    Yeah the games were ok, but more so cos of Bears come back and Miami making a bit of a run late.

    But the giants boys game was hit trash from the start until I turned it off.

    Packers looked good, Jacob’s has really helped improve this team.

    Lions looked very good too until their D started to leak, and with their best 3 defenders out I’m not surprised. And tbh this could cost the Lions a chance at the SB.

    Every season I am astonished at how many just plain bad teams there are. Poor skills, poor coaching, stupid mistakes. Look at the Raiders just then, O'Connell takes a sack pushing them back to the 40 causing the kicker to miss the FG. Just throw it away you [censored]. And that's just one example that happened in the last 2 minutes, yesterday was a day of horrible football topped off by the Giants/Cowboys game.

    another bizarre end to a game

    raiders make their way down the field brilliantly, without any timeouts left, to get within field goal range. 

    20 secs on the clock. time for one last play before trying the field goal and for some unknown reason the center snaps the ball to the surprise of O'Connell and the rest of the raiders Oline. in the confusion the chiefs recover the ball and the game is over. Awful mistake from the center.

    O'connell played very well. Based on this performance he could be real player

    Unbelievable. 

    Garbage coaching. 

    he's got the sack. 

    they've had the ultimate nearly season. Lost 6 games by less than 6 points. fine margins

    its an attractive job. Williams has definite potential

    Terrible play by the Raiders but also another call going the Chiefs way at the death. That call was called offside and the play blown dead so should not have resulted in a turnover. Refs confer for a few minutes and decide to call it illegal shift instead and allow the turnover to end the game.

    Yeah that was a bull dust call, like the Rams game the other week, when they declined the penalty so we lined up to go for it on 4th down and then they decided they did want to accept the penalty.

    Sorry if you declined no changing mind should be allowed.

    Same thing happened twice last week, Tomlin changed his mind late in the Browns TNF game and I think it was Philly also changed their mind on accepting/declining the penalty in their game. I agree it's garbage, once you make the call you can't change back based on what you see the other team deciding to do.

    Funny thing is I think it actually backfired on Tomlin, they would've been better declining the penalty in that snow game and trying to win the game on that one play.

    CMC goes down under no contact, Niners say it's a knee injury. All the best to him but no contact knees usually aren't good.

    Just a heads up for the remainder of the season

    Weeks 14, 15 & 16 we play for 3 points (and 1 point for 2 out of 3) ... plus a bonus point if you are the only winner (3 from 3 only)

    Then we play for double points in weeks 17 & 18

    Saying PCL for CMC.

    Living proof that it's near impossible to contend if your best players are constantly injured 

    Meanwhile, your division is almost impossible to call

    Going to be hard for the Niners now as any of the teams will need 9 or 10 wins with head-to-head and divisional record maybe being a factor

    Rams will probably need to beat the Bills next week but after that, all your games are winnable so you never know

    NFC North goes to the Lions as I can't see them taking their foot off the pedal.  Vikes & Pack should get wild-card spots

    NFC South is up for grabs (Falcons or Tampa) whilst the Eagles should secure the East.  Washington for the other wild-card looks likely

    Oh yeah, Rams were the same early, no TE, best 2 WR out and 3-4 of the Oline.
    Our div is weird, cant see the Rams winning enough to take the Div, Bills will get past us this week.

    Tough week! Which typically means there will be more road winners than usual😂

    I can’t believe I didn’t back the Bucs at $3.75 last week to win the NFC South. If you look at their schedule vs the Falcons it’s a lot easier (Falcons do hold H2H advantage) Bucs are into $2 now!

    Thankfully PCL and no surgery but with bad achilles now as well I'd say we've seen the best of CMC. Will be a big ask to hit those heights again and really the coach needs to take some responsibility for overusing him.

    Incidentally Jordan Mason the no.2 is out of the season as well.

    I've still got the Cards winning it but wouldn't rule you guys out.

    • 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.
