“Juicy Dark Elves received in the first half. Despite the pouring rain they soon gained control of the ball, caged up, and drove into the rats' half. The rats used their speed to reform their defensive line, not getting too close but bashing where they could and getting in a few tasty fouls. Juicy elves were clearly not in a rush to score and were looking for a last turn TD. Rats got a tackle zone on the ball carrier but not enough to stop the Juicy elves in their tracks.

Second half saw the Rats form up a loose screen on the flank, but a failed handover meant the ball never reached it. Fortunately they came out of the resulting scramble with the ball and a GR retreated to the backfield as the remaining rats split between attempting to hold off the elves looking to threaten the ball-carrier and probing for an opening in the offence.

Gutter Runners managed to do what they do best and with one reroll left, a 3+ pass, 4+ catch, and two dodges the Rats managed to run in the equaliser at the death.

Happy with the result and a good game against an opponent who played well throughout.
