“This is a match I did not expect to win. I came into it without a bench or a single tackler. Menona had a pair of mighty blow/tackling blitzers as well as a pair of guards and a sure handed thrower.

I was fortunate because the only CAS I caused was on his thrower. Still, guard was used well and my ball stripper had -2die blocks that worked out all but once. The other two AG5 players were able to scoop the loose ball.

I thought I had another score in the first half but I got snake bitten and he evened it before half time.

The second half started with my blitz and then I got another defensive TD later due to my ball stripper.

I screwed up and gave him a final play to tie it with some fancy pushing. I got greedy and tried to stab the M9 catcher on the LOS with Zara. Then I tired a vanity pass to get my rookie thrower and SPP. He fumbled it in range for the catcher to make a go for the ball and the tie. I was fortunate it did not work out.

Great game Menona. I look forward to our next one.”
