“Nuffle was affected by the Novovirus, and directed all his blessings onto the Abhorents.

Learnings:


1. SPACE

That is, the taking of space. With this team, we wasted little time, and pushed up a side where space was available.

Luckily, this was coupled with nice removals of the Necro, and no failed rushes as we penetrated and caged in mid field.

So, keep doing this- take space where available and safe to do so.


2. TIGHTER

Keep tighter cage, more tackle zones, around ball carrier. Coach Edwin found a 4+ dodge to base ball carrier.

It did not come off, but close. With side step and foul appearance, it could have been a problem.


Summary:

We are under no illusions: a freakish 4+ dodge into POW on ball carrier, also removing the only 3+ AG ball carrier, was very lucky.

Ghouls failing dodges into death, fouls stunning and killing but no send offs...

We can be proud of some elements in this game, but we had no fails all game, and lucky when it was most important.

No re-rolls were used until T16, and even then they were gratuitous and speculative, fishing for CAS SPP.

Not normal. Quite, abhorent.
