First half was the dwarfs receiving, and it was a scrum for the ball the whole half. Samuro elfed through the lines to BH the dwarf runner on the first turn, knocking the ball free. The rest of the half was a series of crowd pushes for each side (none more serious than a KO) while both sides brawled for control of the ball.
Play of the first half: Ball bounces into the hands of my ST6 troll, who slowly gets herded toward the sidelines before making a daring dodge (no BT, SF or anything) to get away)
Second half was somewhat similar, but starting 9 v 11 (with my KOs being the shortage) I began fouling more agressively, both to empty the field of dwarfs and to protect my fragile gobbo (who has DP). I probably cost myself the game when on T6 of the half, I stopped at the goal line instead of scoring, resulting in...
Play of the second half: Ticassis (backup dwarf runner) makes a dodge and 1db on my ball carrier and gets a POW, knocking the ball loose.
The final play of the game for the orcs was an attempted scoop+pass for the win. With my AG5 blitzer, I dodged twice 2+, picked up, and attempted the pass to an AG4 lino in the end zone. All rolls were 2+, and the INT roll failed (no way not to throw over a dwarf), but one reroll wasn't enough and the ball clanged to the ground.
