“On starting up this match my first thought was ‘what the hell happened to that team?’ no mino, only 2 rookie warriors and no fewer than 4 journeyman goats. You have to respect the determination of a player nursing a team like that back to health – lets see if the U-dogs can help the process along.

Match Highlights:

The U-dogs open with a running play which lands them a quick lead, but the victory is bitter-sweet for AG4 gobbo Seem-natses got himself impaled on a gors horns and inconsiderately died while protecting the ball carrier, leaving the team short of a flying specialist, there was a short debate as to whether the doc should be sent for but the decision was settled when the skaven doc refused to even contemplate treating a lowly greenskin. RIP Seem-natses, my far flung flying freak of a gobbo!

The coach decided to try a new defensive strategy this match – he calls it ‘how annoying can gobbos be’ so skaven players a rested and the pitch is flooded with diminutive grots (plus a troll and the odd rat to make up numbers). Turns out gobbos can be very annoying as the gors ball carrier picks up on the touchline well away from the rest of the play, he feels secure enough not to GFI away from the clambering crowd only to have Gerald toss Odeen-natses down range and the plucky two headed gobbo manages to blitz the surprised beastman back into touch and the loving embrace of his adoring fans - definitely one to add to the play book. The ball lands back in U-dog possession but deep in their half and with the stronger chaos players closing in. Indecision leads to poor decisions and the Gors of Tzeench are able to reclaim the ball and score before the end of the half.

A short kick and butterfingured goats allow the U-dogs to steal the ball and run in a second TD against the kick. The gors show good use of their horns after the ensuing restart to exploit a hole left in the U-dog defence by the totally unreasonable ejection of, so called, dirty player Devia-natses for allegedly stamping on a Gor player replays later confirmed that it was actually the Gor who was a fault as he repeatedly and viciously facebutted the underside of Devia-natses’ hobnail boot. Final score 2-2, it is another not-loss for the U-dogs and a safe recovery game for the Gors.
