Vino had a punchy game v Seven Nill and had fun in Garbage Time of the 1st half taking on Chosen Blocker Sieben Null (who had Block when Vino didn't) and broke his armour on a double 6, resulting in Sieben being knocked out.
Vino deservedly picked up the MVP award in R6 for his consistent BigUn behaviour, skilling-up with Block in the aftermath.
Taking his new found skill into game 4 v Bag End he blitzed Rosie Cotton early in the 2nd half scoring a kill outright. Doing his job well.
LOS stand-in for Dave Cornetto against Hi-Ho for the Wooden Spoon, the ghost of Vino Steel lives on, having been 'killed' by Gimli at the end of the 1st half in a brutal Dauntless Block. Living on an Apo Prayer, he's still halfway there...
Vino though carrying a niggle didn't hold back aginast Khorne, knocking Ichor Rumba out in the first half reducing Khorne's numbers.

Slowly making his name in the game he's a consistent blocker, twice voted MVP. He was pushed into the crowd during the 1st half v CoC by Goroq-Gar the Saurus, not hurt, but certainly riled. Among his valuable moves was a full stretch Blitz in the 2nd half of that same game where he knocked down Tzanaki the Skink carrying the ball, which if unsuccessful would surely have led to CoC adding to the blushes of Hennessy's yet winless side.
One to watch, adding Block to his repertoire going into the 3rd against Poison Garden.
Hennessy had a solid game against PG, a highlight catching a pass from Hanna in the Pouring Rain in turn 7 of the 2nd half. Unfortunately he just didn't have the legs to reach Dave Cornetto for a hand-off who was primed (though also short) for a dash into the End Zone.
Having had a standard game against Seven Nil he came to form in Turn 7 of the 2nd half blocking Lino '7-0' and killing them on dice of 10, 12, and 16 respectively.
Hennessy made some noise in game 2 of Season X Badly Hurting Elmer Bludd on an early Blitz, then moving swiftly on to knock out Bluddy Holly, reducing Khorne to 7 players in T4 of H1. He was at it again in T7 knocking out Sam Slaughter, leaving only 5 on the pitch for Khorne. Great aggression from him, doing the job he was built for, and in T1 of H2 he Badly Hurt the recently conscious again Bluddy Holly, sending them straight back to the dugout.
Seemingly having the game of his life he blitzed Maxgore into the crowd in T2 of H2, the crowd hurling the ball back onto the pitch in a favourbale spot for BM to capitalise. After that move ultimately allowed Nigel to get the TD, the infamous Cornholio did knock Hennessy out in T7.

Came close to scoring in game 1 v KH, blitzed near the end of the game one rush from a TD, causing a fumble...
Mo had a decent game v Seven Nill making her mark in Turn 3 of the 2nd half knocking out Lino Siete Nullo in a scrap on the wing as Chosen made a push forward.
Not satisfied with a knockout she went on to Seriously Hurt Lino Septem Nil with a block on the next turn, and later on in Turn 7 following a turnover very nearly ran-in a TD, if it wasn't for some blessed dodging followed by a Blitz to ultimately de-ball Mo.
Mo opened her account against Seven Nill in Season X blocking Sete Nada II for a casualty early in the second-half.
Going on a Blitz against Khorne in G3 she knocked-out ball carrier Fangoria of Khorne, removing their key ball handler and reducing the team to 8 players on the pitch.
Just having gone 0-1 down against Poison Garden in R3 of SX Mo loses her rag and Blocks Amarylis, smashing her armour and rolling a 13 with Mighty Blow, sending her to an early grave...

Came close to scoring in the 2nd half of game 1 v KH, tripped whilst dodging on the byline...
Keith gets the hand-off ball from Hanna in turn 8 of game 3 v PG, Hanna overcoming her Animosity finally on a re-roll, he then rushes twice and scores the team's inaugural Touchdown. It's been a long time coming but a suitably classy move between two good players to get on the scoreboard.
Against Bag End Rangers Keith heroically deflected a Piewhistle bomb killing Peregrin Took and Knocking himself out in the process.
Keith executed the perfect block against Duane Silenthammer of Khorne in game 5, Badly Hurting the guy and removing him from play.
Scored in the last game of the season win making it a not so wooden spoon. The word hero is over-used, but to take the ball from Nigel in the face of Animosity only to survive a Blitz, and then dodge-out on an RR having Blitzed away another oppo himself, to leg it down the pitch for a TD is worthy of a mention, particularly as it secured the only win of the season for the yet to be great BM.

