Welcome back everyone to Blood talk! I'm your Hobgoblin host with the most (Injuries) and what a week we had eh? Death, Touchdowns, Wins, losses, ties, DEATH! Truly it brings sends tears of joy down my green cheeks to go over this series of matches. In the mean time here in our humble studio I've given good ol Tom Bones a promotion from cameraman to Cameraman/interviewer/janitor (What? I never agreed to that part boss.) . He even managed to get a few in but let's get on with the show. Aaaaaffffter a quick word from our sponsers.
The screen lights up with bright lights up and smooth jazz music is playing in the background. A goblin apears on screen and says "Down to yer last gold crown? Life got ya down? Well this months yer chance ta win it big! Get down ta Currency Crushaz Casino and get bettin! We got Slots, Blackjack and Stunty Tossin!" The screen plays a montage of several of these games "Time to win it big! Hehe suckers thinkin they can actually get my gold... OI DONT RECORD THAT YA GIT! FRUGER SMASH THIS GIT!" The screen shakes for a few seconds then cuts to static abruptly. Eh? Seems Bogins avin some technicality issues. Ah well on with the show.
First a quick recap:
Polished breastplates vs Meat Circus: Ugh another tie. Seems neither division wanted to settle things this week. 2-2 was the score and no deaths led to bore... dom. Course it wasnt a bloodless match two of the Breastplate players will be out next week nothing serious though. Luckily for these teams they werent the only tied game in their group so its not a terrible start. The breastplates now have that essential skill for any of the elfies. Kick. Whilst the Meat circus seem to have been training one of their ghouls a bit. On to the next match!
Nope.avi vs Drakworld Beasts: Wooooohhhh boy was I off about this one. It might of ended 1-1 but it was a bloodbath! Hudds beasts got annihilated by the Nopes . A dead beastman two more MNGs and worst of all a fractured skull on the minotaur. the Beasts will have to dig deep to comeback from this. Tom asked the Dwarfs if anybody had some new skills. They just said Nope. But it was a lie they actually have a pretty good spread of spp all round. Watch out for these guys fellas they are bloodthirsty!
The Rito Rats vs Huff n' Puff: Finally a match that resolved sumthink! The rats being the speedy buggers they are managed a sound 3-1 victory. Both teams still look pretty healthy though so at least there is that. But none the less a nice start for the rats who will try to stay on top this week.
North Sea Buccaneers vs Hobbidihob? (HOW DO YOU PRONOUNCE THIS!?): A 2-1 Victory to the Hobbodiho... Screw it. Hobbos we are calling em the Hobbos from now on ok! Any problems!? TOM! YOU GOT A PROBLEM!? Nah didnt think so. Ok so the Hobbos get a nice 2-1 victory over the Buccaneers but suffered some damage along the way. One of my hobgoblin bretheren will be sitting out this week but worse one of the Blockers will be missing as well! Those Norse must ave hit or stomped ard. Not alls looking grim though, One of dose nasty Bull Centaur gitz got a level up so now it's gonna be even arder ta knock the bloomin beast over. On the Norse side they only got a skill up on a lineman and gave em Sure Hands. Weird but maybe they got a cunning plan.
Matchups: Fluff to come
Squiggy vs Hoggy Nope.Avi vs Polished Breastplates: sad as it is the Nopes still don't wanna talk to us so instead we have sent one of our expert spies to find out what they get up to in the locker room. Man these guys are an enigma. I mean they don't party in public they don't get caught up in the press. Whats the point of being a blood bowl player without becoming a celebrity as well!? The polished breastplates on the other hand were all to happy to share stuff with us. A little to much actually. Truth be told I forgot most of it cause there was so much. still its a classic rivalry Dwarfs vs Elfs. Speed and grace vs Strength and brute force but which can win?
Weresquid vs Illusion Meat Circus vs The Rito Rats: Ooohh boy. This match could get ugly real quick for the rats. the poor ones on the Line of Scrimage truly will have their work cut out for em. On the other hand they will be able to easily run circles round their rotting oppoents and with a good bit of dodge but no tackle on both sides this could shape up to be an intense game.
Hudd vs Btifirst The Drawold Beasts vs North Sea Buccaneers: Last week the Beasts got savaged by a team full of block but managed to hold them to a tie. This week they got savaged by a team full of block but managed to hold them to a tie. Hmmm I'm sensing a pattern here. On the bright side it seems like the loners were the only ones to take any serious damage and next week they are gonna have their minotaur back albeit in worse condition. The buccaneers on the other hand are still pretty healthy and now they have some Mighty Blow. Could make all the difference considering they have far bashier teams to face as this season goes on.
Wenteros vs Zymotic Huff n' Puff vs The Hobbos: A Necromantic team vs a Chaos Dwarf team team well we can expect some injures on both sides and a very slow game with the occasional dash by a Werewolf or Bull Centaur. The team with my Faveourite name in the league Hobbodobisae... the Hobbos are going in a Dwarf down but with three more and a Centaur that can block just as good they still have to feel good about their chances. but will it be the Rotting corpses or the dark Beards and marvellous hats that win? Well you'll have to tune in next week to find out hehehe. Or they could watch the match boss. Shut up Tom!
Please get match played by midnight GMT 15th Tue
GL out there

I was looking forward to it as well, although after what you did to Hudd first game, I am not so sure anymore (still can't afford apothecary) Anyway, 9 pm wednesday sounds great, though if anything happens or some other time suits you better, I am flexible.

I may have beaten him up, but crucially I couldn't beat him....six seasons and counting and I don't think I ever have! Anyway, 9pm tonight should be great. My son is out til 8pm and usually fast asleep instantly on returning home, yay grandparents! If there's a problem or delay I'll let you know asap but I don't expect one, it's just in case. Genuinely looking forward to this one, see you on the field of honour sir.

1-1 between Hoggy's high Elves and my Nopes. Another tie. Hoggy played fantastic defence, rode his luck a few times (I fouled twice-two sending offs. triple one twice on pickups/bounce for me, he succeeded dodging into FOUR tackle zones to pow a 1D on my carrier, three times succeeded on 6+ rolls without a rr to save a score, not a single skull on 1D blocks) but as I said to him ingame, the dice may have helped him but his excellent defensive play put him in a position where the dice had the chance to do so. He kept apologising for his luck! I don't think he knows just how good I am at rolling ones...I was screwed by Good Old Nuffle a few times, but eventually managed to secure the ball to stop him going 2-0 up and equalise. Also, 55 blocks, 1 cas...I guess I used up all my luck vs Hudd! However, on the flipside, looking at injury and armour rolls...Hoggypare didnt roll ONE 10+ with 2d6 in 18 attempts, and the only armour break he had THE WHOLE GAME was a stun on my rookie runner! I don't think I've ever seen such a bloodless match with dorfs! GG Hoggy, you played like a veteran and deserved the tie. Hope to play you again soon. Have to say though-you hit like a girl Match report
