“In the spirit of the good Reverend Spooner, this was a gool came against the cunning stunts, played entirely in the pouring rain! Nice friendly banter with opponent coach!

Elves had a tough time early on, fumbling the pick-ups and letting the gobbos and rats run in and grab the ball (Big Hand and Two heads were useful skills). Both touchdowns for the underworld were scored in the elves' drive in the first half, then the elves managed to wrest an elfball touchdown from the little monsters after halftime.

Bomber Dribblesnot had an excellent game, maiming three elves, two of them with a single bomb. A bribe and successful arguing kept him on pitch for 12 turns!

AG5 thrower Tosse Tossman is now AG4 and has retired gracefully. He will need to be replaced, but I'm too upset right now to think about that! Thankfully there's no shortage of agile players willing and able to chuck the ball around.

Malte Lindeman got his first recorded kill, trampling foul appearance gobbo Mary Goodnight II into the grass and leaving only a broken heap behind.”
