“A valiantly fought game with a badly reduced roster by the Banditos; if the rats had been at full strength I suspect we'd have had a very different game.

Victory is bittersweet however, as we lost Gunzing Stoneskull who fell bravely attempting to contain the rat ogre Colby Jack. The Boulders tried many times to remove Colby from the pitch (including playing a much dirtier game than our usual wont) but to no avail and the young linedwarf paid the ultimate price. We dedicate this victory, and the first keg at the post-game celebration, to his memory. The second keg will be dedicated to welcoming rookie Ogre Thudd Earthshaker to our team.

Thanks for the well wishes, Jason. We'll do our best to bring honor to Div III in the next round (and to figure out what it is our fans want. Lost fan factor in every one of my games so far!)”
