#11 Matthias Genita – Smashed Hip (-MA)
#14 Never Subotic – Dead (RIP)
[OBBA] season 27 - league 1: Round 1

================================================

Bob: "Hello sportsfans, welcome to our game recap for tonights OBBA match. This is Bob Bifford and besides me sits Jim Johnson for NBCCG."

Jim: "Howdy Bob! Tonight we take a look at one of the by now classics of OBBA - the apes from Rotterdam meet the Orcs from Orcmund."

Bob: "Yeah, Jim. That is a true classic. The teams have already met four times with the Orcs being on a three-game-winning streak. I always have to remember Klopporc, the Orcmunds’ coach, saying after their first match and only loss against Blijdorp so far something like: “We wunt forg’ dis. We rememb’ an’ dan we take revenge!” He has really made his words come true, Jim!"

Jim: "That's for sure, Bob. And you can bet he had some nice plans for tonights match which has ended only half an hour ago. But lets have a short look at both teams' situations before the match."

Bob: "Both teams started with huge handicaps into their match. Orcmund is missing star runner Henry Mickeysomething and rookie linorc Sokratis Papaunspeakable. They also have to moan about the loss of Eric Durmb, one of their famous squad of Blockers. He died in their recent preseason friendly from a murderous block by Denis Lathoud, long serving Gorilla for Paris Simyin Gang. Rotterdam on the other hand is missing Willem van Hanegem III. He received a harsh blow from Tony Watt, one of Tynecastle's Wardancers, during their loss in the first round of the League Cup. As far as I know he's still under concussion protocol."

Jim: "Indeed, Bob. Both teams have to compensate the loss of some of their key players. And the Orcs surely had in mind to cause the apes even more trouble. I can see Ugroth Bolgrot during warm up with the Orcs."

Bob: "Yay, I love the sound of chainsaws on the pitch. Let's hope he'll do some damage, Jim."

Jim: "Sorry to interrupt you, Bob, but the game has just started. The Orcs chose to go first which was to be expected given they hired Ugroth."

Bob: "Ooooh, that must have hurt! Just as the ball was underway the saw carved deeply into John de Wolf. Lots of blood dripping from the chain and the Gorilly is our for the game. What a start for Ugroth!"

Jim: "Yeah, that must have been what Klopporc must have had in mind with him. Okay Gündogan caught the ball and is now lurking behind his offensive line, waiting for the opportunity to go deep. But wait! What is that? That's Henrik Larsson II dancing around the Orcs' lines as if they were mere poles!"

Bob: "And he's brought Gündogan down, Jim. What a play! And Pierre van Hooijdonk even tops it as he runs in to pick up the ball, dodging all tackles on his way there! Now that must have been what Medon, the Ape's coach, had in mind."

Jim: "Very true, Bob, but both apes are in a dangerous situation now. See! That's what I meant! Larsson goes down to Marco Fyke and van Hooijdonk is knocked out by the saw, while Maurice Leader, star thrower for the Orcs, catches the ball."

Bob: "Just wait, Jim, don't go overboard on the Orcs. I am pretty sure the apes can take revenge there. And just as I tell you, fans, Bonaventure Kalou blitzes Ugroth who is hit by his own saw now. He follows Pascal Stencil to the KO box. Stencil stayed to close to the sidelines and was beaten up by angry Rotterdam fans."

Jim: "Numbers dwindling now fast for both teams, but the Orcs seem to have the better field position. Leader brings the ball to the right wide zone and carries it deep downfield under the protection of his teammates."

Bob: "Yeah, they are doing a very good job tonight, pushing Ove Kindvall into the crowd just opposite of where Stencil was beaten up. And the Orcs' fans go wild on him. Only with the help of the team's apo and some coaching staff does he make it back to his bench."

Jim: "And that's why Maurice Leader is his team's captain, Bob! Instead of making the touchdown himself he passes the ball to blitzer Swan Bender who then runs it in for the 1-0 lead. Nice drive by the Orcs - but didn't they score too early, Bob?"

Bob: "Some might think so, Jim. The teams line up now for Rotterdam's first drive. But what is that? A riot, Jim, a riot! And the ref just lets the clock run down! The drive starts with only seconds left on the clock and no chance for the apes to score."

