“Fanatic summed it up nicely, I rode my luck first half after fanatic had played very well, especially with most of his tackle gone.
But i got lucky at the critical points, blitz for 2-0 and perfect fireball (including a cas) to let me run away for 3-1 not much he could do, but is a good player and played well, the score not reflecting how close it was.
Was a cool game. Very good team against my poor orc skills. But we did our best. Wasn't enough apparently. :)
First half started with some KOs (Fox out, BoB with guard out and the second tackler out). So only my DP/tackler left. At that time my only chance was hitting good as well. And they did it! 3 KOs myself (one by my wizard) and Jock tried to foul Morg with the eye on him, so it was 8 vs 7. At that time I thought I might do this ... I put some pressure and all the DEs were caged at one side. But how can you cage an ag6 elf?! He got out after a 1d and me getting him down again didn't stop him. 1-0 for the elves and a TTM chance for the 1-1. But then it was Jock's time to show why his team is so awesome. Blitz! for him, ag6 catches it and 2-0. Played a bit risky that turn by trying to score, so I went for the ballcarrier. Maybe I should have gone for the receivers.
But now I had another shot for the TTM, my only chance to make the second half a bit interesting. The goblin just catched the kick and that was a good sign apparently: 1-2!
Fox still out for second half was bad, but with a bad kick I gave the ball to Morg. 2 elves out in the first turn, so I thought I might have a chance to get to OT. But then it happened: fireball on 4 guys, all 4 went down. M8 elf took the ball and ran away. Put some pressure so he would make the 3-1, because there was a small chance with 3 turns left (TTM and then 2 turns left for the 3-3). But at that time my guys didn't want anymore. The goblin crashed, the elves took the ball and 4-1. Don't think the score says it all, but it was a fun game. First half was very interesting. Second half it was over soon.
Well played, Jock and thanks for the game. Good luck further on,
Fanatic”

Good luck with the animals.”
