“Both the team and I have been away from the game for close to three months now, so for us to choose to play a team with both a high casualty count and a monster like Grik-Rok on the books may seem a little bloodthirsty, especially when the current Dig Dug roster could only manage 9 players for the game. When our opponent choose to apo the aforementioned nasty (4 niggles, so no surprise) our worries were beginning to look a little more concrete..... but as it turned out it was a gentler return than we had been expecting.

The short fellas took every opportunity in the opening stages to put the boot into the mutant, and with a BH result coming from a turn 3 foul we could breathe easier. Having been a little distracted we went 1-0 down, and faced up for the return. Unfortunately 3 heat exhaustion rolls later and we were down to 5 Dwarves, and no way to stop it going to 2-0.

Second half went one apeice as the Dwarves managed to reduce the numbers to more than even, but by that point it was too little too late. The game finished 3-1, but the result in this case was second fiddle to us getting back in the saddle.

Player of the Game: Markau got the boot on Grik-Rok and chipped in with a TD also.”
