Yeah who would have thought all you needed was Mahomes to re hurt his ankle…

Unless they miss the field goal ... 11 seconds to get 3 points for the Eagles if KC get the field goal

Looks like 'Go the Biff' & Clintosaurus have both won the tipping comp.  Gold!!

'layzie' has rattled home to claim the Silver medal whilst JV7,  DeeSpencer & Dee Zephyr all get the bronze

More later

Great game. Mahomes is a rare talent. 

Mahomes was magnificent, dodgy ankle and all.  He was in genuine pain but kept marching his team down the field.  Brady-like

That guy is special 

There's talk that Mahomes might eventually rival Brady as the best of all time

But first he needs to catch Joe Montana who, up until 5 or 6 years ago, was regarded as the best

But as great as Montana was, Brady has to be regarded as the best ever, especially with 7 x SB rings.  In a 32 team league, 7 SB wins is extraordinary!!  Played under great coaching of course (and with great teams)

KC should get at least 1 or 2 more titles you'd imagine as Andy Reid always seems to get his team into contention.  And Mahomes is only 27 years old so another 8-10 years at his optimum?

For me Brady isn’t even top 3, prob not even 5 QB’s if you go by talent in the position, he just won the most. 
 

No one ever talks about how good the defence he had on the pats team was. They are always left behind. 
Then add in The coach etc

oh and the cheating.

But he is to this day one of the best 5-8 hrs across the middle passers I’ve seen. And he had a mental toughness that will be hard to beat and a desire to win like no other.

As a QB, he knew his limitations, and excelled at what he was good at. 
Put Montana and Rice in the modern pass happy, protected game it is no and he would be next level on the greatness he was.

Brady's greatest strength was his management of games.  No one else comes close and that is a rare talent

It's like he was another coach actually playing.  Steven May x 5 or 10 in my view

I'd agree with you on the rest but all things have to be taken into account including the biggie ... game management.  And he did it all well into his 40's.  The whole cheating aspect was over exaggerated too.  Mostly borne out of jealousy & envy

Brady is the G.O.A.T,  Gorg.  In my humble opinion!

If you have an opinion why be humble about it 🤣

I’m blatantly biased. AD99 is the best for me, like Brady, he was too short, arm reach and hand size too small, proved them wrong to the point that he has done things on defence that interior linesman shouldn’t ever be able to do.

Not to mention in a salary cap era too Macca. Brady is lapping everyone at this point. 

Once you get into that rare mix of great coach and great QB, the special stuff happens!

Well, you've got a point.  So I said it, so it must be true!! haha  ... forget the humility! 

But if we're talking all time best, any position,  then the debate could go on for quite some time.  And Aaron Donald would certainly be in the conversation as his influence and great playing ability is immense

How about Jerry Rice and his numbers?  1549 catches, 22,895 yards & 197 TD's (thanks google) ... and 10 first-team All-Pro lists

Surprisingly, Brady only has 3 first-team All-Pro lists

Aaron Donald has 6 first-team All-Pro lists

Rice and Montana for me were next level. I watched them toy with the Rams for years and when it seemed over they replace him with Young who lost to the Rams like once.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
