just watched the cowboys highlights. 

Conceding 44 points is a whooping. Dallas D carved up. Saints ran the ball at will and Carr had all day in the pocket. Zimmer with lots of work to do.

    Well Any Given Sunday was in full flight today… Some big upsets! 
     

    Have a strange feeling my Falcons will keep the trend going in Philly tomorrow…

    Just watched the PI on Cinci in the last minute.  Different rules in American football but there didn't seem to be a lot in it

    I've seen a lot worse not paid (and vice-versa)

    If Kirk Cousins can find his best form you're at least a chance of competing well

    The Eagles are a good team though.  Error free and you can match them (easier said than done)

    I knew I should've put the Saints. I was almost going to, that is the level of confidence I have in these Cowboys 🤣

    It seems like Alvin Kamara has been around for well over a decade but he's only in his 8th year.  Certainly had a day out with 4 TD's and big yards

    So Nacua looks like a 5-7 injury now, Kupp, John Johnso and Jonah Jackson all got injured and looks to be missing "an Extended time" I think thats coach speak for 4+ weeks

    So lose our best WR, another G and our most experienced Safety after being slaughtered... 

     

    EEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

    Don’t even get me started with the crud that was served up yesterday. The only thing worse than rocking up on Monday after losing to the Weagles in Perth this year is rocking up after losing to SAM FREAKING DARNOLD! No-one at work follows NFL so no-one has actually said anything but you can imagine what it would be like if they did. 

    Kyle, Kyle. You’re a decent coach, apparently an offensive mastermind, but take away the play action and you’re not left with many ideas. No CMC is absolutely killing us, Mason has been great running between the tackles but Minnesota stacked the box repeatedly and snuffed this out. No McCaffrey means no outside runs, minimal play action, no sneaky routes into the flat and as a result, no receivers getting open. 

    Even without CMC, Kyle has two of the highest paid receivers, a great TE, a half decent power RB, a future hall of fame LT and we still can’t beat the Vikes with Sam Darnold? A very good coach but has been and continues to be overrated in my eyes.

    And on that I'm glad we paid Aiuik 30m to run around unsighted. Perfect example of someone who cannot get open without McCaffrey in the team, very little shake and bake when it comes to man coverage.

    So rumour of Deebo being out this week too, but thats ok you are playing the Rams who are worse than you 😄

     

    Add to this list Higbee who is out most of the year, so essentially 7 of our best 11 on offence are out. 😢

    Yeah he'll be out for a couple. Another who the offense struggles without when he motions.

    Honestly think this game could be a coin flip Gorg.

    One more thing I'd like to add.

    Thank you gentlemen for helping me get my head out of footy. I feel exhausted with all the drama from the last 4 weeks. 

    Feels nice not to feel the urge of scrolling down all the current threads.

    How 'bout them Cowboys!

    Could be, but your D is very good, ours is poor, but in saying that its in LA and Verse has looked very good in his first two games. Just young and without AD99 we look shaky across the board😄

    Good first half, Falcons run game looks very good, Eagles Run game good too.

    Hope it opens up a bit more scoring wise for the second half.

    Falcons are moving the ball well but once in the final 10 they cant get it home and keep settling for FG's

    Barkley dropped the game!

     

    Eagles just didn't bother with playing D in the last 2 mins.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
