“We came up against a much higher rated Human side but gave them a run for their money in a high scoring, hard hitting match.
We started off with a ttm td (Les threw Lucan) and the humans responded quick through Lola. We scored another ttm td after Lucan was first thrown short, had to retreat, and was thrown again. Then despite a long kick Lola was pushed forward and got an amazing one turn td. The snots titchy efforts didn't quite disrupt him enough. During the half we lost a few snots but also took out some key human hitters to keep us well in the game.
Alas the key moments for our defeat came early in the second half. There was a great short kick to our weak side which eventually lead to Lucan being poorly protected and a blitzer dodge in to take him down. A catcher picked up and handed off the ball to the blitzer in tackle zones and just as we were about to blitz back we had a bonehead for 1 Ogre followed by a quad skulls for Haystacks! He let us down after what was otherwise an awesome display from him. The humies scored though a riot from the excitement hungry fans gave us an extra turn against the outnumbered side. However at 2tds down we were sure to lose. Jim and Haystacks kept hitting hard and eventually Lucan got the ball to Les for our 3rd td. The Ogres were glad of the extra apothecary hired today as both Lucan and Big Daddy needed extra treatment. Fun match! ”
