“The Crusaders failed to score the 2-1 at the end of the first half by just one GFI. The preceding turnover was a gift by the Monarchs, who didn't concentrate sufficiently during the entire first half.
During the second half, supported by breath- and lifetaking blocks, the team from Minas Tirith eventually managed to cleanse the field by removing defining Wasteland players from the pitch (Kaelan Stronghoof's foul appearance will never be seen on pitches again and Igrom Whitemane's promising career is most likely over for good). Casually stalling it out, the Monarchs advance to round 2 where they will meet an extremely strong Chaos Dwarf side which might very well retire several Gondorian players.
“Orca-Cola Cup - round 1 of the Amorical Regional Playoffs
Very nice game - despite being clubbered rather badly. I guess it's that Kharma thing people talk about - we had this one coming.
A re-build of the team seems in order and we hope to be back next month though possibly in a lower TR category.
Farinroderel was a very pleasent opponent and played his humans well though I guess a one handed monkey could have beat me today.
It was actually a pretty tense match - despite suffering 2 early injuries (including a Niggle that our apoth failed to heal) it almost looked as if though the game was in the bag for the Crusaders and could walk home with a 3-1 victory if they played it safe. It was not to be however as evidenced by the score.
Very good fun alround despite tension lacking in the last quarter of the game.
Re-match anytime, Far. I WILL be back ;)”

Cheers to RedFish and btw: I am a monkey! ;)”
