“Fael-chaos face ogres (sigh). They have 8 ogres and we have just 11 players w/ 2 MNGs out.

We receive and start well with our troll badly hurting an ogre on the LOS- just 7 more to go!

We run the ball down one side but their ogre blitzes are working well and twice they knock the ball free. On T4 their +STR gobbo grabs it but we quickly knock him over, and with a good turn of boneheads slowing them down run the ball safely towards their endzone on T7. Our troll has MNG'd another ogre (6 to go!), and a successful 2+ dodge sees us take the lead.

They go for a TTM attempt but the gobbo fails his landing and the halftime whistle goes.

With no injuries sustained on our side somehow we still have 11 vs just 9 of them now as we kick the ball straight into an ogre's gaping mouth. It takes two full turns for his look of surprise to wear off and he then starts shambling into our half. It's T4 before we can finally get a 2d blitz on him, knocking the ball unhelpfully in front of another ogre, though our DP gets in his first foul of the half KILLING another ogre - and their apo fails!

The same ogre who had previously been holding the ball in his mouth blitzes up to pick it up, but we're able to engineer a couple of 1d blocks and knock him over again, and this time our +AGI DP catches it.

They have a couple turns of failed blocks and we run the ball upfield to make it 2-0 on the last turn.
