NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 21 - Nothing but Cleary

Fifita still 42
Sexton still 26
Tualagi down 4 to 25

At least DaFita didn’t lose any points. That’s about the time only good thing to come out of that game

Just catching up, fuck me that was a punishing watch.

Glad I had Tuilagi in the loop. Worth looping in Coates, right?

2/52.

Cheers Sexton and Clark.
I’m sure Sexton will make up for it in the future but Clark is gone next week to Jones quite possibly

Benefits of owning Cleary have already shown themselves.

I had the C on Sexton before I brought him in so that’s a big pro

Bet you got that sinking feeling.

Anyone know why Tuilagi came off after 41 mins? (Missed the game)

Favourite comments from the r/nrl thread:


We may be witnessing history here boys, The worst game of all time

This game reminds me of that mostly dry, but still kinda damp shirt you put on because you have nothing else to wear. But it has that weird damp smell all day and you can't get rid of it and are self conscious and annoyed by it.

Coming off a 12 hour shift at the bottom of a mine and this is what I get to come home and watch. I’m going back to the mine.

Broadcasters love Tigers games because they can sell more ad space where the highlights would usually go.

Those high definition close ups of the turf make the ground look fucking amazing. Which is an incredible contrast to the actual footy which has been complete dogshit

If you think you hate your job, just spare a thought for the guy at NRL who has to make a "highlights" and "extended highlights" video for this match

I swear im going to mention this game in my suicide note

The key to grubbering in goal is to kick it as hard as you physically can

Madge looking like he walked in on some dude ploughing his wife.

I feel dumber for having watched that half and I'm now so dumb I am going to watch the next 40.

Do dally m points still get handed out for this game? If so are the viewers considered for watching all 80 mins

Left wrist, arm or shoulder complaint. He grabbed at all of them - commentators said shoulder, but could've come back on. Perhaps a nerve hit. Should be good next week - certainly staying in my team (NPRs tho)

Will be a nice trade in if you can get him before he strings together 4 or 5 full games

I am feeling a bit silly that I last minute reversed my Fifita > Mann trade in light of the Fermor news.

I guess the positive part is that it's better to make a mistake not trading, than the mistake of trading. Sure I lost some cash, probably some points, but at least I kept my precious trade.

He watched first half highlights and refused to come back out

I know that it will vary, but for those that have experienced symptoms of Omicron, do you expect that it is likely to impact players coming back the week after being diagnosed?

Grant and Jones watch

That game could of been an email


"Mr. V’landys, what I’ve just watched... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever watched. At no point, in that error-riddled, migraine inducing shit fest, was it even close to anything that could be considered a first grade NRL match. Everyone who tuned in is now dumber for having watched it. I award both teams no points, and may God have mercy on our souls."

There is a quest in Oblivion where a man requests you to take his life, since he just can not take the ugliness of the world anymore. You can do it however you want, but you can push him off a high place and he lands in open sewerage. I thought that would be the worst thing to happen, drowning in shit. after watching this game. i stand corrected.

I'd imagine Madge has left a note on a lone chair in the middle of the dressing room that reads, "Gone for milk. Don't wait up."

David Fifita: “they are a quality side” Holy shit

Don’t show anyone from the CIA this game because they’ll start using it in Guantanamo Bay for torture

Fotuaika just tells JT that he blacked out for a moment and didn’t need a HIA. Probably not a clever thing to publicize.

This is nothing but a mild cold for me. I did get gassed walking the delivered shopping up 3 flights of stairs though. Also, I’ve been vaping the entire time I’ve been sick.
Doubt it will effect people for longer than a week post sickness

Who could have thought that suring up your side with Mahoney Crichton and Fifita to start the season off was actually a shithouse play? Fantasy is a cruel game innit

Good point well made

Basically Fifita made 1 good run in the opening 10 minutes of the all-star game, and then decided that would tide him over until July

Paul Vautin was asked to give 3-2-1 for the game, and he gave the points to the other commentators.
