Dirty dwarves v Clean elfies
2-1 for the elves.
The match started atrociously for the pointy eared fellows. 3 AV breaks in the first 4 blocks put me on the back foot(only 1 was KO'ed, though). "no problem" I thought to myself. I'll just exploit the gaps and divide his team in two, right? Sounds easy enough... until the 1's start rearing their ugly head. I got a good deep kick and was able to get a single catcher into the backfield before I failed the next dodge. Well, the Nailers brought the ball upfield into a semi-cage (because of the Wizard lurking) and kept bashing away. I got bashed pretty good, with players getting stunned and KO'ed. Around T5, I figured it was enough and let loose with the fireball. Fireball took down only one corner, but I still had a 1D shot at the blockless BC. POW, he was down and the ball bounced favorable to the AG4 dorf blitzer who fumbled the catch but used his Pro and was able to keep the drive alive. Anyhow, a bunch more turns of bashing and I had 4 KO'ed players and was down 0-1 going into the second half.
So, some crappy positioning (by me, ofc) and a good kick by the Nailers and the Clubbers' chances were looking slim to even the score. Thank god for migh agility and great movement. Oh, and some fortunate both-down results on the PO slayer as he was about to hit my catcher. So, I switched sides, got a few of his players out of position, hugged the sideline, and eventually passed my way to an "easy" TD. 1-1 with 4 turns to go.
Again, deep kick and I take my players out of position to try and get a surf so I can even up the numbers. Nope. Nuffle had other plans. I'm waay out of position and the dorfs manage to bring the ball upfield with a simple handoff. The AG4 blitzer, however, needs a GFI to score and will give me two turns to equalize for the potential 2-2 draw. Nails decided to cage up and attempt the win. I don't blame him. However, he only has a single guard on the cage which means I can leap in for a 1D blitz on the BC. So, I mark the cage to take away the assists and take the BC down. Ball lands in 2 TZ's. This is where the match is decided as the AG6 catcher waltzes in, picks up the ball, and long-passes is to safety. Only 2+ rolls are needed and I finally manage to not roll any 1's. The Nailers still have a shot at the BC as I was dumb and didn't place him out of harm's way. However, two GFI are needed and will only get a 1D block. Nuffle shines on the Clubbers and the dumb longbeard stumbles leaving me to GFI my way to a stunning victory.
Final stats saw the Nailers fail 4 of 6 GFI and break AV 20 times (for only a single cas). The Clubbers managed a whopping 63% dodge rate and broke AV once. I swear, I completely stole this victory. Thanks again for the match, Nails!

Gold delivers it's promised excitement! Sounds like an absolute ripper! It wasn't. Not until the T15 shenanigans did I play well. Seems like both the coach and players were suffereing from a New Year and Silver championship hangover

MD2 Group 2 2-0 to Laphter, the ref was biased, taking the bribe and still sending off Charzel the gobbo on the first attempt. He hardly touched him....... The game saw some aggressive play from the rats with my guard/tackle blitzer being given the option of death or a slightly different death by the apo, i'm sure he just uses snake oil in a poultice. White Tusk the rookie thrower followed shortly after at the end of the first half but not before Mooney the gobbo managed to stick the landing and try and dodge past a gutter Runner only yo trip over a bit of gravel on the pitch (rolling snake eyes) Thanks for the match weresquid and good luck with the rest of the season.

So.... you know those matches where you win, but it just feels like you've lost?? Yeah, this match vs Trucido really felt like it.
I was up comfortably 2-0 going into the second half. I get the ball, and all I need are a few SPP to really make this team pop. Then the dice and Ser Nuffle get involved. FFS. Words can't describe the frustration. All I have to say is, check the replay. I really want to ruin the surprise, but I don't want to ruin the surprise, y'know? Just... check the replay.
Anyhow, final score was 2-0 for the stupid Clubbers. I;m going to go sacrifice my fucking cats or the hamster to the gods now...

MD 4 Nurgle Vs. Necromantic 1 - 0
I would say this game SUCKS........but in the end of this one, I almost felt sorry for Parrigan.....
Game started with me winning the fans.....+1 fame.....great....then came the kick off.....throw a rock.....and there we go, 1 dead beastmen for me...and ofc if was my killer beastmen, block, MB, PO, claw, tackle, dauntless.....and no regen =( well got a few of Parrigans players out in the box to and manages to get the ball out of hees hands before he could make the first TD....
Second half......kick off.....Throw a rock.....WTF......Injured one of my Rotters, ohh my the Parrigan fan club really know how to throw, maybe Parrigan shouldt keep and eye out for a new player out by the fans =)
Got a few more players out, and did hold the ball for the turn 16 td.....
All and all a okey game beside form the dead beastmen and a game where Parrigan really dident have the dices.

The rats win again, just like always! 3-1 to LAPHTER against the foul-happy Khemri Cardinals. A pretty painful match as expected. We suffered a few casualties and KOs while the khemri's losses were mainly from send-offs, but all in all they rolled too many stuns to turn all that MB and DP into a victory. The apo was wasted though, and we go into the next match with MNGs on the sacky gutter runner and a lineman, as well as a niggled ST4 blitzer. Could be worse. As much as our TV has risen this season it was only a matter of time before it nosedived. Most kickoff events gave rerolls to either the rats or to both teams, the free bribes allowed us to foul a bit more than usual but little came of it. My up-and-coming AG5 star scored after catching the ball in three tackle zones! Otherwise a good but pretty standard match. Thanks for the game tector , good luck in the playoffs. For the health of my rats I hope we never meet again.

Hot damn, zymotic... Wonder who's gonna be next to pay the butchers bill. Any takers? Apparently, both parrigan and devifish owed the butcher. Dead wolf on a failed dodge and dead AG4 ghoul on a failed GFI. Ouch.

Yep, dead level 4 wolf, niggled rookie ghoul (who was subsequently fired) and 30k in the bank. After cleaning house following their week 4 match, then getting smashed to bits this week, the WZC will be retiring as soon as this season officially ends. It was a good run, but 4-14-27 is the kind of legacy best left forgotten. They were no Yoricks.
