Jags receive 2nd pick, 4th and 6th rounder

Browns receive 5th pick, 2nd and 4th rounders 25 and. 2026 1st rounder

Les Sneads protege strikes on his first Draft, Jags take Hunter.

We haven't seen someone like Hunter for a long time. Someone who can play both sides and very well.

Going to be an exciting watch, I doubt he'll be a WR and CB his whole career but it's interesting.

I reckon he starts as a WR with some small goes at CB.

Arch Manning is already the forbidden fruit for next years draft, but there is talk he won’t nominate for next years draft and only has 230 snaps as a collegian QB.

 

Sanders finally drafted by Browns.

Funny, how his old man said that no young QB would want to be drafted there.

Yeah, @Gorgoroth , it's becoming quite the circus with Rodgers

I'd like him to do well and not spoil his legacy but he's definitely not the player he once was

It might work under Tomlin at the Steelers ... but it's a big if. The outcome may end up being more on the average/ordinary side of things

But the Steelers made the playoffs last season so that would be the minimum standard you'd imagine

I have no idea how this one will turn out, Gorg's post sums it up beautifully at first glance.

But one thing I think works in his favour is that the Steelers do play a fast style offense and use no huddles quite a bit. Could be a fun watch.

The other thing with Aaron is that while he obviously doesn't move the way he used to, he still throws the ball really well. I saw a short clip of their minicamp and he's still zipping 30 yarders in at speed. If he's got enough decent route runners around him (Metcalf, Austin and Washington nothing to sneeze at) then he might not even need to be the best version for it to work.

I can see it being like the Favre season in Minnesota, but it could also be a blip on the screen.

The NFL can't start quickly enough!!

So Friday 1st of August (10am) sees the pre-season off and running with the Hall-of-Fame match (Chargers @ Lions)

  • 2 weeks later...

Big watch, but from what ive watched so far its been good with Mina Kimes and Jordan Rodriguez.

All about the NFC West. Seems Mina has/is doing one for each division.

'Holding out' has been a term used forever and a day in the NFL at this time of year. A player basically doesn't take part in training camp or games until they've worked out a new contract or they get the franchise tag eg. Micah Parsons

However I'm now starting to hear the term 'holding in' a lot lately. Can anyone fill me in on the meaning of this one? @Gorgoroth @Macca ?

I'm guessing it means doing training camp but being unofficially disgruntled about their contract situation?

According to Google holding-in means attending practice but only training on the side or with injured players ... apparently it's done this way to avoid fines (?)

Obviously with the contracts at play in the background

Btw, the Bears beat the Bills 38 - 0 (!!) but Josh Allen and the other Bills starters didn't participate in the pre-season game

Yeah a hold in is showing up but doing sod all and not with the main squad.

And yep, they do it to avoid fines as Macca said.

Aha! Got it now.

So when Nick Bosa was at training camp lifting dumbells on the sidelines in front of the girls he was holding in!

Jauan Jennings strikes me as a very unselfish player but I think it has been to his detriment. Clearly wanted and deserved a new contract but didn't make a fuss. No hold out or hold in and now it's stuffed him up.

Yeah I hate all the players reducing to play on $20mil cos someone just got $22m a year.

They care more for personal money than success.

A sneak peek at the Week 1 games (the last week of the pre-season games will be completed on Monday (AEST)

All 4 standalone evening games look interesting

And there are a number of other good match-ups

The Philadelphia Eagles put an end to the Kansas City Chiefs' bid for a third straight championship and enter the 2025 NFL season as co-favorites to win Super Bowl 60 (+650). The Baltimore Ravens also sit at +650. Philadelphia and Kansas City had been tied at the top of the odds at 6-1 earlier in the offseason, but the Chiefs are now the fourth choice at +750, just behind the Buffalo Bills, who are 7-1 to lift the Lombardi Trophy.

The Detroit Lions hold down the fifth spot at 10-1. The San Francisco 49ers were 13-1 at one point but are now in a group at 20-1 to win Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California (Feb. 8, 2006).

The Bills, Ravens, Chiefs and Eagles each have win total marks set at 11.5

Here are each team's odds for each to win their division, their conference and the Super Bowl, as well as their 2025 win total and odds to make the playoffs.

Interesting that the Niners are above the Rams, Stafford effect?

I'm keen, got my RDO for the Monday, I'll get up and watch them all! ha ha great day incoming!

It's a reasonably long list of suitors including the Packers, Rams, Pats, Lions & Seattle

Apparently Jerry Jones hasn't discussed matter with Parsons or his management since March!

Jerry Jones is such a bad owner, he treats his stars like crud.

 

A week out before the Cowboys are at Philadelphia to open the season and still no word on Parsons!

And I'll prompt the punters here sometime on the weekend re the tipping comp

Just a refresher ... pick 3 road teams and if all 3 salute, 3 points! A bonus point if you are the only winner in any given week

Get 2 from 3 and a consolation point comes your way

Bonus weeks (Double Points) are weeks 2*, 5, 9, 13, 17 & 18

*Added in week 2 to add a bit of interest

It's interesting but also not.

They probably tossed a coin.

    The Melbourne Football Club has selected a new coach for the 2026 season appointing Geelong Football Club assistant coach Steven King to the head role.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • 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.
