Season 14 – Week 2 – GOAT No More!?

What? I’m up! I’m up! Fine! Anyway, match reports… match reports… ah! Here they are [throws stack of papers at reporter]

North Division

The Bloated Bile Blitzers (2) 1 vs 1 (0) Norsca Wild Fire

A poor kick-off from the Bile Blitzers saw them 1-0 down by the second turn and put them on the defensive in the first half. But after the half-time break the Blitzers rallied back, scoring a volley of injuries against their lightly armoured northern opponents. I mean, not Touchdowns, but this is the Bile Blitzers, they don’t go into that sort of guache thinking. Well, apart from that one Pestigor who keeps scoring when the rest of them are content to keep pounding on their opponents.

He’s a weird one he is.

Beards of Zeus (1) 1 vs 0 (0) Barack Varr Dreadnauts

The DN’s coach warned us this would happen. The DN’s had been getting cocky in the aftermath of their crushing 4-0 win in the Summer League and this was the inevitable result. Coming up against a staunch traditional playing Dwarf team (IE: one that cheats like a goblin team but with better armour) their ill-advised notions of “passing” “running” and “not fouling” soon caused them to come a cropper.

Flint Churnblade was fouling left and right, the Zeus’s Doomroller was an unholy nightmare to deal with, and Boomer Eziasson was tossing bombs right and left, although he needs to throw a little higher methinks as twice his opponent managed to grab the explosives and return them to him. It was such a filthy first half from the Beards that by the end of it, the Refs flat out said that they’d used up all of their bribery funds in that first half, and there wasn’t enough to make them look the other way over all of their obvious cheating and that it was the Dreadnaughts turn to make blatant breaches of the fair-play booklet.

Nevertheless, in the second half they couldn’t quite get the distance they needed, and horror of horrors they broke their own cage in an attempt to score and quite rightly the Beards punished them, got the ball, and scored instead.

Hopefully this sobering experience for the DN’s will see them going back to their more traditional and tried and tested game plans.

South Division

Har Ganeth Vipers (0) 1 vs 3 (1) Liz ‘n’ Let Die

Liz and Let Die showed a much better performance compared to their last game against fellow scalies Lustria Locomotiv. This was their opponents first game of the season and I guess the Lizzies wanted to make sure they got a ‘warm’ welcome. The elves took a light drubbing in the first half, but sadly nothing permanent. They then rallied back and turned the second half into a back and forth scoring bonanza but LnLD managed to ride the tiger and come out on top.

Lokomotiv Lustria BBFC (1) 2 vs 0 (0) Themysciran Thunderers

It’s was a good round for Chainsaw weilding maniacs this week, with Wilhelm Chaney flailing around in this game, murdering and savaging and Flint Churnblade over in the Dreadnaut Vs Beards game hacking and fouling everywhere. The Thunderers struggled this game to break armour and paid for it as Locomotiv continued their hot streak and rampaged to a resounding win.
