#1 Brat – Broken Ribs (MNG) #1 Brat – Smashed Knee (NI)
“Wow. Seriously, this was a HILARIOUS game. You would never think a 0-0 draw could be this whacky and entertaining.
The first half seemed pretty even on the whole. The drama came in the last couple of turns when my star thrower, Lobba, made a break for it, picking out the blitzer in the end zone with a laser-guided long-bomb, only to see it deftly picked out of the air by a defending lineorc! Lobba then was lucky enough to have second go at the pass, only for the inept blitzer to fumble the catch (with a rr) ...
The second half can only be described as a massacre. His players tore through my lines as if they were halflings and before I knew it I was down to about 5 players vs 11 (ended up at 3 i think ...). It seems that my players either put on papier mache armour by accident, or they forgot to have their weetabix this morning.
Rumanski looked certain for an easy TD when one of my blitzers (vicious sid) single-handedly dodged, then successfully 1db-ed the ball carrier, picked up the ball (in a TZ) and dodged away AGAIN. He then managed to survive a crunching block from about four players, then practically repeated the feat the following turn, driving the ball deep into Rumanski's half.
Sid soon ended up in the KO box with most of his chums, however it seemed that he had done just enough to hold up the opposition so that they only had a couple of turns to carry the ball the whole length of the pitch to score.
Don't know how I managed a draw there, but respect to Lobba, Vicious Sid and Rumanski's intercepting lineorc.”
