Carlton to win by 4-5 goals. Collingwood are pathetic. Look at their line up, it's horrible... Their key position stocks rival VFL standard, Dunn down back is really their only "tall" then injury prone Reid & Mason Cox up forward, lol. Can't wait to see them smashed.. Honestly can't see them getting within 4 goals

??? All I was saying was when their back up Brown goes into the ruck Frost will more often than not will take ruck duites...

Correct... When Brown goes in so will Frost. Simple.

At this stage of the week I'm thinking this: IN: Frost (as others have stated, allows us to free up Lever. Without Frost it leaves us with Waite & Brown Vs Oscar & Lever, no real room to move if one gets a hold of us) OUT: Hunt (Has been disappointing the first 2 weeks, has looked all over the place.. Panicked a few times down back & gave away some unnecessary free kicks and also hasn't had his usual run & gun. Send him to Casey & let him find the footy & dominate a game)

Lose tonight & it's season over.. Simple. Serious finals sides don't lose games like this.

There is no coincidence our best wins under Goodwin have been when we have kicked the ball more & not overused the handball... Totally agree with Plough

Your 100% spot on WB. When sides get a run on we can not stop it.. We never seem to be able to posses the footy, chip it round a bit & slow the game down. Geelong did it to us multiple times yesterday, I don't know what it is & why we can't do it but all last year I had noticed it & it happend again yesterday. Our foot skills aren't great which may be the reason we can't play "keepings off" to stem the tide

Absolute disgrace... Smith & the rest of the leadership group must be stood down & not played in the next test. Screw the series even if we can potentially draw it in the 4th. Funnily enough I was told from an inside source Renshaw didn't get along with Smith & co and wasn't "one of the boys" maybe they'vetried it on him before & he stood up to them and said no, maybe that's why he was left out pre ashes.

Hannan will play, he's forward pressure is what our plan of creating forward half turnovers. INT: Tyson, Brayshaw, Hannan, Melksham

The club isn't going to know how Viney or anyone for that matter responds when they ramp up their training... I'm sure 2 weeks ago the aim was round 1 for Viney. He joins in full training & pulls up sore, how can the club know how he'll pull up & respond. Same with TMac, he missed the last JLT with the hope he'll respond with 2 weeks rest & clearly he hasn't & now the best course of action is to be cautious & rest it... They could miss 12+ weeks until they join in training & pull up fine no'one will know

So I'm a telstra customer so I get the free AFL app subscription, does anyone know anyway you can stream from your phone to the tv in full screen ? Even using an apple tv ? My alternative is, my parents have foxtel so can I use the foxtel now app to stream to my tv through their account ? I'll watch Melbourne interstate games at their place just wondering about other games It's bull[censored] otherwise. Why doesn't the AFL make the app for $100-$150 for the season & you can stream to your tv in full. They'd make a killing.

The crown part may have stemed from that. Who knows where it'll end up, that many deals would go down behind the scenes no'oe outside the AFL would know, Leathlan may have been paid to shut up or the AFL helped him get the St.Kilda job to keep quiet. All I know as of 2 weeks ago I was told he was leaving.

I'v heard from 2 different sources within the AFL Gill will be "stepping down" most likely to take a role at crown.

Got very good inside info Gill wont be around much longer... AFL trying to work out the best way to get him out without suspicion. There was more to the Simon Lethlean story then reported.

Great stuff @Dappa Dan enjoy it! Very well deserved, who'd have thought when Wentz went down this would be the ending!

Out of the tipping race but I'll tip anyway! Eagles 24 Pats 23 What I'm hoping for Eagles down 29 - 3 & win

Vikings 17 @ Eagles 13 Jags 23 @ Patriots 20

Man I do envy you, it was great this time last year! I know the feelings... I was worried, nervous, sick, excited, happy all at the same time. Was an overwhelming feeling when I knew we were going to make it to the SB... Just enjoy it!

It's a tough one... I'd go the Saints purely because your offense would move the ball eaiser on their D rather than the Vikings

He could have just wrapped him up in a tackle & it would have been over.. They wouldn't of had time to get to the line & clock the ball for a FG attempt. All he litreally had to do was hold him up where he was & the Saints win the ball game

Oh my god... Just when you think you've seen it all in this sport

Jags, wow. Anytime to go into Pittsburgh & win is big but to do it in a playoff game.. Hats off to them. Congrats Clint. I actually think the Jags defense could give the Pats & Brady some trouble. Just shows as others have posted above, all our teams(I think) in this forum have had some recent success as in making the playoffs in the last 2 seasons alone... Would be hard to say the same about the AFL with a group of different supporter bases.

Yeah in hindsight we are 11-0 when we score 20 & now 0-7 when we don't, so looking back scoring 20 on that eagles defense in those conditions at home would have always been a struggle. Our biggest problem all year has not been able to convert in the redzone so fitting that's how our season ended. That FG on half time hurt, should have been an interception & maybe 3 to us. Also that shovel pass on 2nd & goal on the last drive, wtf was Sarkisian thinking... I'm not too angry about it, I never really thought it was going to be our year

I can't trust Bortles but if your defense can get some takeaways & points like they did in week 5 against the Steelers than you'd be a huge chance.. Guessing Bell will be a bit factor so nullifying the run and forcing big Ben into throwing will be a bit factor. I'll be cheering the Jags on, good to see different sides contending & us fellow demons need to stick together so some of us can experience some success

@Dappa Dan thoughts on this weekend at Philly ? Reckon the Eagles will hit the Falcons with the run. Ajayi ran shreds through us early in the year with Miami... I reckon the noise about Foles is a bit over the top, yeah he's no wentz but he's no slouch. The falcons record against back up QBs since I started follwing them has been horrendous. As the week goes on the less confident I've got.
