We finally did it lads!
The Pirates of Bogwash have just completed 100 games in the box. This is the first team I have ever got to 100 games so wanted to record some of the achievements the Pirates's got along the way.
Match Records
So in 100 games our record is 20 wins /21 draws /59 losses. Not the greatest but what can you expect from stunty in the box.

So we managed to play against every team once but our first, and only match, so far against pro elves was our 100th game. So it took 100 matches to complete the goblin grid.
Our Players
In 100 games we have had alot of roster changes. There are currently no players from the original team still active.
Here is a list of our current players:
Our past players:
Broderick Greenbeard
Broderick Greenbeard (AKA 'Broders') was the teams first super goblin. When the crew started playing Blood Bowl he was inspired to become the best him could and make The Captain Proud. This extreme training lead him to becoming as agile and as strong as an elf but also small enough to dodge about anywhere he wanted. With these skills he quickly became a key player on the pitch.
Unfortunately during this blood game against The Dwarven Outcasts he was killed by the clawed monster JackHammer.
At the time of his death he was the first of the last 3 original team members to die after playing in 42 of the teams first 45 games. Although he never got any all time records his 'elf-like' stature will mean he is never forgotten.
Willy 'The Mad' Jangles
Willy was the crew's second fanatic. Prior to forming a Blood Bowl team it was the duty of one of the crew members to train in the art of the ball and chain and leap from the ship into the side of enemy vessels causing extensive hull damage to one or both of the ships!
He has been a member of the crew for many years now but was commonly found in the kitchens cooking meals. It wasn't until the death of the crew's fanatic Maxwell 'Tideturner' Larsa that Willy began training to become a fantic.
Willy joined the team in their 3rd game and played a total 32 matches until retiring after the teams 46th game. During his time with the crew he became stronger and more agile than most (ST7, AG4) so have decided to join the circus where he uses his skills to juggle cows.
Captain Arndale
Arndale was the crew's second Captain. He took over as Captain after the sudden death of Captain Sharktooth during the team's 6th game when Sharktooth had a sudden heart attack.
Arndale was Captain for 37 games and generally led his crew far from the action if possible. He only touched the ball once and never scored a touchdown, inflicted a casualty or intercepted a pass. Despite this the crew could not allow his death to go unpunished.
He was killed by the Ogre-Scientist Richard Feynogre during a series of matches to mark both The Pirates of Bogwash and Large Ogre CollidARRs' 50th matches. A bounty of $5000 has been placed on Richard's head by Little George.
Little George
Little George (the giant) was the team's star troll and possibly the teams most famous player of all time. At the time of his retirement he was the penultimate surviving member of the original team. He is most famously known for causing the teams first kill and also killing 2 players in one match!
He retired after the team 54th match after playing 51 of them. At his retirement he was all time blocker (303), casualties (25) and SPP (60).
He was injured by Haka from the team Under-Wraps during this match where even the God's cried tears for the entire game knowing it would be George's last. George is still part of the crew and can be found in the ship's Galley preparing meals which he brings to every one of the teams matches, proudly selling 'George's Goulash' from the stands.
Captain 'Cut-throat' Beatrice
Beatrice was the crew's 3rd Captain and 1st female member. She replaced Captain Arndale after his mysterious disappearance during an encounter with the ogre-scientists. After the match Beatrice was found redecorating the ship. She explained that she had won the ship in a game of cards with Richard Feynogre the previous night. She pulled a huge contract out of her pocket showed it to the crew, it quickly became obvious that none of them could actually read. Not wanting to look stupid in front of their new 'Captain', and honestly slightly confused why there was a woman on board, the crew accepted that she must now be in charge.
She was much more active on the pitch than her previous Captains, earning an MVP in her first game and even scoring a touchdown! Unfortunately she was forced to retire after 8 games when she tripped and smashed her hip. She has now bought a majority share in 'Tinselman Tapestries' after she told the crew 'maybe piracy isn't right for me'.
Captain "Douche" Nibbly
Nibbly was the crew's 4th Captain. After the success of Captain Beatrice noone is quite sure where Nibbly came from. There were rumours that he simply came from a rich Goblin family and paid his way into the position. Others suspect some kind of 'inside job'. Regardless of this Nibbly quickly gained the nickname "Douche" due to his complete inability to lead a crew of pirates.
