“I've watched this match a few times now and I really did not play very well. I had awful positioning on defense multiple times, didnt really contest much and was extremely lucky to score all:

First TD was scored on a 5+ pass that had rerolled and caught on a 3+ by a SV. then his path to the endzone was contested by 3 skinks where a blitz failed to nail him - opponent failed the gfi on blitz.

I really loved the concept of the play rolling the SV out to the empty part of the field, I'll have to remember to try that with a GR so I can get out of range of opposition and not have to roll on a 3+

2nd TD was bad ball handling on his part along with failed blocks. Picked up after a 2d blitz by my SV and a pickup.

I get a perfect D result and bungle it horribly. Easy score for him.

I kick off to start the 2nd half and he outplays as i commit terribly.

Now on the ensuing kickoff i fumble the pickup but he fails to make a play on the ball after an ill fated 1d6 loner skink block against a linerat. Now if i could single out a pivitol moment it would be this. If he could have made that block he would have been able to at least attempt a play on the ball with a free skink. It seems like this was his only ill advised play of the game - mostly because he didnt use the reroll then because loners but it doesnt seem like it was worth the risk - he still had 3 skinks to move before that block and also had 2 rerolls. I understand the reason not to use the reroll because of loner but that really left him out of position. Granted the next turn I made, One 3+ dodge,One 2d6,One 1d6 blocks,One 2+ Pickup, One 3+ Catch for the score without use of reroll.

I again kick off and actually make a play on the ball that should ensure victory - I am able to knock his ball carrier off the pitch. Unfortnately the throw in puts it in easily playable. I did a stupid dodge to try and get in position to intercept rather than marking his skink who subsequently scores on a 5+ pass from another skink.

In the final act of garbage on my part I set for the 1ttd and then get a quick snap and get a touchback ensuring that only have to make two 3+ dodges, one 2+ dodge, and a GFI which I pass on a 2.

I really didnt play very well and lucked out majorly but his inability to capitalize on my sloppy play cost him. Most other opponents wont be as lucky as me.
