I have a breakfast/brunch tomorrow morning which will interrupt my play off watching, thank freak for IQ on Foxtel.

Ha! These 2 weeks of Sunday playoff games are brilliant. Perfect times for the games as well. Kicking off at 8.30am is ideal.

I'd keep away from this thread until you've caught up in real time! ^_^

 

Niners 23. Packers 20

Bengals 34. Chargers 24

Eagles 34. Saints 31

Colts 28. Chiefs 21

Good luck all.

 

Excellent drive by KC. Hope Charles gets back.


Terrible drop by Richardson - now 24-7 and we've just started the 2nd quarter!

Alex Smith having a good one

 

The Charles hit didn't look that bad either - maybe when his head hit the ground? Doesn't seem to be effecting KC's scoring ability though.


Yeah they said in the broadcast the medicos believe it is when his head hits the turf.

Have they ever done a study on amount of concussions on artificial turf opposed to grass?

KC are smashing Indi all over the place. Colts will need a big solid first possession in the second have and hold KC to try and get them selves back in the game.

Yep, agreed. Dominant first half by KC. Alex Smith has been super impressive and Andy Reid's influence stands out. KC look really well prepared.

Luck and the Colts have a habit of big comebacks but will the Chiefs let them?

Will keep this brief:

  • Charles - unbelievable. Such an innocuous fall. To lose a guy who will likely be the MVP runner-up in the first couple of minutes of a playoff game is so, so cruel. Maybe he's faking it and we're resting him for Denver though.
  • Maybe it's my pessimism (ably backed up by Charles' injury and the fact we haven't won a playoff game in 20 years), but I don't consider this over. Negative cues I'm wary of: a Davis fumble, Mathis starts to get loose, Indy protects the ball and moves it consistently, putting points on the board.
  • I used the injuries as an excuse on here in the earlier game against San Diego and to a lesser extent a couple afterwards, but Houston and Hali make our D work. We're seeing that today.

Game on and there's plenty of time.

KC need to score on this drive. 38-24 currently

Another turnover leads to a KC field goal. 41-24.

That might be a telling 3pts gained there by the Chiefs.

Wow, what a drive (and finish to the drive with the fumble recovery!) by Luck...

Game on indeed now!

Colts hit the lead - unbelievable! 45 - 44. Been a terrific game despite the turnovers.

If Luck gets them over the line here, it will be yet another huge comeback win. Still hoping for a KC win despite not picking them.

Smith needs to get them in field goal range (at least) That's a good start ...

Can someone please tell me how much we won by? I just got back from booking airfares and tickets to NY for the Superbowl.

Injuries cruelled you and not having Charles late in the game was a major influence on the ultimate result. Still should have won though. However, we at least know that Luck and the Colts have done this sort of thing on a number of other occasions.

If Bowe had somehow got his right foot in bounds on that last drive, you probably win. Fine line. Your team had a terrific year, all the same. Especially from where you were coming from.

 

Saints getting on top now. Philly have only scored once in nearly 3 quarters - they need to get a hurry on.

20-7 after that TD.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
