“A rather one sided match at times, which I think hurt the resolve and morale of my opponent - possibly ruining some of his enjoyment. Nuffle was just not with him for most of the game. Unable to match the pace of the ratmen, the goblins herded their two trolls into the centre to force their way through the centre. Unfortunately, 'Stinky' and 'Dirty' must have got tired towards the end as they failed stupidity rolls with a spectacular series of 1s.

Those goblins can be very slippery indeed. Neither 'Ravin Face' nor any of my usual scrappers in the centre could land any kind of serious blow on the little greenskins. Fortunately for me Darkklaw was once again on form. Famous for his Cathay-trained ninja-like abilities, this gutter runner scored an impressive 3 touchdowns, using his 10MA to full effect.

I enjoyed the game, and it is a shame my opponent didn't. I wouldn't like to be against him without the blessing of Nuffle.”
