#1 Fenogle – Dead (RIP)
The Gnash took to the pitch and got bashed into the ground and got little money for it. Had Fenogle, the team's dodging werewolf, not been killed, the winnings would have been sufficient to bring their numbers to 14. Now, they would be lucky to get 11 players on the pitch.

They were lucky to get the tie too. Clawmide's knee was bothering him too much to play in the match and he niggled out. Somehow, the team scored after Sollong, a tackling Wight, blitzed downfield, pratically exposed the whole way down carrying the ball. He knocked down a foe then dodged to score with a go for it. 1 - 0 Graveyard Gnash

The elves ran around a bit before a hole opened up for the Gnash to get the ball back. But Smashine, the captain and guarding flesh golem, tripped up on a go for it with a re-roll which prevented the stop of the ball. From then on, it was a simple matter to score back. However, Fenogle, trying valiantly to stop the touchdown, dodged and blitzed the ballcarrier. They both went down, but Fenogle had been killed! The elf simply got back up and scored on the next turn. 1 - 1

By halftime, the apothecary had been used and two elves badly hurt as well. But that didn't stop them.After a small skirmish when the ball was popped loose, Smashine was badly hurt on a one dice block, causing a turnover. Even though he regenrated, the Gnash was not able to recover losing him from the pitch, so the Paladins scored again. 2 - 1 Laurentian Paladins

With only three turns to go, the Gnash caged up around Gregolio, a ghoul, and somehow, he managed to get far enough downfield safely to let him loose and dash for the tying touchdown. 2 - 2

After the game, Sollong learned how to strip the ball off opponents, but he was feeling an aching pain in his upper back due to his age, giving him a niggling injury. Coach Oblitzamanger needs just 40k more to buy Fenogle's replacement, but with two nigglers and one werewolf, the team is not in good shape at all. They need some recovery time before they can play in the Blitz Invitational, which they earned 15 points for. But at such a low TR/TS now, they really have little to no chance of winning it this round either.

Coach Oblitzamanger and his team were unavailable for interviews after the game. They solenmly went back into the dugout and held a funeral survice for Fenogle in the lockeroom. Coach Oblitzamanger was most dissapointed of them all as it meant rough times ahead for his team.

There was a rumor that Princess Miranda was going to be in attendance for this game. Rumor has it she has a disturbing fascination for those afflicted with lycanthropy.

To the disappointment of the sixty thousand fans in attendance, only one werewolf lined up on the pitch. The first half started well, with the Gnash methodically plowing their way up through the mid-field. The Paladins darted in and out and threw the occasional block but were content to merely jostle their opponents. It was a bit of a surpise to the Elfs when all of a sudden the Wight Sollong burst through the thin elf line, made a dodge. a few seconds of frantic sprinting and scored to put the Gnash up 1-0.

The Paladins received the kick-off and as usual spread out downfield. Covered well by the Gnash, it was only thanks to a viscious collision between Paladin catcher Cyclone Dancingfist and Fenogle, in which the werewolf ended up dead with a silver elbow spike piercing his skull as the two tumbled on the ground that the Paladins were able to tie.

The second half saw the Paladins continue to concentrate on their fundamentals as their coach barked instructions to them. Moving downfield in a rushing formation, they met stiff Gnash resistance, and only another Gnash casualty freed up the necessary space needed, and even then it was a long pass to the receiver standing in the end zone.

Not wanting to dent their armor any worse than it was, the elfs attempted to envelop the Gnash's next drive, trying to keep at arm's length. Like a relentless octupus the Gnash drove forward, until their well-set up cage allowed ghoul Gregolio to stroll into the endzone to tie the game.

After the game, four elfs gained skills. Thanks to the coachs background in track and field, and his insistence on daily wind sprints, two players gained movement bonuses (6+4 roll) and another turned down a (5+5) similar advancement in order to work on his upper body (guard). Another elf learned enough from his time on the line of scrimmage to not get knocked down as much in the butting of heads (block).

If the Paladins can draw Princess Miranda to watch their games, then there must be really something there. (+1 ff)

As the Gnash team uncharacteristically turned down the post-game brunch and formal dance to shuffle and mourn the loss of Fenogle in their lockeroom, the Paladins feasted on tasty Hot-Buns, flirted with their cheerleaders and did the mambo in good spirits.
