This was a tough match. Iron Maiden got sent off the first foul, and we struggled to find a gap past the Dwarves. We had to hurry score, giving the Dwarves time in the first half to equalise. There was too much guard for us to get 2 die blocks. 1-1 first half.
Second half, and we got a blitz, only for GnW to risk it all and throw the ball to his +ST Dwarf......and makes it! We try to work out how to get the ball off this monster. An opportunity arrises, and we take a 1-die block and get him! The +AG grabs the ball and throws to a receiver.....only for a dorf in the way to Incercept!!! NOOOOO!!!!
From here it was near impossible to stop the rolling cage. What with Stalker Hound being RIPed and too many players off the field, we were in trouble. 1-2.
Final setup, and GnW remembered to put his stand firm players on the edges, so we couldn't do the Frenzy 1-turner trick. 1-2 the final result.
Well done GnW, you played really well. GL going for the title.

“A good game for the Stonemasons. The coaching staff had built this up as a must win match. The head coach thinks there are three serious contenders for the Conference title (of which the masons are one) so the masons need to beat the other two. Picnic down and Bandits up next..... the Conference trophy is being wrapped up and shipped to Belvain as we speak!
A boring game over all that could have been a draw. 1-1 at half time, the dorfs received second half and put the ball into the hands of the St4 longbeard and aimed to grind their way down field for 8 turns. A bit of an error from the masons allowed the Picnic a blitz on the ball carrier. The ball was turned over to an AG5 darkie who tried to short pass it to an unmarked witch elf but one of the little men managed an interception and the rest is history as they say. Grind grind grind.... turn 8 score.
Boring but effective.
Conf Twahnlows:
3pt: #14 Paris Hilton - the angry witchelf managed 16 blocks. There was a Blitz kickoff in there to help but still an average 2 blocks per turn.
2pt: #11 Shocks - thankfully missed most of the 2nd half but blodge sidestep meant the dorfs were always aware of where he was (and were trying to avoid him)
1pt: #6 Iron Maiden (a charity vote) the picnic's DP laid on a gang foul turn 1 - stunned a longbeard but got sent off.....”
