QB position is a shambles atm, Ridder isn't it & Heinicke isn't much better, they've chopped & changed in the back half of the year & in games, pretty embarrassing really... Would be surprised if Arthur Smith survives to next season tbh... With 2 young kids I hardly watch games anymore, that & I think I'm still scarred from the 28-3 Super bowl debacle 🤣

    4 Rams make the Pro Bowl.

    AD99 of course.

    Stafford.

    Kyren Williams - well deserved, missed 4 games and is 370yrds of McCaffrey’s rushing season, for a second year player who missed played 10 games last year, two of which he didn’t see any action. 
     

    And the rookie sensation 

    Puka Nacau!!! I love this kid! What a season.

    Kyren Williams won’t play vs niners, seems Nacua will play to try and get the 4 receptions and 29yrds to get the records. Then will sit.

    Yeah just saw that, Wentz vs Darnold… I highly doubt Donald, Turner, Kupp will play either. Higbee is injured.

    A win means Detroit and loss and it’s the Cowboys. Rather the Lions tbh

    I believe you can lose and still play Detroit (depending on other results)

    Yeah and there is a small chance of playing the eagles too. But from what I’ve read the most likely scenario is win, play Detroit, lose play cowboys.

    All depends on whether the Packers win or lose.  If GB win the Packers go to 6th spot no matter what (I think) And the Rams have secured a playoff spot so would finish 7th if GB win

    But if GB lose, Rams must finish 6th (I think)

    The ESPN Playoff machine is getting a workout as GB can still somehow make the playoffs if they lose to the Bears

    Gonna be a Shmozz of a game.

    CMC will miss obviously and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Trent Williams, Deebo and others on limited minutes.

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
