“That's 5 games in a row since creation the Shorties have failed to win the FAME roll. ONE DAY we'll have fans who care.. one day!

We kick off and the ball lands on one side near the LOS, which coupled with a perfect defence means we have players all around it from the very start. We both get hit with unfortunate double skulls in the first few turns but ours is more key and lets them escape with the ball right down the other side of the pitch.

Our nearby prone centaur is the break tackle one, handily and he uses it to great affect to max-range blitz over the lineman with the ball. They get players over quicker than us however and when we try and 1d blitz a lineman into the stands we can only get a skull and our centaur KO'd instead!

This lets them securely take the ball to beside our endzone and stall out a few turns (we're outnumbered 10 to 7 and all our players are knocked over). Eventually they walk it in on T8.

We set up for our one turn of blocking before half time... but what's this?? The norse team are hiding in their dugout!! We look for the ref but he's already blowing the half time whistle! Skullduggery!!

Everyone's KOs have woken up now so it's 12 vs 11 again for the 2nd half. We only knock over one norse player despite a whole load of blocks and go for a foul on him, but can only stun and get our hobgob sent off. I think the cheating's put us off our game!!

Their MB/claw snow troll finally causes some damage on T2 with a BH on a dwarf, though meanwhile our break tackle centaur has rumbled downfield to score on T4. 1-1!

However we have still to hurt a norse so they have 11 vs our 10 which doesn't look good for us. They quickly make it worse by MNG'ing one of our centaurs with a snow troll blitz. We have a chance at the ball the next turn.. but our centaur double 1s on the GFI. Right after this they KILL our clawed dwarf and the apo can only make it worse. They then run the ball down one side with 3 linemen and it looks like they are almost certain to win it. But on T7 we're able to blitz back with our centaur to KO one lineman and then stand in front of the ball carrier while we mark the third with a hobgob. They fail a GFI to make it a 1d blitz for the endzone and we KO the ball carrier, leaving them a difficult pickup + pass attempt to try and win it which comes to nothing.
