Well done to DemonDave & Dee Zephyr in gaining 2 points this week - very well earned as they had to tip away from the Chiefs!

Anyway, we're all on the board now with 10 points up for grabs in the last 5 weeks (plus a bonus point available in those 5 weeks)

It's been a real test of patience for all of us in such a weird tipping year but I'm reminded that points are easier to gain at the tail-end of the season - good luck you blokes!

Love looked great today @Macca

He looked as calm in the pocket as a vet. 

I listened to the whole match and the regular Packer commentators were quite impressed with Love's game.  Made a lot of smart decisions from the pocket

The team matched the Chiefs all game too so were worthy winners

But the team is the youngest in the league so hiccups will occur.  Run home isn't tough so we might fill a wild-card spot (vying with half a dozen teams along with your Rams, Gorg!)

49ers super impressive. they are pantsing the Eagles.

Purdy was fantastic and the 49ers are going to be hard to stop

Going into Philadelphia's home field and winning that way was mighty impressive

Of course, in this sport anything can happen and TD's can be scored from fumbles, interceptions or run backs so you never know

Your Cowboys aren't far off leading the NFC East now

Might be decided next Monday night - Eagles @ Dallas!

Might be helpful to have a pie chart. I'll do one later.

Sure to have @Gorgoroth seeing red! 

 

Looks like the large majority here on this thread have teams that are in contention, layz (apart from a couple of exceptions)

Dak playing well. He has options now other than Lamb. Ferguson at TE is playing very well and is developing into a reliable outlet.

Coughing up a lot of points though. Conceding 30-35 points a game won't cut it.

We've been here before with the Cowboys. Look the part but fold when playing quality opposition. Let's see how they go against the Eagles. 

Your boys showing a bit.

Blacked out everything and was prepared to lay the smackdown on any spoilers but made it to 5:30 yesterday.

The Eagles came out flexing their muscles while we couldn't generate any offense at all. Could have easily been another whitewash but in one of the first times on record known to man, Kyle made adjustments and went to a more pass first approach with screens. The classic example of the West Coast offense and using pass plays as if they're running plays.

Purdy utilised the weapons around him but I thought he played a fantastic game after what happened last time. 

The NFC is livened up now and I can't wait to see Eagles and Boys. December will be good viewing peeps. Sit back and enjoy.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
