“The tide of Nuffle really turned hard against Eganra on this one.

The rats scored quickly (Turn 2) and were leading the CAS count. They soon extended their lead with a well executed blitz to loosen up the ball and Steff's amazing pace doing the rest. With time running out and playing with fewer numbers and 2 TDs down things looked grim for the Ruffians. Thankfully the stars shine brightest when the night is darkest. Fáelan the Fleet kept the ball safe and moved quickly, handing off to Cadeyrn MagFoirtchern to run in the score with GFIs. 1-2 at half time and 0-2 on the CAS count.

The second half saw the dwarfs receiving and hoping to grind out the draw. Things started poorly with a deep kick which Riagán MagOg was unable to pick up. Rats were soon pouring into the dwarf backfield, and things looked grim. Thankfully the prayers to Nuffle worked. The previously infallible and dangerous Rat Ogre went wild, and the Dwarfs finally started breaking armour. Soon Fáelan the Fleet was on the goal-line stalling while his fellow Ruffians did their bloody work. despite a late scare he crossed in the final turn and secured the 2-2 win.

Twahnlow Votes:
1 vote - Simon: Awesome first half. His guard was a thorn in the side and his early CAS set the scene for the first half. Was near best on ground until his wildness.

2 votes - Jean-Marie: A strong rat who made several blitzes and was a constant threat (until Áed the Burned dealt with the threat).

3 votes - Steff: Her absence in the second half was a significant part of the game turning in the Dwarf's favour. She was irresistable while she was on the field. ”
