“First half we received and our blocking actually did something with 2 loner elves leaving the pitch in the first two turns. Our surehands ball carrier should have been home free but failed a reroll dodge and is now MNG. Elves recovered and took it to the far side but the Krox managed to pow the ball carrier and we recovered and sprinted up the near side with good cover to stop the elves getting back. Scored turn 8.

Second half they scored very quickly, tried a Krox blitz to Tail the ball carrier but he boneheaded and so it was an easy run in for them. Esepcially as I was down 3 skinks. (Fouling does not work... especially when skinks are expensive. Plus fail dodge led to Quetz being killed)

We received deep near side and managed to pick up. Didn't have much cover but stayed back to avoid the Elves. They came running in to close. At the far end of the pitch we managed to blitz free a catch skink and a hand off latter and we were at their endzone with the ball and no elves in sight. Managed to stall 2 turns before having to score.

Elves, same again, quick break. However the deep kick meant elves had to run back to pick up and pass and then hand off which meant a cage couldnt be fully formed. A skink block left teh Krox able to blitz and pow the ball carrier and our block skink to pick up and hold on for the rest of the game.

Another win for the Skinks!

My opponent got screwed on block dice. He rolled 4% pows... I rolled 5% skulls...

However we did outbash them and managed to get off lots of nice blocks and then dodge away to avoid hitting back which I was pleased with.

Winnings went on replacing some niggled players.”
