Match report- Bad Bay Packers v Ork knee eye Sanders
the game kicked off on a beautiful day, a crowd of 17000 looking forward to some carnage.
and the crowd was not to be disappointed, as early on, one player from each side was stretchered off unconscious. The Packers fielded a guest player in the form of Zara the slayer, and she was soon in the thick of the action, using the sharp needle shes famous for, and started a feud with the sanders 2 Black Orcs.
As for the ball, the Packers started in possession, first trying one flank, then passing it to the other, looking for a breakthrough. The orcs dug in, and most players found themselves in a melee. Forming a defensive wedge round the ball carrier, the Human team advanced very slowly, until the Orcs suffered a turnover, this giving the humans the chance they needed, running through the Orc lines and scoring.
The Sun now really started to beat down, shining right into the eyes of the players, making throwing more difficult. The Packers kicked off and eventually an Orc collected the ball. In the centre of the pitch, the Black Orcs and the troll, lashed out and pushed the Humans back.
With time running out, the orcs really needed to throw the ball, as one blitzer had broken free of the scrum. The crowd held its breath as the Orc thrower launched the ball forward. amazingly the Blitzer grabbed the ball and stumbled over into the endzone. With the whistle going for half time the game was tied at 1-1, as was about as equal a game as you can get.
Sun was now a little lower, so now not in the players eyes. The Packers kicked off, and the usual scrum in the centre of the pitch ensued. with time running out, the game was as tight as ever, just one mistake would win the game. Eventually that mistake came as an orc failed a block, and with the very last move of the game the Packers crossed the ball into the endzone to win 2-1.
In the early stages of this prelim season, the Packers find themselves 2nd , after playing 1 game, and the Sanders 3rd after playing 3 games!
