Looks like the chiefs have developed a running game to make it even harder for the chasing pack.

high quality game first up. Chiefs, again, will be the team to beat this year.

What a game!!!

The toe will be the talking points but for me it was Jackson missing flowers wide open the play before. 

The best make that throw.

It truly is a game of inches.  Only audio my end, but maybe just one inch in it!!  

Ravens have got a tough 4 weeks coming too so Jackson missing Flowers could turn out to be costly

I like him can’t believe this is in Brazil, I mean I get it grow the game but the Eagles lose a home game vs a play off contender.

Cant wait to watch this today.

Eagles have been terrible on their first two offensive drives.

Their D has been ok tho.

Love looks good early.

Packers running game just not there

 

Edit: And just like that the running game appears

Yeah the surface was terrible. 

Eagles got going and their D restricted Love, Barkley was good for them as was Brown, Jacobs got going late but Love being hurt with 6 seconds left isn't good for Packers fans.

Apparently Love was walking unassisted so might be ligament damage only.  But that can be 6-8 weeks if it's major damage.  Worse case scenario is a leg break near the ankle but I'm not sure he could walk around at all if it was that bad

Eagles too good even though the scores were close.  It felt like they were in control of the game for the most part with the difference being Barkley?

Barkly was the difference on offence, but I thought the Eagles D, especially the rookies in the secondary stood up and covered the GB receivers well.

I didn't have high expectations this season mainly because I reckon Love needs more time to improve.  4-10 weeks out with the small amount of info available

The back-up 'Malik Willis' was formerly the QB at the Titans and only arrived 2 weeks ago so he's got it all before him

@Gorgoroth

What's the go with the Rams?

The bookies have got them as long shots to be the Super Bowl winner (35-1)

Yet the Rams are roundabout even money to make the Playoffs (5-4)

Oline injuries and secondary banged up and a hell of a lot of rookies. No AD means we can prob win enough for play offs but beating the good teams will be much harder.

7Mate Games ...

And I got your tips, Gorg

Just scrolled back and saw them

Houston, Pittsburgh, Dallas.

Wasn’t going to do tips this year but you’ve sucked me back in thanks Mac.

Thoughts on the season.

AFC
North - Ravens, Bengals
East - Jets, Dolphins
South- Texans
West - Chiefs, Chargers

NFC
North - Packers, Lions
East - Cowboys
South - Falcons
West - Niners, SeaHawks, Rams

I’d probably switch it up now but I have to hold true to my preseason prediction of Packers-Jets in the Super Bowl.

Everyone on the board in the tipping comp!  Now, that's a first!

No real surprises in the games this morning although the Bengals & Falcons losing were minor upsets

Rams @ Lions & Jets @ 49ers are the games that many are looking forward to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
