“Classic Winnipeg Rottawa matchup, with bone crushing hits, vicious fouls and a death on the pitch. Fun for the whole family.

By the end of turn two Rottawa had fouled their way to a man advantage with two beasts KO'd and a vicious foul by Vincent Palebone sidelining pain-bringer Brendan Dunn. A timely apothecary patched up Brendan but he was out for the drive.

Brendon Labatte was Winnipeg's response hitting flesh golem Crisp Burns so hard he did not regenerate. Winnipeg played a disciplined defense despite their dwindling players holding Rottawa near the line of scrimmage until a failed dodge by Greg Battle opened a hole for the werewolves to swarm through. 1-0 Ottawa at the half.

Winnipeg started the second half down 2 players but LaBatte once again stepped up to negate the man advantage, crushing Jim Croode and killing rookie rotter Ron Reeks. Dunn added to the carnage badly hurting golem John Kryptike.

As the clock wound down and Rottawa's heavy hitters on the bench a valiant defense by the wolves could not match the power and guard of Winnipeg's warriors.

Larry DeClaw appeared to have league leading rusher Buck Pierce pinned near the sidelines, but a hand off and Chaos Warrior sneak put Brendan Dunn in the end zone for the tie.”
