“The Crush took to the pitch for the last time before the Championships of the Blitz Invitationals, and for Intrad, the last time...

The Crush kicked to start and the High Elves scored an easy touchdown in two turns. 1 - 0 Minas Tirith

But the Crush had a response and after caging up, the ball was handed off to Jurtive to score the touchdown to tie it up within three turns. 1 - 1

However, this gave the High Elves plenty of time to score back before halftime and badly hurt co-captain Ogrand, a guarding blitzer, in a foul. 2 - 1 Minas Tirith

The second half was mess as the Crush failed to put up an effective cage. Somehow, the ball popped to Zudd, the team's troll, but he fumbled the pass that would have scored a touchdown. Minas Tirith recovered and scored again on turn 16, but not before they had fouled the other co-captain Intrad and killed him earlier in the drive. The Greenfield Cursh's apothecary was unable to save him as he passed away into another realm. 3 - 1 Mians Tirith

Coach Oblitzamanger was too upset about losing one of his best players to be interviewed, although he did state that he was only mad at Nuffle and not at coach Kreideriese, who he thought played a good game. The funeral was private in the locker room and the bones were kept by the coach for later usage...

The Crush only earned 7 points for the Blitz Invitational, putting them square in the Crumbs match for sure. And without their co-captain and blodging blitzer, the team will be hard pressed to make it to the finals again this round, especially as the team was 10k short of buying his replacement before the tourney began.”
