“Once again, the Daredevils cheat fate, and this time, it was against a non-stunty team. Kicking first, it probably would have been smarter to leave the wagons in reserve, but Poshgit couldn't resist and threw them on in the first drive - these guys aren't Elves, after all, so maybe with some marking and bashing we'd be able to sneak the ball away? A foolish idea, but SPM did drop the ball in T2. Luckily it was well-protected, and they were able to run the ball in in T4.

One of the wagons came back for the next drive, accompanied by Fungus. The Daredevils pushed their way up the pitch, but eventually were bogged down by effective marking. Flinch the Snotling made a solo break for the endzone with the ball, while The Bashy But Fast Wun attempted to keep Counsellor Jheiran the Rogue off his back. Unfortunately, that left Jared "The Prince" free to wrestle Flinch down and free the ball for Jheiran to collect. The Daredevils were able to reclaim it in T8, and attempted a daring TTM/hand off combo that would have put them within scoring range...but with no rerolls in the bank it was doomed to fail.

A high kick sent the ball into Smee's hands at the start of H2, and while SPM were able to knock him down to free it, their vanguard was overrun by Snotlings, leaving Flinch free to run the ball in to equalise in H2T4.

Fungus, the utter babe that he is, had still managed to avoid being sent off, so returned for an incredible third drive! On top of that, not a single Snotling had been injured so far! Another high kick sent the ball straight into the arms of SPM Brawler Chron. Both sides began dancing, feinting, and weaving - wherever Chron went with the ball, a Snotling was there to mark him. He made a dash down the Daredevils' right flank...and seemingly out of nowhere was assaulted by 4 Snotlings (who made an impressive number of dodges and GFIs without any rerolls required to make it a 2d block)! The ball was dropped by the sidelines and surrounded by Snotlings - Fungus the Loon kindly contributed an early turnover which prevented the Snotlings from shifting the ball, and in H2T8 SPM had one last chance. Although they were unable to shift the Snotlings (Dodge + Side Step FTW!), Speedy Gonza was able to collect the ball...but failed the last dodge roll he needed to score that winning TD - what rotten luck!

It's not clear what dark magic Poshgit has called on, but clearly it's very powerful. Looking forward to the next match!”
