Have you seen Mayfield’s security throughout his career !?

Yep. But I think he’s a different player now.

Plus I’m talking about tomorrows game exclusively. I have doubts on the Lions ability to generate takeaways.

Lions easy Moops.

I don’t care for them. Or anyone else for that matter. I think they should re locate to Des Moines.

No chance. Kevin Costner and his Field Of Dreams baseball team owns that state!

I don’t care for him either. He should re locate to Botswana.

What? Showing disrespect to the great Lt. John Dunbar? Shame on you Red.

One of the great Americans.

Botswana is a great country too btw. Very enjoyable but expensive for tourists who like to do safari in fine style.

Hope DJ Jazzy Pete doesn’t read your disparaging remarks!

He’s not a very good actor. And Dunbar is a fictional character which, I wish Costner was too. But unfortunately he is real, which is why we need to send him to Botswana.

Mayfield will f it up. Just watch.

Yep, ignore what he did against us in the wild card game.

We made spuds like Drew Lock & Tyrod Taylor look like Dan Marino & John Elway this year.

God, that movie was a snore fest.

Thing about the Whiners is that they still have a massively unhealthy reliance on McCaffrey.

If he has a bad game then there's a chance Brock might turn into a pumpkin when its all on his shoulders.

 

[Redford]

God, that movie was a snore fest.

Tin Cup was worse. That’s one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen.

 

[Mopsy]

God, that movie was a snore fest.

Yep it was crap.

But the peeps of Iowa loved it coz it gave them, in their eyes, relevance for 5 mins!

Ignore at your peril TST.

Lions have given up more average yards through the air this year than the Eagles.

I really want the Lions to win but for them to do so it may have to be in a shoot out scenario.

Best way for the Lions to win, for mine, will be to lean heavily on the run game. Win the time in possession battle and they will be half way there.

Watched the Barry Sanders doco on Netflix last night. I think Rice mentioned it a few weeks back.

I have tipped the Bucs tomorrow but really hope the Lions prevail. Their fans deserve the joy of just going to the Championship game, regardless of the result.

When I jumped off the Niners when Jarryd Hayne was signed I went looking for a team similar to Richmond. Landed on the Chiefs with their loud passionate fans and at that stage lack of any recent meaningful success. Could just have easily chosen Detroit.

Go Lions, in Dan we trust!!

Probably the most liked player from fans of other teams man. Shame he didn't have more success.

There's the new doco 'Bye Bye Barry' where he talks about his reasons he retired. Then there's the 'A Football Life' one that shows up on 7Mate a couple of times a year

I'll go Lions tomorrow but not next week man

And ride with my My Homes boy against the Dills

Yeh, reckon you nailed it when you called out their secondary early in the year. It's pretty poor.

Purdy was good when it counted but he could of thrown a few picks. Love was poor when it counted.

I thought Greenlaw was gonna have the ball punched out!

As you suggested recently, there really is no outstanding team. Any of the remaining 6 could win and it would not surprise.

The 9ers will struggle if they face the Bills, Allen could tear that secondary apart. But he could also throw 4 picks!

Secondary groups are not the same as the past, I guess the throwing game and yardage gained has taken over the game compared to the past keep the ball and run, run, maybe throw.

But definitely Niners have been weak there close to 30 years man, I haven't liked it through the Harbaugh good years and Kyle's as well

I miss Turtle Neck Merton Hanks at free safety or safety That neck when he did his chicken dance, you'd think the head was about to come off!

Talking about merchandise the other day, these beauties rocked up at home yesterday.
They're a Bolivian soccer team I picked up on the flash scores app about 3-4 years ago.
You can't go wrong with a yellow and black top that says THE STRONGEST on it and the club nickname is the Tigre. And they're leading the Bolivian League

And the beauty of the tshirts that say 'The Strongest' on them is that "Est. 1908".

Now we all know Richmond's first year in the old VFL was in 1908 Going to enjoy wearing them to the footy this year man

Monty,

We have to get over to Bolivia man and watch The Strongest play Imagine that whole stadium rocking in Black and Yellow

And check out the last 2 pics below, they've got white goal posts out there, we could have a kick off our Aussie footy after the game

Has anyone been to a South American sporting event or elsewhere if so, like European soccer or college football, that the crowd were as crazy as crazy lol

I'd still like to have the experience I've heard of like River Plate v Boca Juniors in Argentina, the stadium goes off during a game.

Other than Randall Cunningham (who was the reason I started following the Eagles way back in 1992), Sanders was my favourite player ever.

Never celebrated a TD. The man was all business.

I think Baltimore are the clear standout

After he ended up in the end zone, he'd turn around, hand the ball back to an official. No spiking the ball or celebration. Classy

He would have got the crowd up on their feet if he became a Super Bowl winner, and they're all demanding him to spike the ball on the stage after the game and at the winners' rally

 

[Ricemagic]

Redmond,

Even the coach was riding him galloping around like he wanted to get a TD

 

[Ricemagic]

Wow!! Even through the Ray Lewis years and fluky Falco they never hosted a championship game
