“Well hey there, sportsfans! This is me, Bob Bobson, bringing you the lastest news from Blood Bowl stadiums across the world. Tonight, watch the infamous 1106 replay of the Darkside Cowboys ripping through the Lowdown Rats in the Blood Bowl quarters; but now, here's the latest from the home of the Fungus Brewers' Society. (Sponsored by CAM-Rargh!, your best guide to mule-kickin' ales, where-ever you are.)
Lined up against long-term divisional rivals, the Orcs or Saruman, the game was set to be tense. But from the first, it seemed to be dominated by poor blocking, mishandling and a generally spotty performance from both teams. After a neatly snapped throw the Brewers shift left; things are going well on the drive till -- see the replay there? -- Troshus hands the ball to a spectator! And one from Mordor, too! Well, that settled that, the ball goes back into play deep in Sauron's half, and the rest of the drive is a desperate ducktape defence that sees the second half starting with the scores both at zero.
Now we rejoin the action in the second half -- the Orcs are pushing up, you'll see them shifting effortlessly from side to side to try and penetrate an increasingly rag-tag Brewers defence. But those head hits take their toll: there's another carried off just there. Finally, de facto captain "Runnin'" Krak Sturmen makes his move: it's a one-two that starts with a biiig hit on Brank there, and Krak steals in from behind and grabs the ball. There's no one to stop him: he's on the twenty - he's on the ten! Touchdown! Surely there's nothing that Sarumon's crew can do about that now.
It's a big kick from them to start - the players face off with a few good fists flying and ... there's the whistle. It's all over.
The dust is just settling after that win; but the Brewers are already off, training for the next lineup. From the Fungus Brewers' Society this is Bob Bobson, good night.
[Well, that was fun. I'm still getting used to the tiny keys and tiny screen of this netbook; so my sincere apologies for the snail-paced first half. It was a good fun game, though Stinkytroll's luck was incredible at times. I've never seen so many critical dice rolls fluffed so consistently. Seriously - the luck meter hovered at about 10% for a couple of turns. But any time a rematch is in the offing, I'm game if you are!]”
