A big 2 points on offer for week 13 so get the thinking caps on chaps. 

Do any of us go early with the Saints or is that a trap-game? 

Surely KC & the Rams win but might there be an upset?  One thing we know by now is that nothing is ever straightforward.  Unless it is straightforward.

Best of luck!

    And it's good to see a number of teams with excellent D vying for playoff spots.  They say that defense often wins out but the offense of KC,  Rams, Saints is quite something. 

    The teams with the best balance are probably still the Pats & Steelers whilst the D of the Chargers,  Dallas & Chicago has been quite miserly but Dallas' ability to score is an issue for them. 

    The Chargers run home isn't easy ... @ Steelers,  vs Cinci,  @ KC,  vs Ravens,  @ Denver. 

    By contrast,  Houston can win out and could quite possibly snag the 1 or 2 seed in the AFC ... vs Browns,  vs Indi,  @ Jets, @ Eagles,  vs Jags

    Wow Texans run is good for them.

    LBeen awesome watching NFL live over here... Rams & KC was unreal. Thanksgiving was good apart from Falcons @ Saints! 

    Saints @ Dallas should be a good one on TNF before I flight out Friday morning!

    Saints in trouble ...  scoreless at half time.  Trailing by 10 so it isn't a large lead.

    Credit to Dallas though ... they have turned things around after looking like they were done a month ago

    Had a feeling the Saints were their for the picking.. Dallas has played well over the last couple of weeks & the Saints were due 10 straight is a long run

    Opens things up for your Rams now in terms of the 1 seed Gorg ... as always,  a lot can change in the NFL from week to week.

    Yup, we need to win out if we want home advantage, not going to be easy but it’s in our hands.

    Not bad from the Cowboys I’ll give them that. Loving D Lawrence at the moment and Prescott did no harm to his contract leverage.

    Dayum. All those tipsters tipping late get the help this week of not picking the Saints.

    Yep,  risk/reward didn't pay off.  Still,  there's still a fair bit to play out and the key is to remain within striking distance before the 3 points is on offer for week 17. 

    And there's always the post-season tipping comp as a consolation prize ... might spruce that comp up a bit with a few more chances at gaining points.  But I'll leave that till later on at a more relevant time.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
