@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.

    Rams have gone early, signing Cody Parkinson TE from Seattle and Jonah Jackson G from the Lions, which prob means Avilia will slot over to C for us.

    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.

    I liked Floyd, he was good for us, now he is a traitorous barstool who was only good cos everyone worried about AD99. 😂

    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.

    Draft day is here! Rumours of Rams trying to trade into the top 10 this morning are interesting.

    Falcons getting a QB with their first pick... WTF? and taking him at 8!!! Don't think he is a pick 8.

  • Quote

    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.

    Justin Jefferson signs 4yr deal, $140m, $110m guaranteed.

    Aiyuk and Lamb are rubbing their hands and turning to their agents and quoting Jerry Maguire.

    Tee Higgins signs his franchise tag.

    Aiyuk told Jayden Daniels on a video/face time that the Niners don't want him back.

    INTERESTING!

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
