Anyone else a Vikes fan, or do you all think you suffer enough as Demons supporters?

Go Chiefs - but hard to dislike the 49ers after the way they smashed Green Bay!

Best day of the year to go skiing is Superbowl day.  Everyone, and I mean everyone is inside in front of the TV, and the slopes are all to yourself...and the few disgruntled towies sitting in the cold!

Yep, spent a whole day in a sports bar in Park City and that was just for the Championship games

 

Always had a soft spot for the 9ers. A mate of mine organizes an area at the Wharf Hotel every year and he has never seen a Superbowl victory for them. I'll be there decked out in my Denver Broncos gear. I recently came across my old Orange Crush jersey that a purchased in Denver in 1983. I won't be wearing that as it's a bit tight and I don't think I'd be able to breathe after a dozen Bud's.

All you NFL fans should be posting on the NFL page in other sports

I generally post on the NFL page on bigfooty or Jets Gang Green forum if in doing my NFL thing

On the 9ers, Bosa is a beast, love watching him play. Mahomes does ridiculous things I haven't really seen other QBs do, throwing across his bodywhike running away from the receiver

There will be plenty and quite a few of my Niners friends will be there. I'll be at Kicks in Elizabeth St but if we win I may end up at Beer Deluxe who knows!

Look for the old bloke in the Young shirt and young bloke in the Kittle shirt. Happy to say hello.

Go Niners

It's weird that Kansas City is actually in Missouri...but anyway carry on my wayward sons...

Why is this game called Football?

1. Hired a phenomenal coach in Kyle Shanahan who had done a long and varied apprenticeship in many spots but hadn't got the credit he deserved due to concerns about nepotism, youth and failure to see how well he did in bad circumstances.

 

"The 49ers have 2 head coaches. Kyle Shanahan and his father Mike Shanahan" - Skip Bayless last week (leading US journo, the Slobbo of AFL)

I wonder if the narrative will be that Daddy helped coach Kyle win a superbowl if the SF win?

how much are they struggling for half time entertainment - J Lo and Shakira.

news flash - its not 2001!  and even in 2001 they were both rubbish!

How much are we struggling for sport to discuss - American “foot”ball!
Finding this post in the Melbourne Demons forum is like finding an anchovy on your meat lovers pizza. Surely it should be in the Other Sports forum (it only appeared here because of some very tenuous link to the MFC’s recent performance).

Why would you win the toss and defer and let the other team choose?

An extremely good question for which I have no answer

You get the ball in the second half. It’s often hard to score on the first drive of the game, better to have the ball to start after half time when you can make adjustments. Plus the team that defers often ends up with the ball to close the first half as well so you get 2 goes in a row either side of half time

Nope, only someone like Skip would go with that. No doubt Dad has played a role but this is Kyle’s team and game plan


And like that, it was [censored] away.

Just for once I picked the winner to support. What a great last quarter, did everything the could not manage in the first three.

49ers Choked

Rubbish the Chiefs fired up. 49's started posing for photos a quarter too early. One long term losing streak gone, one longer one to go!

The thing is, the niners would have been better last year if JG didn’t do his knee. 
Mahomes is called showtime for a reason, he just finds ways to win. 
Niners played well but like the Texans and Titans before them, it’s bloody hard to stop KC offensively, you need to score as much as them. Hence last year the Rams and KC played a 54-51 game. They. Just. Score.

They were having trouble protecting the quarter back for the first three quarters and could not get going. A bit better protection in the last quarter and WHAM.

But Mahomes still scrambled a lot, the Oline did a massive job on keeping Bosa under control all game really.

Good game

KC got the benefit of two close decisions which could have gone either way.

The half time entertainment was woeful. While the singers may be  very good their choice of songs and the over production using dancers left a lot to be desired.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
