“In a match that was essentially a dead rubber, it came down to a thrilling finish.
Harlequins predictably two turn scored early. PSA then controlled the rest of the half despite a perfect defence to score a return on T8 to go into halftime at 1-1. Kickoff ensured, and PSA did much of the same. Elves tried some kamikaze leaping super dodging for -2db hits on the ball carrier which didn't work out. A cluster ensured before PSA made a run for it in the last two turns with a screen. The elves then dodged numerous times to surround Night Patrol in TZs among other actions (with no re-rolls available), and sent a lino running downfield. Night Patrol would have to pass 2 x 2+ rolls with one team re-roll to win the game.
Promptly rolled double 1 and failed. Elves picked up the ball, I failed the intercept, and they long passed it down the pitch for the lino to gfi twice into the endzone for a winner. Goes to show when the elves start getting on a roll and you muck one up, you can be elfed into submission despite never allowing a single 2db attempt on the ball carrier.
Well played to Clay though, and he showed why he was runner up this season. We'll crush you, and drink your blood out of our trophy next season! ;)”
