Hey all,

I've been in Tassie for some some much needed relaxation and sampling of some of the finest whiskeys and wines the state has to offer 😁. Didn't get a lot of football watching in but I've since caught up on the happenings, Niners stunk it up in the best way possible to finish but we'll save that rant for another post as I think we've got a good playoff series ahead with a cool mix of teams.

Chargers 1 - 6

Ravens 7 - 12

Bills 7 - 12

Eagles 7 - 12

Bucs 1 - 6

Rams 1 - 6

Rams game is now at Arizona. 90% of sofi had been sold to Rams fans so a huge hole field advantage gone.

Didn't quite get up to that Burnie/Ulverstone area Gorg but I did manage to sample a tasting paddle of the Double Cask, The Journeyman and the Sherry Cask at Alida in Launceston one night at dinner.

The Sherry Cask took the cake for me but very impressed with the offerings. 

Also congrats to Go The Biff on a great win and thanks again Macca for doing the legwork!

My wife and I really want to get to Hellyers rd distillery, even spoke about doing a weekend trip just for that.

Stroud and the texans offense can't get anything going. they are badly out of sorts

he's found his mojo now. Miracle play on 3rd and long to get the TD drive going and a long scramble just before halftime to set up the field goal.

Seriously this game has been pretty bad, Texans got going late, Herbert has been horrible.

his O line and receivers are not helping much

very poor from the chargers. they were beaten in every facet.

Texans defence was good and stroud came up with some big plays but the Chiefs won't be losing much sleep after watching this game

Jackson and Henry are serious weapons. 13 plays, 13 runs for that Ravens TD.

All sizzle and no steak today

Both games over early

Should be better contests tomorrow apart from probably the Bills game

Yeah you could do it in a weekend easy. Fly into Devonport or take the Spirit.

I did manage to get to Sullivan's Cove while in Hobart. Unbelievable experience.

The good, Green Bay have been poor and only 10 points down.

The Bad, Eagles second half’s are usually much better.

receivers going down like flies, costly Oline penalties and some poor throws by Love (he should have hit one of those 2 throws to the end zone before the FG)

Packers still battling manfully though @Macca. 6 points down. It's doable

What a stupid personal foul to give.

Packers never really in it despite getting within 6 points

And the issues are overall (and that includes Jordan Love) ...  we beat the teams we should beat and then struggle against the better teams.  That's been the pattern the past 2 or 3 seasons

Still, that's still a lot better than being a cellar-dwellar but we're not a true contender ... maybe next year

very tame. considering the bone jarring contact that's permissible (some huge hits in this game) seems strange to have penalties for nothing contact like that.
