“In a hard fought, yet scoreless game, the Advance Guard comes out with at least a moral victory of sorts. They left the game with no injuries to speak of, and inflicted two casualties on the Bulls. Ash Smokebarrel was pummeled by Lineman Bubba, receiving a sever concussion that seems to have permanently split Ash's naturally thick skull. After Theory Coach Whar declared "Toe" Nail the most targetted player in the Front Office league, one wouldn't think that "Toe" would leave himself standing alone with his back to the sideline. That was where he found himself, and his newly found Strength didn't do him a bit of good as three of the Guard herded him off the pitch and into a patch of human fans who broke his arm adding injury to the insult of being crowded. Both Toe and Ash will miss the Bull's next outing. Leaving them a man down.

The first half of the game was plagued by gaps in the time space continuoum.(connection and client synch issues) It ended in a scoreless tie. The first half started off promissing for the Bulls who received the kickoff, and started forming their tireless cage. The Guard defenced it well, and the Bulls had to completely reverse their field. Once they had managed that, Shadrack the hobgoblin tip-toed down the sideline with a pair of bulls shielding him. Remembering how the coach had instructed the hobgoblins to hand off to Bronc when he was in range of the goal, Shadrack bolted to the endzone ahead of his Centaur blocker. All was well until Shadrack tripped over his own feet at the ten yard line, he recovered only to trip again losing the ball into the endzone without an Advance Guard player anywhere near him. After Shadrack's fumble, the remainder of the half was spent with both teams in a desperate scrum for the ball. Wheels Wallace emerged from the pile and led a desperate turn eight full length of the field scoring attempt. The game ended with an Advance guard fumble near mid-field.

Coach Glengoyne was heard yelling that his Hobgoblins were too selfish, and his Dwarves playing too soft. As such, the Bulls MVP was awared to Troll Underbridge appearing in his first match. Troll knocked the humans about every time he remembered to do so. Such consistency has earned him a bit of his coach's respect.”
