Kansas City are about to break a 50 year premiership drought and win the Super Bowl.

It can be done!

Only if you're a good team.

The Chiefs are a good team.

We're not.

Not until we have the AFL version of Pat Mahomes lining up at CHF for us.

considering mahomes is the driving force engine room of the team
I thinking more like in the middle

CHF is more like the flashy wide receiver

It was a great game and a magical result.

I had an extremely enjoyable day. And the weather was balmy, -11C and sunny.

Didn't matter who won. 49ers would have broken a 25 year drought!

I disagree Rodger Fox.

I believe St.kilda will make the top 8 and are a chance for a top 4 finish if they have a bit of luck with precious few injuries and no significant ones.

The shackles of Alan Richardson are off and the players will be very switched on.

I can see St.kilda surging much like Brisbane did last year.

St.kilda will finish above Geelong and Essendon.

You’d think I’d be used to heartbreak as a Sainter but this loss has just smashed me. Why Kyle abandoned the run - especially after what happened to him in SB 51 - no Niner fan can understand. Just a complete shock that we lost that game

I agree Stevie.

It was a magical storybook game for The Chiefs but they had some really lucky calls. (Hitting Garoppolo in the face during the sack in the fourth and the umps calling "after the play had finished" was crucial).

I said to my wife the next day "It was a good game but I still can't work out how SF lost it."

BTW Everyone here was rooting for the 49ers because the Chiefs beat us in our first Bowl when we were 12 point favorites.

The biggest issue was the zero holding penalties all game Shanny predicted this The refs get told not to clog the spectacle

Bosa was being held a lot but the killer non call was on the 44 yd conversion on 3rd and 15 That was the turning point for all that followed Anyway it’s done and we have to live with it

It’s interesting watching how different sports decide what is and isn’t fair in a marking/catching contest. I generally feel the NFL is a bit picky, like with Kittle’s catch at the end of the 2nd quarter, I thought it was beautiful use of strength to keep the other bloke off him!

Yeah the NFL rules on catching a mess, Dud. The receiver isn’t allowed to use an arm to create seperation But the defender here is not looking at the ball so that’s wrong too And an identical situation happened in the Vikes/ Saints playoff game the other week for the game winning Td and it was ruled fine! And so it should’ve been. My boys coulda been up by 7 with a minimum of 3 at HT if this catch is ruled ok
