“Two depleted sides took the field in what was going to prove another bad day at the office for the Tails.

Despite receiving, a needless fall on a GFI saw the game swing the Orcs way and they promtly hammered their way down the field leaving a trail of bodies in their wake. The second half saw only 7 Skaven return to the pitch and even they were heavily bandaged after a bruising first period. An opening Blitz saw the Skaven get in behind the Orc line and despite taking some hits Monk managed to scoop up the ball and run it home for his first ever TD.

Suddenly victory was possible.

Chaucer huddled the team together during a time out as they prepared for the kick-off. Words of encouragement? We'll never know but the last rats standing seemed fired up as they lined against the10 Orcs. Despite some hits they again penetrated the line but just couldnt force the turn over and the Orcs looked like running in the winner.

The green beast with the ball went for the line and tripped, causing panic on the Orc bench. But for some excellent marking and positional play it could have been a nightmare, the Tails simply couldn;t break free of their opponents to pick up the ball and run it to safety.

A pick up and pass saw the Orcs score their second and winer in the 8th turn, a little late but victory nonetheless.

Hard on the Tails as they played superbly despite the number disadvantage and could have had a deserved draw. An excellent game!!!”
