Yeah ... stumbled across them by accident when googling for weekly previews.  Not overly long too which is good - short & sharp for a quick overview.

Your game is the pick of the bunch ... Vikes will be desperate for a win and the Eagles can't afford to drop another one.  2 good teams going at each other.  7.25am start.  Rams @ Seattle on at the same time followed by Dallas @ Houston (SNF)  That's some good NFL fare.

Yeah agree. One of those ones where whoever loses will get pilloried in the media. Stressful for fans of both teams though.

 

Bloody Seahawks knocking out cooks and Kupp. Good job by the O to still get the job done, shields hurt his shoulder too.

Worried about these injuries with the run we now have coming up, being 5-0 is huge and all credit to my boys.

 

Did anyone see the Bills player tackle Mariotta in an upright tackle then let him go and mariotta ran  away and threw to the end zone... crazy!

Yeah saw that ... it looked like he gave up on the play.  The new ruling has got some of the defensive players 2nd guessing themselves. 

The Eagles/Vikings & Rams/Seahawks games lived up to their billing.  Managed to watch both on redzone and they covered both games well.  Lots of close matches again and we continue to see games going to overtime.  SNF was good too although I'm not sure that either team are going to feature at the pointy end of the season.

Power went out at our place so I only got to watch up to half way through the last of the early games, so missed the eagles/vikes, Rams/Seahawks. Watched highlights on B/R.

Packers got off to a bad start, 4 missed FGS but the alarming thing for me from what I saw was the complete lack of blocking at times by the oline. It was like they wanted Rodgers under pressure.

Chiefs took it to the jags and slapped them, Mahoney didn’t throw a TD iirc but they got the job done.

Looking forward to todays game.

I don't have any expectations with the Packers as I don't rate the team as being any better than a 7 or 8 win team this season.  Anything above that will be a bonus.  And we have a horror stretch of games coming up from week 8 onwards.   I am a realist.

I am way more interested in watching the league as a whole. 

Really struggled to watch many games at all this week it's been a rough week due to some other circumstances. 

Watched the highlights of Eagles @ Rams. Interesting game. Still hard to get a read on the Vikings though their offense can go through sluggish phases but it was still a great win.

As for the Niners it's fairly simple, playing hard and with heart but missing key personnel, the line is weak and we turn the ball over at crucial times. Beathard has already had two fumbles from his throwing motion. 

At least the Cowboys lost!

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’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 nation’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.
