Dirty Dozen 0 2 Hunky Spooners That the Spooners first block resulted in a kill kind of wrote the story of what was to come. The hapless zons with a 530 TV disadvantage were hopelessly underpowered to deal with the vicious chorfs.The first half ended 1-0 and with a second kill the poor zons were in a tight spot, 2 dead and 5 injured. Starplayer Herman survived every block blitz and foul only to be sent off at half time. A twelfth turn pitch clearance sealed the fate of the brave ladies and Spooners capped the game with a second TD.
Put on your red dress baby, Spleens is going to the ball!

Lancashire Jets (VALIS) 1-2 Get Your Rat Out!! (Penkoon)
Another undeserved victory for my jammy rats! And one that looks like it should confirm that I appreciate Selfy the most!
The Jets received the opening kick-off and dismissively carved through the Skaven defence. They were in position to score in T4 if they'd wanted to, but elected to stall. The rats attempted some kamikaze runs to disrupt the cage and prevent the score, to no avail. In T6 the Rat's switched tactics to trying to force the Brettonians to score early - literally forcing them by shoving the ball carrying Duke Humphrey Stafford into the endzone.
This gave the Rats 2 turns to try to score before the break. They sent 3 receivers into the Jet's half but the Bretonnians marked them all up. Unable to blitz any of them free, the Rats were forced to throw caution to the wind, lobbing the ball up to the doubly covered Squish Mitten who remarkably came down with the ball, dodged away from his markers and levelled things up!
With several KOs waking up it was 9 v 11 for the second half with the Rats receiving. However, a short kick off and a fumbled pickup looked to have spelled disaster. The game becaming a congested punching match in the middle of the pitch, with tackle zones everywhere preventing much movement or ball play. Outnumbered and with no guard this did not suit the Rats! However, they fell back on their tried and trusted strategy of throwing 1-die-blocks and making AG3-dodges. This nearly worked out very nicely when a scattering ball bounced straight into Furry Cup's hands, but he was unable to stay on his feet for long.
Undeterred, Stench Trench decided to have a go at ball carrying. He picked the ball up in a tackle zone and dodged away. He had to ride out several 2 die blocks from the Jets and make a couple more dodges, but he remained upright and when aided by some more single-die blocks from his team mates he was able to scamper away downfield over the next few turns. Foolishly, the Jets attempted their own single die block and AG3 dodge, which failed leaving him free to take the lead for the Rats.
In the dying seconds Fat Sam killed Furry Cup (and the apothecary was useless), to go with an earlier strength bust for Minge.

Caiman Excise Dodgers 3 - 0 Birkenhead Legends
An absolute farce of a bloodbowl game. Wizards failed, end zone GFIs failed, pick ups failed. skink journeymen broke cages solo. Ridiculous. The only thing that didn’t fail was the halfling master chef, which might account for the rest.

Hunky spooner! It seems you are my date to this whole playoffs dance thing. I have never been before - what should I wear? I can play most anytime on the weekend but I am in the US so depending upon where you are located, weeknights might be rough for you. I can usually play beginning at 5:30 PM Eastern time. Let me know what is convenient to you. As long as the plague is in play I am home most of the time I am not at work Og

The last match of the division saw Short stuff beat (in many senses of the word) Imp's elves 2 to 1.
On the overview board, Short Cut is the third highest ranked team. Still no place in the playoffs?
If not, I should have changed the team in the buttplug to Short Cut. How do I do that, Valis?

Blackspine Manticores (DaImp) - 1 vs 2 - Short Cut (Haugster)A season that started with so much promise ends in a sad whimper for the Manticores. In truth the Dark Elves had several chances to win this game but just couldn't hold their nerve when it mattered. Lets not go into the details here, but despite 1 dead and 2 missing the next game the manticores march on in their search for glory. Could they find it in the Overseer's Buttplug? Rumours are flying around the Red Duke has been visiting Mistress Pain

Angry Vomit 0-1 Hunky Spooners
A hard fought ,tight game with plenty of blood and overall an equal share of good and bad luck for both teams. The game started badly for the Spooners as novice coach Spleens forgot he was receiving the ball, used the wrong set up, hastily ran to pick the ball up before doing anything else, failed to pick up the ball and watched as the vomit rolled all over the chorfs for the first three moves.
Somehow, the Spooners retained possession and with a quick turn fortunes ”Nuffle be praised” Weeky Snank broke through the vomit and ran in a touch down late in the first half
The second half brought a pitch invasion and a kick that landed the ball in the Vomits touch-zone. The Orcs never really found their feet in this half and desperate tight tense game became even tenser tighter and closer. Blood was spilt in buckets. The Spooners wizard put an end to any last ditch hopes by flattening the only contender for a TD and the ball remained on the floor in several tackle zones from each team where it had lain for three turns.
Great fun for these two play-off-virgin coaches. A costly match for both teams. Spooners will go through missing their two top chorfs Kissedoff Punt and Cupid Stunt ,mino Berty Dumhole and Weeky Snanks , with Dodge, Sure Hands and Sidestep,the only scorer in the team

Lancashire Loverats v Get Your Rat Out! (Quarter Finals)
This was a game where the defences took a night off. One team received.... scored, then the other team received..... scored.
Back and forth all game. Armour was rarely broken, so when the teams lined up for overtime, it was still 11 v 11.
It was in the hands of nuffle who would win the toss and elect to receive...... and score.
It wasn't me.
Final score:
Lancashire Loverats 4-5 Get Your Rat Out
