“In this clash of Titans, the Champion were beaten by the Upstarts!

The game was very exciting and featured uncharacteristic coaching errors both ways:

(i) After a blitz by Farscape and a short kick, the pressure was being piled onto the Sippers. A careless misclick on a block led to a turnover, compounding the pressure and allowing Farscape to take the football early!
(ii) Despite the above, careless positioning led to Bilair Crais being crowd surfed and badly hurt, missing the rest of the game! Which led to an almighty ruck and no score at the half!
(iii) In the 2nd the Sippers set up very deep, which I believe was a mistake. The key to beating Khemri is to kick deep and pile the pressure on. Hopefully you can divide the team into the backfield and the LOS mummies. If the backfield drops the ball once then they are in for a world of hurt! Should the ball carrier meet up with the mummies, however, all hope is lost.

As it was, Farscape ground their way down the field, sending mass Orc bodies to the injury boxes. Some reported that the Orcs were all too eager to leave the field and get back to their Moonshine supplies!

A late score left insufficient time for the Sippers to retaliate, and they went down fighting, 1-0. Can they bounce back from their terrible start as reigning champions? One thing's for sure, there are plenty of games to be played yet!

Good game dude! I enjoy playing you most of all because it's always fun, and nobody gets upset over anything! And the games are always close!
