“The Guardians took on this futile match knowing they would lose due to nigglings and handicaps for one reason - lots of Fanghorn fans!!!

Unfortunately, some below average gate rolls meant the Guardians ended up with no money despite whoring themselves out for the thrashing which was inevitable even without one of the four handicaps being virus (11 players, 6 with niggles).

I only scored 4 cos my opponent was happy for me to score some one turn TDs - the more I scored, the more he got the ball back to advance his own players.

It was a fun match in the end despite me only having four players for almost the entire second half. But my team survived, and got a FF though 10 K would have been better cos then I would have a new Thrower. Instead, I got a stack of SPP and got a few players closer to their next aging roll...”
