____________________________________________________________________________
One of the founding members of the team, and appeared in 37 of the team's first 41 games. Offensively, he started 33 games, mainly at the tackle positions on the line. He also started 33 times defensively. He appeared in 498 turns.
He made 42 of 45 GFIs, 2 of 4 dodges, 2 of 4 pick-ups, and 0 of 2 catch attempts. He used 25 rerolls, with 12 of them coming for blocks.
He suffered a smashed hand following a block from a Beastman, which led to him first missing a game. A Treeman broke his ribs, which ruled him out a second time. The third time, a Saurus broke his neck. He's been pushed into the crowd once, along with being fouled nine times - by a Rotter, a Snotling, a Beastman, 2 Skinks, 2 Zombies, a Bull Centaur and Bryce the Slice. However, he's only twice been badly hurt (by a Chaos Warrior and a Chaos Dwarf) and thrice been knocked out. He suffered a damaged back from a block by a Chaos Warrior, which forced him out of the next game (which saw 3 of his teammates killed and another seriously concussed).
He knocked out 12 players, badly hurt 3 Zombies, a Beastman, an Amazon Linewoman, a Fanatic and a Wood Elf Catcher and killed 2 players (a Snotling and a Tomb Guardian, which later regenerated).
He wasn't involved too much with athletic plays, except the following:
Game 18 - dodges back successfully to form part of a cage
Game 17 - dodges within a tackle zone, but then fails to dodge out
Game 2 - picked the ball up and fell over going for it
Game 38 - he picks up the ball deep in the opposing half, having chased down the ball-carrier. He is in position to score but inexplicably let the Pestigor off the hook rather than knocking him down
Following game 41 and a clearout by the coaching staff, Szymon retired, mainly due to his back problems stemming from game 36's injury. At time of retiring he had appeared in the 5th most games, 5th most turns, had the 5th most block, caused the 4th most casualties and successfully went for it the 4th most times.
