The other semifinal is scheduled to be played tonight at 21 server time, so a good bet would be to say sometime next week. But its good to know, so the coaches who are in the finals can make the small effort to tell people in advance when it will be played.

** Milford from the GLT **

the fans are arriving early to the stadium and the atmosphere is awesome. The fans are eating their brauts and dogs, the beer is flowing and we are almost to the point when the ladies will start taking off their shirts and waving them around over their head.

Over at the AB&C Uusiverikulho is going off as a huge money line favorite at 380 and Run with the Pack is going off at -410, the "book" is looking for some late "sucker" action to come in before the match on Run with the Pack.


It looks like a uphill climb for the necro scumm but they are not out of it yet. Get some timely Claw action with some juicy CAS/Regen rolls and then they will get some home cooking going.

But it does look like a very daunting task for the necro to overcome.

I think Run with the Pack gives them a serious run and a scare in this one. The Nurgle scumm win this one in OT 3-2.

Finals are scheduled for this Wednesday at 22:00 server time, and both coaches have also agreed that cKnoor can stream the match. I am pretty sure 99% of the specs will be cheering for humans, but I will have Jimmy in the stands with his eternal love for Papa Nurgle Wink

Stonetroll, we expect you to be cheering for the Humans as well! You'll just have to do it from the coaching box instead of the stands.

Nurgle for me, anyone who coaches Humans isn't taking the game seriously, and this is a major!

**Bob & Jim Pre-Game Review**

Bob: Good Night Blood Bowl fans! Wellcome to GLT Finals Pre-Match review by OBC SPORTS!
Jim: Hi there, Bob! Yeah, we have Nurgle vs Humans whoohoo!
Bob: Absolutely, Jim. Let's analyse the Nurgle team. Tell us Jim, What do you think of the Nurgle Warriors rotation?
Jim: All right Bob!. I would give them GRADE A as a unit. Nicely developed Warriors filling all 4 available positions. They add Tentacles/Stand Firm "spam" and a nice spread of skills which make them a top level unit.
Vesikannu is their A+ Player adding MB-claw + Tackle to the "spam" mix. j0de brings rare Blodging + Guard skills and Carnis adds Guard and guess what...very long legs!!. Last spot is filled nicely by veteran Warrior Naama.
On the down list, i'd say AGING. Blodger j0de suffers from (-MA) and (-AV) making him somehow vulnarable at 3-4-2-8 stat line. Carnis (-st) injury also limits this player value when combined with natural 4MA stat. Nevertheless, a top level Warrior unit and surely a source of constant headache for the hummies with TENTACLE/stand firm "Spam" and all those nice skills equipped.
Bob: True, Jim. Let's move now to Pestigors Rotation.
Jim: Thanks Bob!. Pestigors have suffered big damage during this tournament. They started as a 4 pestigor rotation and they will enter the final as a 3 pestigor rotation. They have lost C-POMBER MerryZ and veteran Ball Carrier Jan-Erik. Rookie Largo will replace them in the finals.
On the bright side, they still look a GRADE B/B+ unit to me Bob. It is short, true, but spots 1 and 2 are nicely filled by C-POMBER + Tackle + Juggernaut Henekka and Frenzy + Juggernaut + Wrestle + 2 heads Jopotzuki. I can see these two becoming a top target for human blitzers and foulers, though. If humans succeed removing them off the pitch...a chance for human glory?
Bob: We will see, Jim. Let's move now to the Beast. i quite like this beast Jim! Don't you?
Jim: Absolutely Bob!. She is a beast! oh, yes! +ST(6), Block, Guard, Stand Firm, Break tackle. Lovely! GRADE A+ to me.
Bob: All right then. Time for Rotters squad.
Jim: Well Bob, they supply the team with fodder and a couple of specialists. 4 rookie rotters lead by experienced rotter Angus Wuschelpelz (+Wrestle) take on fodder duties. Quarion8 does the dirty player job and Mr Red jr. is the kicker.
Quite interesting is coach Stonetroll last minute decision to give Sure Hands to kicker Mr Red jr.. The lack of a pestigor ball carrier specialist and the shortage of Pestigors have pushed coach Stonetroll to make an unusual choice. This should slow down offensive drives to Ma5 in exchange for preventing strip ball...who will be the winner of this trade? we will see how it unfolds.
Bob: True, Jim. Any final thoughts about Nurgle Jim?
Jim: Well Bob, not all is perfect in Nurgle Headquarters. They suffer from some aging at Warrior position. They are short of Pestigors and have lost one of their C-POMBERS.
However, they are clear favourites. They still have enough hitting power to smash humans into pieces. Tentacles "spam" is also ideal against humans...so this should be an easy win for nurgle.
Bob: Who knows Jim! Nuffle has some strange sense of humor sometimes. We will have to wait until next wednesday 22.00 BB time to know. Keep tuned Blood Bowl fans to OBC SPORTS. Good night!
Jim: Good Night!

** Milford from the GLT **

Hello FUMBBL fans from the Altdorf old Bowl for the final match of the Grotty Little Tournament. The fans are pumped and the tailgating for the Wed. throw down has already begun.

Fans are all over the row of a 100 taverns getting primed and drunk for the show down.

It is an awesome spectacle of "humanity" right now around here and the fans are very excited.

I will be releasing my picks on Tues from the AB&C and I will have a special guest with me to break down the match up.

Stay tuned.

**Bob & Jim Pre-Game Review**

Bob: Good Afternoon Blood Bowl fans! Wellcome to GLT Finals Pre-Match review by OBC SPORTS!
Jim: Hi there, Bob!
Bob: Hi Jim!. Humans made it to the finals. Humanity is really excited! High hopes they finnally unforlorn Humans...but is this possible Jim?
Jim: All right Bob!. Of course is possible...but it is going to be really hard for them. They are going to meet the best team in Ranked division this season, whohoo!!!
Bob: So tell us Jim, what are the humans weapons to beat those nasty Nurgle?
Jim: Prey to Nuffle!!! I am afraid Bob this is the best weapon they have. They will be hit hard, they will be forced to roll lots of dices, tentacles should prevent humans to display their fast-mobile game, they have lost a couple of key players, they will need to field rookies in key positions as Blitzer and Catcher and so on. Looks dark close to sheer black for humans my friend.
Bob: So, just surrender for humans?
Jim: No way Bob! We all want humans to win! they are the underdog, we love underdogs. Go Hummies! Seriously, there are some tiny loopholes that with the bless of nuffle they can exploit. Aging warriors, slower offence (ma5) with sure hands rotter, the lost of a C-POMBER and a short pestigor rotation that if removed off the pitch should slow down Nurgles greatly and allow for human mobility and speed. Is this enough?...maybe.
Coach Strider84 will need to get his team to play top quality Blood Bowl, he will need to be creative and selective in choosing targets, adapt to how the game unfolds, "guerrilla" punching where it hurts the most and...lots of luck! Not easy to make it happen though.
Bob: You said it Jim. There you have it Blood Bowl fans, the final is set. 33 hours to go for kick off. Good afternoon!
Jim: Good afternoon!

The HLP crew will be back just in time to support Strider84 and his Red Corsair. Several stops planned in the 100 taverns, even in the back road for the HoF induction!
