@layzie you know how much I dislike the niners but I really felt for you and the others.

Losing Dre was huge. KC hit those area he would have patrolled. Shanahan is like McVay, McVay will call passing plays when the right calls are the run, as you said, 80s vs 120s is insanely big. And with all the blitzes I was expecting a Kittle/CMC screen fest. 
I felt similar after the pats loss, I still believe if Kupp didn’t do his ACL we win that game as McVay tried to call the game like Kupp was available.

It really was massive losing Dre. Seeing replays when he was in the game he was flying around in coverage and Burks just wasn't up to filling his shoes. 

That shirt pass to the dirt before the FG irks me even more now. You need all those smaller details right when you want to beat Mahomes and Reid and there were just too many situations like this. 

Still so numb, hopefully footy comes along and is the circuit breaker.

Are you kidding me Dolphins???? Unbelievable finish, one of the best plays I’ve seen in a while.

Consolation prize for you @Gorgoroth  You're the winner of the post season tipping comp!  Well played and good tipping.  I'll post up the overall tallies sometime in the next day or so.  2nd goes

I had nigh on given up when that pass went there. My thoughts on the game, Rams did well stifling their run and run pass option, but our offence just couldn’t finish. I couldn’t believe that hit

Nabbed Leonard Floyd. 

2 years $20m. Love this signing. Doesn't get hurt, gets to the QB and he's better than Gregory, Ferell and maybe Chase Young who will all leave.

Not sure how he'll go in a wide 9 front, I don't believe he's played in one before.

Kirk Cousins to the Falcons, thank God we have a QB! However not sure at his age & coming off an achilles a 4 year deal is all that wise.... He strikes me as a Matt Ryan 2.0

Jimmy G is a Ram…

13 and 3 coz we're with Jimmy G! 

Fascinating move, more than capable backup. 

Does that mean we can have Carson Wentz now? 😜

I mean I figured we would have just stayed with Wentz, but Jimmy is a step up on recent form. But I also hope to never see him on the field other than when we have won the game so convincing that they take off the starters.

The plus side is that in a good team he's a guy that can win you some games. 

You just hope it's not too many where that needs to happen.

Usually so pumped for draft day but February knocked the stuffing out of me. You get to a point where it probably doesn't matter who you draft if you can't make big play calls in big moments.

I do believe we've taken a lineman that can play all 5 spots though, promising.

I'm stoked we took a kicker! 

But our first two picks look very good.

Rams the likely team to play a game at the MCG in 2025... I will be there!!!

I'll be there too if tickets aren't impossible to get. Been way too long since this sport graced our shores.

Aiyuk has requested a trade.

 

I honestly think thjs is to force the niners hand one way or another, but they have a record of signing their players later into the pre season.

I cant see them letting him go.

    CONSISTENCY by The Oracle

    "I think we have got a team that can win a premiership, and if we get in this year, I don't think there is a team that is going to want to play us. This year is not a write-off, I don't concede that. Not at all." — Collingwood President Jeff Browne. I love this sort of optimism from the Magpie President after his club’s eleven goal defeat at the hands of the fast rising Hawks. It’s consistent with the fighting spirit of the club that won last year’s flag.  I only wish I could say the s

    FEARS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne’s worst fears about the absence of Max Gawn were realised when it received a shellacking from Fremantle’s ruckmen Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson who dominated the hit out tally in their game at Optus Stadium on Sunday by a massive 47 to 19. As a result, the 50-point deficit at the end of the game proved to be a loss that was long foreseen that was two years in the making and demonstrated a complete lack of hindsight and planning from the club. To add insult to injury, Jackson was a D

    PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

    The Demons return to the MCG in Round 20 to take on the GWS Giants and will be hoping the injured Captain Max Gawn is fit to return to his role in the ruck as their season is slipping away. Who comes in and who comes out?

    RAIN CHECK by Whispering Jack

    The Frankston Dolphins broke a run of six straight losses against their neighbours, the Casey Demons and kept their hopes for a long-awaited return to the VFL finals alive with a 27 point victory over at Kinetic Stadium. Casey was welcomed to the Peninsula by grey skies, heavy rain and angry seas with threatening white-capped waves whipped up by gale force winds. After a slow start in the opening term when they failed to take advantage of the breeze, it appeared that the Demons had decided
