Mahomes and Kelce for the win. 
Flowers killed the comeback with the taunting then having the ball knocked out of his hand at the 1 yard line.

    Massive game from Kelce. Ravens choked hard

    Horrible start. Lions getting a lot of gold with outside running as expected.

    Lions might rue not settling for a FG on 4th and 2 to make it 27-10. A potential 3 score game has turned into 1 now.

    Massive luck in a few instances got the niners going and the way cashed in. Detroit fell apart in the end. 
    The Reynolds drop wide open was pretty much the end.

    Chiefs will on form win back to back.

    Recorded both games but followed the games on gamecast

    Looks like the Lions imploded or was it just the 49ers stepping up at crunch time?

    And the Ravens just couldn't score TD's despite being at or near the redzone a lot of the times.  Couldn't get it done?

    Niners got what should have been an interception that turned into a 53y gain, a one handed catch across the middle that was epic but also such a bad option/attempt. 
    Goff slightly missed Reynolds on a fourth down that really he prob should catch and Reynolds also missed a sitter on 3rd down, he just flat dropped it with no pressure.

    Purdy suddenly became Lamar and made great plays with his legs. 
    Lions should have been able to hold on/win that game but their second half was as bad as the niners got good, but either will be up against it in the SB. 
    What made the niners great through the year is not working at the moment.

    Great fightback. 24-7 down at half time but didn't give in, there was no way we could stop their run especially on the outside. 

    We were just flat out poor in the first half. Already mentioned defending the run but completely unable to get any pressure on Goff as well. I thought the Lions were outstanding in the way they approached this game and really exploited our weakness. 

    Some massive slices of luck helped get us going, the tipped ball Jennings catch and the Aiuik fluke. You need these rubs sometimes and if Purdy doesn't air it out there it doesn't happen. Then Dan Campbell's aggressive approach on 4th down. While it may have been wise to kick the FGs you have to remember its this approach that got the Lions to where they are. They weren't totally void of fortune themselves when Moody missed the field goal from 48 or Purdy couldn't get it to a wide open Jennings to start the 2nd half but that's football, take what they give you.

    The bright lights kicked in and all of a sudden Gibbs fumble and the 2 Reynolds drops, the pressure was on and Detroit seemed to wince in the moment. Once they lost the lead and had to rely on pass to get it back the momentum had well and truly shifted. They will be better for it, congratulations to Detroit for getting this far.

    Arguments could be made we weren't the best team on the night but I think we still deserved to win. Not thinking about the SB just yet happy to enjoy being NFC champs for the moment. Any picks for who's going to win would be extremely premature at this stage but the Chiefs have done it and know what is expected.

    For the time being, go Niners!

    Chiefs pass rusher Charles Omenihu tore his ACL yesterday. 7 sacks this season and was massive against the Ravens.

    Massive loss, means the pass rush on Purdy won’t be as good, they were great at creating pressure with only the front 4.

    Vegas has set the SB as a virtual pick-em

    49ers are at -1.5 which is close enough to a point after

    I was reckoning -3.0 KC but I'm 4.5 points out

    Very good player and he'll be sorely missed. Tragic for him.

    Still a hell of a defense though.

    I honestly think both offences should beat the opponents D, it will possibly come to special teams/turn overs. I think both teams score 24+

    Yeah I think there will be points scored as well. Stops and turnovers will be worth their weight in gold. 

    It's a horrible thing to think about for me but it's easy to see it coming down to a 2 min drill where #15 makes the big plays and gets them over the line. Can't win if you don't buy a ticket though.

    Tbh if it’s 2 mins and you have the ball you have nearly as much chance as they do.

    (I feel dirty writing that and will go for a bath full of sanitizer 😁)

    Last time I had a bet on scores being level at the half and chiefs winning. Might do the same bet again this year.

    Tips Gentleman (and margin)

    5 points for the win & 5 points for the correct margin bracket (1-6, 7-13 or 13+) 

    San Francisco are -1.5 favs over KC so that's close enough to call it a pick-em

    Here's the leaderboard so good luck!

    • 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.
