“Sigh... a cruel game for the Cruelmasters.

We are not able to assert dominance. Our superior opponent withdraws his offence, and then easily splits our defensive line to score on T8. Masterful, and I cannot see how to stop this tactic.

It feels like we are out bashed, however the statistics do show we had more opportunites for blocks. With only 9 players on the pitch, either slow or fragile, we did struggle.

Congratulations to Coach Bombay. There was no stopping you this game.

Learnings:

1) The withdrawn offence is a tricky one to manage for this Chaos Dwarf team. I do not know to chase, or stay put.

2) Do not foul so early in game. We did not succeed, and were in fact sent off, giving numbers advantage to opponent.

3) Basing elves not a good idea. Even with guard, the elves find 1DB to make life tough for us.

It is also the 2nd consecutive game a loner lineman has the MVP. Some teams are destined for failure. ”
