“A rare win for the troubled Gang Warriors here and a well needed 80k winnings at the end.
We scored quick in turn 2 as we allowed their Beast to get almost straight at our carrier when he blitzed through to him. We knocked the thing out though and handed off the ball from one blitzer to another to score. For the Nurgle offence they then sorely missed their Beast and a lone rotter who had suffered without block, while we had Xavier out. We kept the pestigor and his cage from advancing much by nibbling at a corner but they moved forward in turn 5. But with only 3 players helping him Vermin had a chance to blitz him down. Eventually Mercy got the ball when it was put free and she raced off. The Nurgle blitz attempt faltered on an apparent misclick and then Mercy was blitzed free with a brutal kill by Swan so she scored the important 2nd td.
Second half the Beast was back but we were still playing 10 v 9. With a long kick we were confident of keeping the lead and proceeded to hassle the ball carrier. We got him down but the ball was somehow got back and handed off to a nurgle warrior. Eventually in turn 8 we had a chance for a td but the handoff failed. Fun game with the first half steal being key.”
