NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 70 - the Happy Birthday Random thread

It's only the Knights though, and after the Dragons next week his draw gets bad. If you held then good on you but I still think he's a sell after next week.

I know we are at the pointy end of the season but I think you're underestimating him. Only had one score under 30 since his debut. For a WFB in the worst team in the comp, that's some feat.

Lucky for the Tigers Bula is good, because the rest of their backline is a bit rubbish

I don't think he'll get much over 35s in his games after next week, aside from one or two maybe.

Yeah icecream is also fun to watch! Sticking my spoon in him for now and will keep licking.


... that didn't end up reading as well as I thought it would hahaha

Who doesn't love a creamy Bula?

Good game in the end, felt a bit like watching a couple of drunks scrapping in a carpark at 3am
Still entertaining

Great game by Bula too:

Ch9 advertising Nathan Cleary as back this week. Is that better than word from the shire

Yeah this

I was one of the 467, but it was more I didn’t have worse options to sell for upgrades than Bula being bad. Think he was a borderline keeper before this game, and still is.

Big play from IPap and still only 53. Yeet

Did they? Thought they all said if he's named at 24 then he'll play. Guesswork.

In the top 2k for the first time ever

Yeah the bloke really isn't making enough tackles weirdly

Agreed Booze.
The Knights may have won the game but their ball control and stupid rushed decisions are gonna cost them.
I'm going to the match v. the Storm and I'm not looking forward to the spanking my team is about to cop.
I reckon AOB will be furious (regardless of the win).

From a Fantasy perspective, I had Ponga, Bula, Batman, Papali'i & Tommy T (Emg) in that game, so it's all good for a Friday night.

Got what I deserved with Talau but very happy with Ponga/Paps/Bula

Up to you but for what it's worth I haven't considered trading Tedesco for a second.

Yeah that’s probably sensible. If VTW drops out in the 24 hour cut tomorrow though I’m going to be very tempted to go Cook and Teddy to DCE and Grant

Can’t believe it was him or Bateman for slightly less, and I went iPap. Not the worse call ever, but one of the more frustrating 50/50s

I did the same in the same week. Meh

Lagging behind on any kind of break too, just relying on him to make those breaks like tonight or close to the line, but we'd prefer to drop it before it gets there.

Bula keeps bringing in the moolah!

2/138 thanks to Bateman, Ponga and my very smart decision to trade Bula and hedge against a cash loss.
