“We kick first and on T3 manage a 1d blitz vs the ball despite the dorfish cage, getting a POW and letting us steal the ball. They can dodge blitz to 1d the ball free but it still looks ok for us.. til we roll double skulls. They then niggle a blitzer (apo saves) and then KO 4 other players in two turns.. leaving us just 2 vs their 7. They score with ease on T8 and with two rounds of rolls we get only 2 out of our 4 in the KO box... going to need a fast score here!

But no, nothing but pain awaits us as they defend deep, and quickly KILL our runner and then KO another 2 players... 7 vs 3 = game over!”
