“Ogre vs ogre rookie game. Both teams are absolutely identical.

We kick first and suffer 3 gobbo KOs in the first few turns while they get one sent off on the first foul of the game. Meanwhile they have run the ball through to our endzone and start stalling out the clock. We score a BH vs an ogre but they counter with a -AV injury on one of ours. The two teams spend their turns punching each other, and we manage to BH a gobbo before they score.

3/3 of our sleepy goblins wake up with 2 attempts and we set up 9 vs their 8 to receive the 2nd half kick.

We burn up our only RR early, with a 2d block coming up double skulls, and then fail to pick up the ball for the first two turns. Meanwhile 2 gobbos chase forwards, push one of our gobbos away from the ball, dodge on and steal it! We follow this up with more double skulls but at last one of their gobbos trips up on a dodge and we're able to recapture the ball.

It only lasts a second as they can POW with an ogre and get a perfect scatter for a gobbo to steal it back. We blitz for a double both-down, KO'ing their gobbo but again the scatter is into 0 tackle zones. A gobbo dodges through, picks it up and just needs a single GFI into the endzone.... but KABLOOMY! He's been blown up!!! Was that a landmine!?

We then finally have 3 charmed turns, getting the ball from right by our endzone down with a series of handoffs and a gobbo-gobbo pass to score on T15!

They have a turn to try and TTM, with a pitch invasion to help them.. but they drop the pickup.
