“The Lightnings won the toss and chose to receive first. Their initital attacked looked like it would progress in the usual manner, and it did so up until the second turn, when hey were turned over by a poorly-judged block. Fortunately, the ball was not under a serious immediate threat, and the Lightnings were able to recover and grind home a maiden touchdown for the latest bearer of the Hamnpork name. Damage Deluxe (DD) received the next kick, and made a push for the Lightnings' endzone, but their rush was halted by a blitz from Greasepit, leaving the ball loose. The Lightnings mobbed the ball, and a large and inconclusive brawl broke out, smothering the ball for the rest of the half.

The second half continued the trend in the Lightnings favour, as they twice stole the ball from DD and touched it down, both touchdowns going tommore junior members of the team, which will hopefully add to their confidence and the intensity of their training sessions.”
