“Our gobbos have been matched for the 2nd time running vs no-reroll ogres. We were hoping for something a little.. softer as we've been losing goblins horribly over the last 5 or so games but lets see what we can do!
When one of their gobbos niggles out and ours doesn't it means there's 11 of us vs 10 of them, though we will be kicking. And they immediately rectify the numbers situation, with their first block badly hurting a gobbo on the LOS. We counter by knocking over a +MA ogre and gang-DP-fouling him into the BH box! We do better from then on, flooding their backfield with our gobbos when they don't pick up the ball quickly enough. And when they do eventually grab it with an ogre, we're able to dodge 5 goblins around him and blitz him over with our block-AGI4-super-gobbo Gimp who also grabs it as it bounces! They knock him over twice, but can't break his armour and he keeps recovering the ball, though just as he dodges for the touchdown a diving tackle from a goblin knocks him over! But a 3d block by an ogre coming up skull/skull/both-down causes a turnover before they can go for the ball and we're able to snag it with a rookie and score!!
It's 9v9 for the 2nd half with one of our goblins -AV seriously injured by their block ogre at some point during the 1st half. We start well, Jonah once again badly hurting an ogre with a gang foul! We push forwards with the ball and put the hurt in- badly hurting their block ogre, then seriously injuring a goblin with a 1d both-down from another gobbo. They badly hurt our ball carrier with a good blitz and then grab the ball with an ogre! Fortunately we're able to blitz him over with I Hit Stuff.. who also catches the ball somehow! Boneheads on their turn mean they can only get a 1d block- pushing our troll who blitzes back and runs in the touchdown! 2-0!
With two turns to go and only 5 players to hold back our 7 we're able to rush through and grab the ball in front of an ogre and dodge away. In their turn they roll up some boneheads and a 1d skull and so can't even try and block our ball carrier who sprints downfield to make it 3-0 just before we run out of time!
