NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 72 - Bursting the COVID bubble

Jeez if you started out with this guy and held on you've got to be pretty happy with your year in Fantasy so far. The gift that keeps giving, personified.

I'm not one of this forum's Fantasy high rollers, more of a Reno guy than a Vegas whale.

But Tino has been amazing over the last few weeks. One of my best decisions this year was picking Tino in Round 1.

Would you care if Souths weren't playing Broncos tonight

But Cleary got 105 after updates so might need a new paint job

Absolute masterpiece!

I dare say the NRL bubble rules are forever being changed and updated along with each states covid rules. So being in QLD they probably have a little bit more freedom than the Sydney clubs would.

EDIT: I rescind my comment after reading this https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/08/07/langer-among-three-broncos-stood-down-over-biosecurity-breach/ if Alfie is being stood down for having a "few" people at a private function at the Caxton for his birthday.

Exactly my point, if Alfie and some staff are stood down for breaking the NRL bubble Covid rules then Fifita and Ofa have broken them too.

You’re allowed to eat out in restaurants in NSW as long as you’re socially distancing and the venue/restaurant doesn’t go over how many are allowed in etc...... so really what Wayne did is no worse to what the Broncos staff and Fifita and Ofa have done.

What I’m talking about is to keep the NRL going V’Landy’s and co came up with a set of rules that all clubs had to follow, why should Brisbane players be exempt from that?

It’s also not law in NSW that you can’t eat out. Bennett didn’t break the law of what the NSW government set he broke the NRL Covid bubble rules........

Jeez, that banner is a beauty.

Did enough to knock me out of the eliminator last week mate. I was cruising until Tino stepped on the field

Dude.

THE RULES ARE DIFFERENT FOR QLD TEAMS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN TO SYDNEY WITHIN 14 DAYS.

Fifita and ofa havent broken any bubble rules.

To be honest I am fuming that Tino is doing so well... He is already 600K+ and going to be way too awkwardly priced to bring in next year!

Melbourne Storm

UPDATE | To clear up some misinformation that has been circulating recently, Storm is currently on stage two NRL Project Apollo restrictions. These restrictions differ to those currently enforced on NSW-based clubs.

Eh, just another semi-gun that will fall at some point and we can debate endlessly before jumping on.

Updated to correct score

Yeah, we have next to no restrictions left up here, fortunately for us. They haven't done anything wrong especially since they haven't been outside QLD.

Well if that’s the case why are Alfie and 2 others stood down?

Beautiful.

This is what art is all about. Emotion. Brings a tear to the eye.

WTF is that vomit

For clarification, what was the difference in terms of the rules between Langer and Fifita?

They haven't been setting him up to run through a gap all season.
