Was a strong 17 tho

Would assume most serious teams would have played him......I hope.

..in nsw cup

I'm loving Billy Smith.

Two guys in my head to head had to loop him in because Ilias scored 17, and he scored less, then I look across and my no17 is Leniu on the menu with his big fat 53.

Manly went on a tear last year based on Turbo's 'greatest ever season', which in turn was due to the six-again rule.
Once they got the upper hand and momentum, tiring defenders had no way of stopping him.
The Storm in the finals (typical Bellyache genius) worked out how to shut him down, Panthers and now Chooks have simply copied the plan.
The slight change to the six-again also meant middles aren't as tired. 
Des had better put his mad-genius brain into action and work out a new way for Manly's attack to find tries.

They don't have Taupau any more either, really.

Yeah all my head to heads have Bully, including me. On the upside I got Leniu's points, but those are two headaches I will need to deal to soon.

First game last week. Some people like the buzz of being first on the ladder at any point in the season, I guess.

Bully in the EMG

Fuck Me, Right?

Pretty sure AL is an Alt

Edwards scored 20pts at 80mins (0.25PPM) and lost cash
Bullemor scored 17pts at 32 minutes which is (0.53PPM) and still made cash
Bully as NPR is an easy trade if needed

#Pickyourbattles

Edwards might get nice and cheap in the next few weeks, could be a great pickup

My score is looking like an England batting card. 5/135

Can't remember a worse start to a round in a long time.

Al's HaasHoles has been one of the top-performing FOG teams for years, if you ever look at that end of the table.

Current score 5/185.
Well the Bludgers have come crashing back to earth.

Oh are we all picking on Matt again?

I mean, if he was going to be right about Bully, then he certainly shouldn’t have the audacity to say so. He’s been wrong about other things so this doesnt count! What a fucking asshole.

Making me feel better about my 5/169 (decent partnership for the sixth wicket before being skittled out)

You can’t spell Alt without Al.

6 /281

Hunt you ripper

Bullemore is getting traded this week

Des says Turbo is 100%, no injury concerns

On reflection, yes it was clear that Bullemor would only get 32 minutes with two edges on the bench when one of those edges is a hooker and the other replaced an outside back an hour before kickoff. The thinking was sound and it's fair to highlight it when everyone is annoyed about this entirely foreseeable outcome.
