Hashutites 1

Bultar the Great

Bognor Bograts 2 Head Lyhce-Creep 2

Head Lyhce-Creep was the hero for the Bognor Bograts with a fine brace as they maintained their 100% record to stay top of the table, whilst simultaneously inflicting a first defeat for reigning champions Hashutites. The defeat ended the QMLS record for longest clean sheet record (8).

The swarming gutter runners stole and scored the fastest recorded TD in QMLS history.

Both teams entered the game with a 100% 5-0-0 record with huge expectations. Victory would virtually secure a play-off spot and have the advantage in the race for the Divisional Title. The free-scoring rats versus the impregnable Dwarfen defence. THIS was billed the game of the round as the two pre-season favourites for a finals berth went toe to toe and the game did not disappoint.

The fuse was lit in the very first minute as the Bograts blitzed the Hashutites offensive line with Rogre Breaknut frenzying through to lead block the speedy gutter runners into position and rush the ball carrier Bonecatcher, who froze under the scrutiny. Head Lyhce-Creep collected the fumbled ball to score to the tune of pandemonium in the stands!

Rogre Breaknut edged the battle of frenzied beasts.

It was a dramatic end to Hashutites' long clean sheet record that had stretched an incredible 8 games with the delirium in the stands spilling over into a full scale riot, which forced the officials to a halt the game and re-start at 1-0.

Hashutites recomposed and steadily rolled up field in dwarfen fashion chipping away at a resolute Bograts defence. Rats were laid by the wayside and the numerical advantage swung in Hashutites' favour leaving hobbo Bonecatcher to hand off to bull centaur Bultar the Great to level the scores on the stroke of half time.

Hobgoblins know their place and serve their overlords on and off the pitch.

To the disgust of the Chaos Dwarf's coaching staff, the Bograts succeeded in seducing the Bloodweiser Babes from Hashutites to their corner. It was a master-stroke of deception rewarding the vermin to field 9 rats for the second half.

Every rat laid their body down for the cause as they attempted the risky ploy of delaying a score. Chiqui Arsol sat deep in his half and beckoned the great bulls to charge through and watched with venomous glee as Marnak Darkstabber tripped over the hazards of Farmer Maggots Stadium.

Anything elves can do, hobbos can do too.

The maniacal laughter sent chills down the Hashutites spine, as they watched the gutter sprint through and set up Creep for his second of the night. Knowing that victory was out of reach, the Chaos Dwarfs tried to pummel through the Bognor line and had to play with great risk.

From the restart, a slither of a gap was enough to entice Creep through on the loose ball and rush toward the end-zone, but his punt failed to put the ball safe as the hobgoblins fashioned an unlikely play that would not be out of place in the Elven repertoire. It was certainly end-to-end high octane blood bowl from the two titans.

The rare sight of a surfed bull centaur excited the rowdy crowd.

Nonetheless, the scurrying overgrown rodents managed to seal any running lanes and inflict the first defeat in eight games for the Hashutites.

Riska's Most Valuable Player: Head Lyhce-Creep was the scorn of the chorfs with his defensive contribution and both touchdowns. His performance sealed a victory to savour for the rats after the bitter disappointment of missing out on the title last season.
