They have their Rotar Divedrum mng, but come with 15 players. We 14.
Handicaps for us VIRUS (no niggles), and SMELLING SALTS.

We manage to KO two dark elfs first turn. They dont get anyone down T2 and wait for me making a mistake. I do, chosing blitz instead of movement I spoil my only blocking opportunity T2. Still, they are a bit to concentrated on trying go crowd two of our blitzers, and we are able to run through later on. Score turn 6 since I did a horrible stall attempt, combined with their ag5 player close by. They have a bad start following the kick as Trudy withstands three blocks on her, and even steals a rr from them as they block with a blockless player, untill she finally goes down, as does all of our three LOS-players. They concentrate a lot of people to foul a black orc same turn, and then only get one in position during T7 - their ma9 blitzer. We blitz him and they cant score.

Second half, and both teams are just as they were at the start of the game - a typical game for my orcs, we hardly ever do any harm :). They have a bad start, cant even foul anyone except my unskilled blitzer as he is the only who goes down in 7-8 blocks (he is not even stunned). We put some pressure on them but they manage to spot a mistake in our defense and take good use of it. Fouling their ma9 blitzer to a niggle (apo works) scares them from stalling - they score turn4. Heat strikes on one of our black orcs and on three of their players (they still field 11 though). We have a nice start, but make a hole so they, using a blitz can put some pressure on our ball carrier. I find a nice way out of it, but they I a black orc just where he is not suppose to be, so I can not chain push myself to freedom. Luck is with me though, and I can run through. Try to stall, and Alibaba does a great play making me drop the ball, still, this time i manage to not screw up the chain push, I can recover the ball and score last turn.

Fun game!! I was a bit lucky, and didnt deserve it as I keep making stupid mistakes, especially against these agile dark elfs. Hard to play against 10+ blodge elfs with just 2 tackle (and them being linemen).

Note to myself: lessons taught today were
*If you stall, stall safe, not like here
*If they might stall, foul their ma9 player :).
