“Ramon pissed this one away due to a fixation on fouling. Instead of freeing up his catcher from the tackle zone of a longbeard, he chose to blitz a random guy away from the play. Then he dodged the catcher, WITH THE BALL, away from the longbeard and away from the end zone, to stand next to the sideline to give an assist on the foul. An unlucky 1db failure the following turn led to a chain of chain-pushes and 5 players of his surfed, me getting the ball, and scoring on T8.

Second half went mostly to plan. Dwarves mashed a path and took the ball through it. I got a little careless with caging since Ramon had shown no interest in the ball so far in the game, and he managed to knock the ball loose for a turn, but that was the biggest threat he posed after giving up the game in the first half. After a secured the ball more thoroughly, he went back to fouling every turn he could manage.

From the way he played, aside from a nice repertoire of "how can I foul with lots of assists" plays, I'd never guess he wasn't an academy player who just learned the game. I miss the DMU, and coaches who knew how to headhunt AND try to win.”
