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

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

You can join anytime, Dappa ... details page 81 of this thread (first post) It's fairly basic - 3 tips only ... all have to be road teams and if you get all 3 right, you get a point for that week (we also have bonus weeks) .... Page 81

Only problem is ... it's damn near impossible to get a point! Bit of fun though, all the same.

Faaantastic. Ok. I'll go for round 2. Just put up your picks on a regular post?

lol. Looking at 49ers today and Seattle on Thursday humiliate the Packers who are a legitimate SB threat.... I will be picking the Hawks with confidence.

Nah. They're weird games. Both sides go all-out and they end up being really tough games. We were going great guns then we ran into the Niners at the 'stick last year and it turned into a grind-fight with the Niners just getting up.

I'll take Seattle every day in Seattle as Kaepernick can't play in noise, but at Levi's...going to go Niners.

Yep, anytime. Last year we had about 7-8 regular participants but it's all very casual. Everyone is still sitting on zero but next week is the first of the bonus weeks (2 points up for grabs)

Who do you like tomorrow? I fancy the Lions and maybe the Chargers. Surely Detroit will start showing something yeah? Excellent double-header and the Giants can always spring a surprise (especially on the road)

Well if I'm still up for points I could just pick the away team in both... lol... But no if I had the whole round to choose from, I'd have gotten 2/3... Bengals, Vikings and Saints... and lost on Saints. These two games? I'm Eagles, so I'll be watching the Gmen get slaughtered. Then after that, Chargers to win.

I wouldn't count Arizona out. They did win in Seattle last year. I think they will get the Wildcard spot and cause some damage in the playoffs.

I do try to respect them. And I do succeed to a degree. But they're missing something. Or at least they were last year. Can't help but feel a bit meh towards Palmer. Maybe that's it. But yes, their brand is a lot of fun to watch.

Good comeback by the Colts ... they never seem to be out of games regardless of the scoreline. Luck had another good game but he wouldn't be happy with the 2 interceptions. Peyton and the Broncos will challenge again you'd reckon.

With a lot of the focus on the NFC it will be interesting to see who emerges out of the AFC. Apart from the Broncos, Colts, Pats and Bengals, there are any number of teams who might grab a playoff berth. What's the bet that the Jets are thereabouts again? (for a wild-card spot)

Ray Rice is gone for good after the full video of what happened in the elevator was released. THe NFL had asked all authorities for all of the video footage but only received the shots of outside the elevator. Now we see what happened and Rice's view of events is different from what actually happened. Seems a bit odd that the NFL hadn't seen the footage. It's the almighty NFL not the AFL.

Yeah to be honest, that is a damn awful situation. I think pretty much everyone feels sorry for Rams. Are you sort of partly glad now that you'll look past Bradford in the future? I mean.... Mariotta will be in the draft this year?

We will def chase a QB that is for sure.

I reckon Keenum will be studying really hard this week.

Yeah, I won't be picking the Eagles next week.

Pretty disgusting isn't it. I am a huge fan of Goodall and his leadership, especially given I'm a fan of one of the worst run leagues in the entire world... But their handling of this is looking pretty dodgy. The video is disgusting but you hate to see them being reactionary... Kudos to the Ravs for pissing him off though.

If you're really, really nice to me I'll give old Chipper a call and tell him you can have Barkley for your second rounder next year. lol You missed the boat on dirty Sanchez though.

C'mon giants. I wouldn't mind being a game clear of everyone in the NFC North.

Like the eagles are now.

Ok, I'll stop.

Wow the offence for both the chargers and cards are really tearing it up so far...

20 mins of play and I can't stop seeing them move the chains...

I take back everything I said about the Cards. Their D is sensational. Almost Seattle like actually. Well... So far.

Wow how about the freaking NFC at the moment... Eagles (by default), literally everyone in NFC North, Falcons, Saints, Seahawks, 49ers and Cards... That's 10/16 teams that look like they should be in playoffs.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
