The game started with pouring rain and the Amazons choosing to receive. The crowd were wild with anticipation of the newly arrived Viper Queens.

Early on Tony the Werewolf stuns a blocker!
Disaster strikes for the linewoman as she takes herself down with the Zombie but at least he’s KO’d
The wraith takes down the thrower who thought she could sneak past of the left hand side
Hornbill KO’s the Jaguar
The thrower fails a 1 die on the wraith, and El Graucho realises his coaching was way off in his decision

The first half ends 0-0, despite the pressure the Bits of bob hold strong.

Kick off for the second half ready!
Wait – she needs to go to the loo following a dodgy Groggs Roll
Hornbill also suffered although he battled on.

Amazons down to 5 against 7 players.

The ghoul is stunned after positioning himself to be blocked but the ball is dropped unhelpfully into an open space.
The Jaguar fails on a 2 die block against a zombie. Skulls!
Revenge as a lineman is KO’d by the Jaguar

El Golfo tries to sneak in a dodgy regeneration roll which is noticed by El Graucho as “not in the rules” and the roll is reluctantly squashed.

It looks like it’s going to be a 0-0 draw but the Vipers try one last Girls Own attempt to score.

Last turn – what will happen? Can there be a touchdown?
A blitz is required to clear the way for the Jaguar to get to the endzone…
2 rushes and she’s in position
The linewoman jumps up and dashes to pick up the ball. Success on a 4+
It’s going to require a 6 on the throw! Oh my word! It’s landing in the Jaguar’s square!
OMG – she’s caught it. It’s 1-0 to the Vipers!

Unbelievable play! Simply unbelievable! That goes into the hall of fame as a play.

The end brings out the ladies dancing on the pitch (calm down El Golfo!) as the Vipers beat the Bits of Bob 1-0 in a nail-biter.

The next game is Viper Queens vs Fangs for the memories. Due to fading light the game is played in a rush so the ladies don’t have time to change.

Viper Queens (Amazons)Fangs for the memories (Vamps)
Python Thrower1 Thrower with Block
Piranha Warrior Blitzer1 Runner
2x Jaguar Blockers, Harriet and Sally, both with Block1 Vargheist (with Pro)
3x Eagle warrior linewomen4 Thralls

Good weather as the teams run out to set up, with the sneaky refs get a pay-off by both teams to get a bribe each.

Typical start of picking up the ball and rolling a 1.
The Vipers boosted by the last game, step it up and target the thralls. KO’d
Casualty.
Carrying on with targeting the thralls another ends up on the sideline
Where’s he gone?
There he is – The unhappy crowd giving him a good thumping
Down three thralls, the Amazons walk into the endzone
On the restart the crowd, now blood thirsty, invade the pitch and stunning three from Fangs. It’s going to take courage to plough on
A fantastic team talk shows some brilliant coaching by El Golfo, giving Fangs a reroll
Weary of being in the Vargheist’s range the Vipers hang back.
Not afraid of hitting a woman the Vipers take out the runner.
This just gives the thrower the strength to blast through the Viper’s line, dodging through tackle zones. He gets to the endzone and waves the ball at the Vipers but the showing off is his downfall, literally, as the turfmonster gets him.
A jaguar KO’s another thrall.
The throw manages to pick the ball up from beside the thrower and dodge out to relative safety.
The thrower manages to push himself out of the endzone

The ladies attempt to dazzle the Varg by surrounding it.

Feeling cocky the Jaguar attempts a 2 die block to push the thrower into the crowd but he’s not having any of it. Jag down!
The Varg is in his own world as he’s lost his shit as he pushes a linewoman into the crowd.
The thrower joins in by injuring another
But it’s too little too late as the Amazon thrower strolls into the endzone.

2-0 to the Vipers in an enthralling game… or should that be de-thralling game…ha ha.

It was a good pair of games.
