First Half: Woodies kicked deep. My plan was to keep a tight Guard cage and look to get a player numbers advantage hitting with MB, and the skellies were ready to kick and foul any elf that went down. Realistically to beat a top race like Woodies, with a top coach like BiBi would need a bit of luck.
Undead cage worked up the pitch, with Guard Mummies pushing into contact.
Blocking was disappointing and by T5 it was 9 Undead v 11 Elves. T6 the cage got to about 8 squares out but the treeman would not go down, and the Strip Dancer popped the ball. I did not tidy up the resulting mess and unfortunately it was turnover score in the elves final turn.
Second Half Doudou polanders worked round one wing, and made a fairly safe score. In truth I did not really expect to be able to stop 11 elves.
Receiving again Undead faced an elf Blitz, and the game ended up as a messy scramble for the ball.
So our first loss, a well deserved win by BiBi. The minor silver-lining is my strength of schedule is now second highest in the whole competition! ”
