(Toadstool Times - CPI):
The Mangers topped the previously undefeated Jell-O Crusaders in a 10 round defensive
slugfest. The score was 1-0 with 9 total casualties doled out. The gobbos pushed their
winning streak to 3 games, riding solidly on the brawny shoulders of Star Ogre Throb'n
Org'n.
The early news out of the Skaven dugout was that a Flu Bug had run through their locker
room leaving one linerat heaving in the corner and the rest of the team looking a bit green.
The Manglers won the toss and took the opening KO on a touchback. Throb'n took the ball
and started it up field. The nimble Skaven closed off the left so the goblins reversed the
field to the right.It was a race to see who would have enough players as the the goblin
cage slowly evaporated as it moved up the field. Finally on turn 8, the Skaven had bottled up
the goblins in the corner, leaving it to Clyde 'the Glyde' to sneak right underneath the legs of
the skaven defenders for the TD, leaving the rats without enough time to score.
The Skaven took the deep second half kick and advanced it quickly into scoring position.
Throb'n opened a corner of the cage. The Skaven rat-ogre moved up on a blitz
only to slip on what looked like a Banana Peel! That left the gobbos with the opening
they were looking for. Throb'n separated the ball from the carrier and the rat's shoulder as
well, and the Ball bounced straight into his capable mitts. From then on the Gobbos played
keep-away eventully running out the clock. When the horn sounded there were three
Manglers on the pitch.
