Quoted from another post but taking it up there would hijack that thread a bit too much

Dodge away and keep one space from your opponent, perhaps? |

Dodge out and prevent forward movement. (If possible seperate the opposing team). Aim for the ballcarrier and do a quick counter-attack if you get the ball.

Basically elven defence = guerilla warfare...
Or like the SAS... in, hurt them, and out before they can do anything in reply... |

Take risks to snatch the ball. Don't leave players in TZs unless you need to to get a good chance at attacking the ball. Keep retreating and holding a line until you get that shot at the ball. |

Tackle, Diving Tackle and Side Step. Force your opponent to roll as much dice as possible.
Get 2-4 players with sidestep and diving tackle. And a couple fast blitzers with either tackle or strip ball. |

get a couple of players with leap and strip ball, jump into cages then pick up the spilt ball and run like a schoolkids bum after a vindaloo. |

Doesnt this just give them more chance to beat on you like an unwanted step-child ? |

Take it like a man. Sooner or later he will fail and then you have a chance to get the ball and that´s all that matters in the end. |

Curious reduction on how to defend with elves IMO. At least I don't play like that. Sometimes but not always. Exemple: vs dwarves, I kick deep, run quick at them and man mark the guys that could help them out. ok I ll take blows but it's worth the risk. |