Jim: "Do we have a discussion about the refs now, Bob?"

Bob: "No, WE certainly don't - but the fans will discuss this situation for sure!"

Jim: "And Rotterdam clearly is out for some revenge, Bob! Just look at Kindvall, his eyes are red with anger and the spit is flying from his fangs. I'd rather not get in his way now..."

Bob: "Neiter would I, Jim. Not sure how the Orcs down on the field feel now... And BOOOOM! That's what you get from making Kindvall angry! He just runs through Never Subotic, a rookie line orc. And you can bet that he won't come back. Is that his guts lying on the pitch there, Jim?"

Jim: "That must have hurt. Yes, they are, Bob. And looking at the staff who dragged the lifeless Orc from the pitch he won't come back ever..."

Bob: "Well, the fans are loving it, Jim, while the teams are lining up for the second half. The Orcs will have to kick. Van Hooijdonk picks up the ball and waits in the backfield, protected by a wide screen of apes."

Jim: "Maybe that screen was too wide. Swan Bender is finding a way through and blitzes the Onrangutan - but the furry one manages to stay on his feet and keep the ball. Seems like the Orcs overcommitted on that opportunity. Their center is now open and just as I say so the ape runs forward, hands off the ball to van Persie II and he penetrates deep into the Orcs' backfiel. Is he already through or can the Orcs catch him?"

Bob: "Well, Jim, it doesn't look as if they were even trying! They are just bashing away at there opponents. With so many of his players on the ground Medon gives van Persie a wink - and he easily steps over the scoring line to tie the game 1-1!"

Jim: "Bob, I think that was a mistake. The apes clearly could have stalled a bit longer there. But anyways - the game doesn't wait for ifs or maybes. The apes are kicking now and the Orcs are trying to get a quick touchdown. They send Bender and Fyke deep downfield as receivers and Gündogan brings the ball to the line of scrimmage."

Bob: "The apes bring down Fyke, but they can't hold back Bender. With some assistance he blitzes his way through to the end zone while, after a quick hand off from Gündogan to Leader the ball is in the air - AND HE CATCHES IT, JIM, HE CATCHES IT! TOUCHDOWN ORCMUND!"

Jim: "Wow, what a nice play from the Orcs. AND LOOK AT KALOU, BOB, LOOK AT KALOU! HE'S NOT MOVING - HE'S DEAD, JIM! That was an ace play from Bender there - killing the frenzied Bonobo while going deep for the pass from Leader! The game is now 2-1 for the Orcs - but can Rotterdam start another come back? Time is already running out here, Bob."

Bob: "You are right, Jim. That must have been the play of the day for sure! Such a harsh blow for the apes to lose their star Bonobo. But they start a desperate rush down their left wide zone. Gábor Babos is running at the top of his speed along the sideline, protected by Taument, Cruz, and de Goey"

Jim: "The sideline hasn't been a friend to either team, Bob..."

Bob: "I can see it coming, Jim. Leader and Bender are blocking Babos' way and Gündogan blitzes Taument, bringing him down and pushing him into Babos who promptly loses his balance, stumbles over the side line and vanishes into the crowd. Several seconds go by before the ball is thrown back onto the pitch by the fans."

Jim: "But it is not over! Rotterdam has still a chance at the tie. De Goey is trying to blitz Gündogan to clear the path for Larsson - and he fails! Gündogan clearly outsmarted him there. That's game now, Bob, that's game!"

Bob: "It is, Jim! The Orcs win a stunning match against there rivals from Rotterdam with 2-1. It was a gorgeous match, Jim, lots of heat on the pitch and three touchdowns."

Jim: "And we also witnessed the death of a star. I am sure the fans will never forget Bonaventure Kalou who collected an astonishing 22 casualties during his career with Rotterdam."

Bob: "He will surely be missed, Jim - but that's Blood Bowl, fans. It has Blood in its name for a reason..."

Jim: "And with that we have to say good bye, sports fans! I am Jim Johnson..."

Bob: "... and I am Bob Bifford for NBCCG..."

Jim: "... and we hope to see you back with us for our next match report..."
