“SWL Season XV - Premier League - Round 2

Well, much as I'd like to say Nuffle doesn't deserve those votes ... It's kinda true. The vermin suffered badly this match. It wasn't so much the double skulls that hurt, but the critical 1d rolls that ended in double 1s.

I stuck with the slow caging game all match ... which can be a little boring, but is usually effective. Symm did well to set himself up some chances, and I made a silly mistake near the end which *should* have ended in a vermin TD .. if it weren't for the double 1s...

On the other hand, the vermin didn't do half bad in the bashing department. Early in the match, they were up by 3 players, and possibly should have held off on the attempted TD (though a couple of 2+ rolls are still pretty good odds). They made some well placed fouls, and Matt Tinsen had a field day with 2 cas, and several KO in his 11 blocks for the match.

For now though ... it's back to the altar, where we'll be sacrificing several more goats to nuffle in a show of thanks that it was not us on the receiving end of the abysmal dice rolls suffered by the vermin.

------------------- Twahnlow Votes -------------------
3 pts - #3 Matt Tinsen
This fellow was a menace on the field. We never really got a decent chance to hit him, and he made a mess of our flimsy armour.

2 pts - #7 Ferdinand Porsche
One of the nasty gutter runners. Ferdinand stayed on the pitch for the duration of the game, setting up a coupld of decent chances to get the ball out. Sadly neither worked out.

1 pt - #10 Kaiser Wilhelm
The second key gutter runner. Always in the most effective places, Kaiser would have earned the 3 points easily if he hadn't let the team down with not just one critical mistake, but two, each of which ended up costing the Vermin a TD.”