After an hilarious chain of events where Sanguinaria of PG knocked the ball from Hanna Barbera's grasp, and then tripped whilst dodging - twice - before injuring themselves and needing an Apo to get back onto the Reserves Bench, then following Hanna successfully dodging to regain the ball having re-rolled with Sure Hands, Nigel targets Ricinus of PG standing directly in the way of the main drive and kills them outright. Top Blitz.
MVP after the game v PG, adding Guard to his skillset.
Nigel in classically Orcish behaviour blitzed Lobelia Sackville-Baggins in garbage time at the end of the 4th game, scoring a kill, and soothing the injured pride of the team in failing to win a game they nearly had in their gnarly green mitts.
Nigel got himself banned in the game v Khornucopia for an ill-advised foul on Kernel Krusher, though it did remove the Bloodseeker from the pitch with a Niggle. Eye for an eye.
Christenned Brother Nigel for being blessed in the last game of the season win for resisting a veritable barrage of blocks.

MVP in the blood-bath that was the Bag End game, though claiming no scalps himself in that one.
Dick was on form in a bashy 2nd half against Seven Nill blitzing Chosen Blocker Sept Neant, getting a pair of Pows and an armour roll of 10 to break through and kill his foe, but for the swift use of an Apo to leave Neant just Seriously Hurt, with a Niggle.
Appropriately skilling-up post-game with Mighty Blow.
Dick slowly becoming a key player for the team got the TD against Hi-Ho in the last match of the core season, cementing his place for the redraft. He took a handover from Keith after Hanna had been knocked off the ball and ran it home.
A burgeoning star - jinx - having notched 3 casualties, a TD, and an MVP in his 1st season.
Dick bounced into Season X with a knockout in his first game against Siete Cero of Seven Nill.
In T8 of H1 versus Khorne Dick blitzed Maxgore in a move that surely kept the game in the hands of BM as Khorne with only 5 players were about to run-in a TD, with BM due to Kick at the start of H2.
Dick lost a notch of armour in the game against Zombie Shufflesquad coming up against a Mummy. The Coach wasn't sympathetic, Dick having made a silly move for the ball in T2 of H2 at 1 up which could've handed th eimpetus to the other team. The Coach did though roll the Apo out for Dick, not that it helped... Dick misses the next game, with Av-1.

Hanna loves cartoons. She brings an apparently unpopular skillset for an Orc team, but nevertheless can pick up a ball, unlike most, and pass, if only there was someone to catch it. A less punchy dimension to the team granted, but she's certainly not soft. Yet to score, yet to cause any casualties, but she will...
Taking herself out of the game somewhat comically in the 1st half v CoC whilst blocking Thaqua the Skink (also badly hurt), she will add interest to any game.
Had a solid game against PG earning a Pass Completion point in the Pouring Rain.
Some say Hanna made a key gaff against Bag End in game 4 by Rushing when it wasn't entirely necessary. The team had the oppo nicely tagged and there was time, but she had to go for that second rush and spilled the precious egg... Results turn on such events.
Frustrated going forward against Seven Nill, she seemingly got a bit antsy at Turn 6 in the 2nd half and blitzed Lino Whitu Kore, killing them outright - adding another body to the 3 oppo already taken off the pitch in the game.

Nar joined the team in time for the game against Seven Nill, and after a quiet first half opened their account in classic BigUn Blocker style at turn 7 by knocking out Lino Septem Nil.
A late signing to the side to complete the Big 4 blocker set, great things are forecast for Nar.
Frustrated at his team losing the ball from a 1D block by an ordinarily flimsy elf Nar Blocks Destroying Angel killing them outright with a roll of 11 through the armour and 16+1 for the splash.
