These humans we've faced before, looking for something I recall they were. Found it yet, perhaps they have not, but soon I suspect they will.

Our ball again, excellent. Anarchy and Extortion together again. Big Peanut the target, stupid Ogre, chainsaw fouls and hits doing nothing to him, and then he won that battle in one hit. Well, we smashed the humans over time and again, and they failed a few things, diving tackle even saving the score.

The weapons purged, they had a shot and we started our defence with 11 gobs. What a day. They fumbled about with the ball, and we fumbled about trying to nick it to little effect. Corruption eventually failed a covering break after we blocked him in, and they ran it in at full stretch.

No matter, 10 gobs, our ball, well screened and pushing up. We switched well, but there was a miscount and Hush Money did not go for it. That's the second this season. Human Blitzers are fast, and we struggled to recover. Still when kickbacks fell, Conspiracy caught the scatter, then stood the blitz. Kickbacks got out of the way, Conspiracy ... failed the dodge to set up the win. Bribery tried a miracle double-break but the range was too much and they stole it.

There was a chance despite the perfect defence, but it wasn't to be. Another what may have been, if only squares were counted and GFIs made. Coaching, even with Goblins it matters.
