The game started pretty much as the Boys expected, with the Orcs receving, caging, and powering downfield, bashing elves left right and centre. The Delfs tried a few suicidal attempts to stop the green surge, but to no avail, and by Turn 8 had 5 elves left on the field.
Then Nuffle stepped in - instead of scoring immediately in turn 8, the orcs decided to "go on the bash" some more, and up popped a triple skull - no RR. A lesson for us all there.
0-0 at the half.
Delfs, back to 9 for the second half, receive and work it down the left, aided by skulls for a BoB. Score in turn 2.
1-0 turn 10.
Delfs kick - Blitz - ball too deep, but we run and screen anyway. Then the orcs bugger it up again with a both down on a blockless BoB. Delfs rush in, get the ball, and stall until turn 14 before scoring.
2-0, turn 14.
Orcs receive, set up the gobbo bomb, which fails in Turn 16.
Thx Sysiphos - tragic luck really. Thanks again for running the league.”
“hmmm... the orcs lost against the boys... thats bad news sportfans...
Outbashing and heavy stalling in the first half after receiving didnt help. A triple skull right in the last turn ended the drive... reminder to myself: never, really never do this again.
Elfs scored fast in half 2 after i rolled both down 4 times with a blodgeless bob...
Then a blitz rounded the game up...
Pythrr played well as soon as he had the ball... c ya in finals and good luck in the remaining matches mate!”
