Result

Philip Croft (humans) 2 - 3 John Garton (Dwarfs) aet

A damned close match, and I will try to do a match report tomorrow.

The Dwarfs received and scored half way thru the first half by using the cage tactic. The humans equalised on the second to last turn by using a refused flank.

Second half, the humans bomb bursted, while a single thrower hung back with the ball. In turn 4, under pressure from a pair of Longbeards, he threw a Long Pass into the waiting arms of a catcher, who promptly scored.

The Dwarfs had only five turns to score, and managed on the last turn, by pummelling the humans into the turf.

Winning the toss for extra time, the Dwarfs kept up their war of attrition, and it was inevitable, as they powered home on turn 5, in what was almost a carbo copy of the second touchdown.

Just wanted to say cheers to Phil for a very close and very entertaining game of Blood Bowl last Thursday evening!

With a few better bounces of the ball he would have stopped me on the drive that made it two-all and took it into extra time, and had he won the roll to receive I wouldn't have wanted money on my Dwarves finally being able to stop him either!

It was a well played and very tense game - thank you!

dont forget that for the second round you can give two players one skill each!

Any chance of an old fashioned Gobstykup next year?

Play who you want (although I would say a limit of ten games in total, and no more than 2 against any one opponent) and then the four best teams (or eight if we have enough) go to the semi finals.

I miss these old style games.

thats the plan phil! i had a chat with a few people the week you was away but added you and will anyway! as soon as we get this out of the way i'll make a little announcement!
