Ewwwww, MNF wonโ€™t be a great one.

TNF will make up for it. Wentz vs Newton. Who are we picking in THAT one?

We all only need make one pick this week. No way anyone isn't picking the Pack and Pats with their first two.

 

Yeah,  you're right Dappa,  it's finding that 3rd road winner that's tricky.  However, would any of us be surprised if the Pats or Packers lost?

Seeing we're on a new page,  here are the games again ...

Yeah canโ€™t wait for Fridayโ€™s game. Should be a Cracker.


As the yanks are apt to say,  Friday's game could be a barn-burner. 

I'll go for a scoreline of 32 - 29 in the Panthers favour ... home field decides it.  If the game was played in Philly,  reverse the scores.

I'm inclined to agree. PhillySS.

Iโ€™m going the other way, eagles 27 - 24 panthers.

Lane Johnson out is huge tho.

Big talk. You should tip them, right? 


I'm hoping the Eagles get up..  

This year seems harder for tipping, if that was actually possible!

Pats

Steelers

Packers

I probably shouldn't tip this early, but it's one of those weeks.

Pats and Packers and...

Bucs.

Patriots

Packers

Rams

On the Rams!!!

Brave. I don't trust our ability against the run yet. It has been much better last two weeks but jags run it so well.

Anyone gutsy enough to pick Eagles?

Caught most of the 1st half today... Both QB were under pressure from the defenses, and Carolina couldn't get any run game going.. The 1st interception from Newton which was a huge play made by Cox sort of turned the tide. Didn't see any of the 2nd half though, good road win for Philly

The run D was startling from the Eagles. Dropped them in the backfield more often than not. I think they ended up averaging 3 inches per run play. That in turn led to Cam having more pass attempts than any game in his career. Eagles corners did enough, even though they were one on one... then Cam got hurt on an almost TD run... And he couldn't throw right at the end.

Was an absorbing game, but not one for the highlights.

Not that we care. 5-1!!!!!

If you said to me at this stage Eagles would be on 5 wins and Dallas, Giants and Skins would have 2 or less I'd have laughed in your face. And add to that Zeke is going to be out for 6 weeks!

It'll still go down to the wire, the NFC East... But as of an hour ago, Eagles are the favourite. Couldn't be more pumped.

My take on todayโ€™s game that I tipped the eagles would win.

Just didnโ€™t post it as one of my tips... idiot. Ha ha

Eagles D v the run was immense. So so good.

Wentz hits third downs like I sit on the couch. I canโ€™t beloeve how many he hits.

The penalties against the eagles was terrible, then the same not called against the panthers.

Eagles did their best on offence to throw the game late, but Iโ€™m stoked they beat the Panthers.

Not just third downs, but third and 10+... At one point last week he hit 3x3rd and 11s... I dunno. Surely that's not a tactical thing, but just a bit of luck. Fell back to the pack a bit this week. 35% hit rate or so.

Man... the week 14 game vs the Rams is going to be a helluva thing. I reckon by that stage both our divisions will be praying for a win.

If your run D is as good as it was tonight we are fooked.

McCaffrey 10 receptions. Also, Gurley 'aint as bad as Stewart.

Also I'd take your WRs over Panthers WRs.

Itโ€™s funny thinking we have better WRโ€™s than anyone...

I laughed. Then I thought about it... If they're not #1 in terms of names... they're not far off.

Rams - Watkins, Gurley, Kupp, Woods, Austin

Packers - Nelson, Cobb, Adams, Bennett

Steelers - Brown, Bryant (you have to include them)

Giants - OBJ, Sheperd, Marshall, Engram

Cowboys - Dez, Beasley, Witten maybe?

Falcons - Jones and it doesn't matter who else?

Patriots - Edelman, Cooks, Hogan

Broncos - Thomas and Sanders

Raiders - Crabtree, Cooper, Lynch

Bucs - Evans, Brate, DJax, Howard

They're the ones that jump out at me. Eagles have good ones with Ertz, Jeffrey, Agholor... but too early to put them up with the big boys.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourneโ€™s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nationโ€™s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