It came as no surprise when he was seriously concussed during his first match and forced to retire. A blow to the head from the evil dwarf Belial III from the team (B)estias left him so confused he forgot everything except his name!
Lewie 'Crow's Nest' Cooper
Lewie isn't called 'Crow's Nest' because he was a particularly good lookout, rather, he was sent up there as punishment for 'pooping' on the poop deck by the ship's first mate Bray 'Iron Chest' Newbury. One of the cabinboy/trolls, Billy 'One Eye' Borrington, thought it would be useful to break Lewie's legs whilst he was up there so he wouldn't be able to come down and would stay as a permanent lookout forever.
He was forced to retire after he was jumped on by Botis II during this match against the short people known as (B)estias
Lewie was the longest surviving member of the original crew. He played in 60 of the teams first 61 games. At the time of his retirement he held the records for 7th oldest Box line-goblin and 24th oldest overall goblin player.
Captain Deadpool 'The Immortal'
Captain Deadpool 'The Immortal' was the crew's 5th Captin. Deadpool was cursed during an experiment by an eccentric witch that meant he could never be killed by another creature.He used his 'talent' to rise through the ranks of Bloodbowl players worldwide until he found himself Captain of The Reel Booty.
The curse proved to be true as he was never killed during all his years on the Bloodbowl pitch. He finally was forced to retire after he broke his arm whilst trying to dodge away from Kheyan during this especially bloody match against The Red Hunters.
Bouncing Bob
Bouncing Bob was a heck of a pogoer!
An executive decision was made after the teams 85th game against Undeadicace, when Bouncing Bob was injured by Joe DASSIN, that the team should return to its original strategy of playing without a pogoer.
At the time of his retirement Bob had played 38 games and held the ALL-Time records for: completions (2); touchdowns (20, #13 top goblin); spp (74); passing (11) and rushing (613, #8 top goblin).
Bob has since joined the teams extensive panel of celebrity coaches and can be seen pitchside shouting random insults at the opposing team.
Evil Dave
A legend was told that Dave was found as a youngling alone in the wreck of a ship covered in blood. From that point on looking into his eyes was said to drive men into madness, with many committing suicide.
As the team's first dedicated fouler he ended his career with both top fouls (138) and most MVPs (7) of all time for the Pirates. He was also 3rd top goblin fouler and got 4 confirmed kills for the team!
Dave was finally killed by Jindra of 11 Pact during this match. Many had previously tried, causing him multiple serious injuries during his long 63 match career, but Dave always found a way to carry on fouling!
In 100 games we have had alot of roster changes. There are currently no players from the original team still active.
Here is a list of our current players:
Our past players:
For those of you that don't want to add up that is:
69 - Goblin Linemen (including 6 different Captains)
7 - Trolls
3 - Pogoers
10 - Bombers
9 - Chainsaws
6 - Fanatics
That is a whopping 104 players meaning we on average replace 1 player per match!
Grunt Plankdancer
Grunt was the team's third troll and was recruited by Captain Arndale at a bar at Marienburg. He gained the name 'Plankdancer' after he was found dancing on the deck in the middle of the night wearing a tutu.
After playing in 34 of the teams 40 games Grunt suffered some serious injuries during his last 2 (-ag and -st) and was forced to retire from Blood Bowl thanks to the boot of Cyril "Barmy" Fotheringay-Phipps during this match against The Bone Raiders II.
At his retirement Grunt held the all time record for MVP (4) whilst also having a whopping 6 strength and 174 blocks.
Grunt is now the head coach for the cheerleading squad!

Our Most Memorable Past Players
Leaping Joe
Although it may not seem like it but Joe was actually not one of the original members of the crew. As you may have realsied pogo's are not something that pirates regularly have on their ships. Joe was actually recruited in the teams 6th game where they found him at at a circus in Los Cabos, Estalia. Captain Sharktooth saw the potential of having someone with the circus skills of Joe on the team. As it happened Joe took Sharktooth's number 10 when the captain 'stopped playing'.
Joe was killed by Harry Carson a dirty Skeleton from the team Showoff during this match.
When he passed away he had the all time records for: touchdowns (14); star player points (54) and rushing (345).

Thanks keggiemckill. Hope this bbcode makes sense.
There are 2 ways to do it:
1) [img title=PLAYERNAME/TEXT]/i/LINK TO IMAGE[/img]
2) [url=PLAYER-URL][picon=FUMBBL-ICON-NUMBER title=PLAYERNAME][/url]
I personally prefer option 2 but have used both in the blog above.
