“Tactical Takeaways -

1. Demolished in the Casualties

We got clobbered this go around. I thought if we could get a few of the MB blitzers out we'd have a chance, and we actually have several chances to foul them out, but it wasn't going. We gradually lost more and more players. The trolled died, but luckily regened. It looked like the game was essentially over, but from some stupid goblin maddness.

2. Play To Your Outs

It was pretty clear after the first half that I was looking to play for the draw. The opponent was grinding down removing players gradually as he went. We had a final shot where the opponent was against the sideline and we managed to make the dodges and get the 1D blitz with the ball scattering into the stands. The bounce worked out for us. We recovered and managed to waste more time with the game ending in a draw.

3. Foul Rolls Not Hot

We really need fouls to be getting players off, and that wasn't happening. With numbers at parity, we struggle. We need to be ahead on numbers. ”
