*Milford reporting from the Finals in Qualifier V **
Well Fumbbl fans the stadium is allready starting to fill up in anticipation of the finals in Qualifier #5. Once again the qualifier produces a titanic match up.
 Poems
VS
Extraordinary Brotherhood
Two of the top chaos teams in the Ranked DIV are locking horns in this massive throw down of a match. This match should be fun to watch. Poems comes into the game ready to smash the teeth in of the Brotherhood and bring the muscle for the job. The team is anchored by, the World Part 1 and There is Another Sky. Two killer CL/RSC Chaos warriors who will rend you into little shreds. But Poems also brings with them a unique qulaity, they have 3 AG4 beastmen and a ag5 Chaos Warrior. So they can also elf ball you and get you off your game. They trully have a double threat which will make them tough to knock out of the WO.
BUT
The Extraordinary Brotherhood are not phased by this in the least. They have scene it all over the years. They just need to get Savage Forester Howler up and running with his wing man Ripbrood the Grasping and they will be all right. The Brotherhood is not as agile as poems but they should be able to control the LOS and move the pile. Savage Forest will have his hands full with those two cl/rsc nasties on the other side but he is up for the challenge.
This should be a titanic match. In the end Poems has just enough in the tank to get it done in OT in a 3-2 win and advance to the main draw. My gut tells me it will be a low CAS game for some reason. I think both teams are more interesting in scoring and winning than a blood fest. BUT then again when ever I think it will be a bloodletting it turns into elf ball...so who knows this might just be a tombstone game for all I know.
Outside the gates security is tight as the WO security forces are on the look out for all PPM members. But rest assured Fumbbl fans no amount of security will be enough to contain the influence of the PPM. We will just have to sit back and wait and see if they stirke and take down a mutant or two.
So come on by and get some spec time in for this match, it will be a lot of fun.. OH check out the new feature: the new match time/scheduler that has been introduced. Go under WO Qulaifier and click on the upcoming matches to see the times and dates for all the matches that have been set up.
Brotherhood just pushes Poems around and gets the 2-0 win. Poems just could not get anything going all game long. |

**Milford reporting from the Finals in Qualifier #12**
Well another classic match as we have a XFL champion trying to punch their way into a main draw and a former main draw participant trying to get back in .
Cult of Shadows
VS
 Rata Blanca
Well the cult of shadows is back on the cusp of making another main draw in a major. They are itching to get back in the thick of things and have a shot at the WO championship. The Cult is anchored on the LOS by Rottweiler IV a massive ST6 troll that is a mountain. And his wing man is Famin VIII a ST5 CW who is able to punch holes in the defense with a devastating blitz move. These two players will be able to push around the Rata at will. And since its a finals the Cult has hired Ripper Bolgrot to add that extra firepower on the LOS and also a wizard of Slaneesh is lurking somewhere in the stands. They are not taking any chances in this one.
The Rata Blanca crew is going to have to rely on their speed, AG, cunning and the ability to run away and get some scores. Also lets see if they can summon the spirit that made them a XFL champion, maybe that experience will pay off and lead them to victory. They have no chance to push the chaos thugs off the LOS, although they bring with them Headsplitter to beef them up. I dont think Headsplitter is going to have a chance in this one but his extra movement might give the rats the needed edge when they hit the widezones to stretch the field to get in scoring postion. Also they have purchased a wizard for the match, that just might be the ace in the hole they need to pull this one out. Listrich the Blutauge is the only rat with any real firepower to contend with the chaos scum, but facing such a fromidable foe I think even Listrich will take the rats way out and allways be bahind the LOS out of reach.
This game on paper looks like it is all Cult of Shadow but I have this sneaky suspicion that the Rata Blance crew is going to give them a run for their money until half time. Once the second half kicks off the match will tilt towards the Cult and the KO and BH box will start to overflow with rats and the Cult will walk away with a 2-1 win and another main draw appearance. |

**Just some random thoughts from Milford**
What da hell happened to all the orc teams? they got beat up and beat down all tournie long and now it looks like the Indie Orcs are the last orc team standing.
Chaos rules the WO open up to this point...it looks like 5-6 Chaos teams could all make the main draw in the WO.
Skaven teams got the extra "love" at the start but man did they fall apart, only two skaven teams left standing with a shot to win a qualifier.
Once again Dark Elves rule the elf ball side of things wih 2 teams advancing to the main draw and another 2 possible could make it.
Looking at the two reamaing Wood Elf teams I see they are in classic form allready, beat to crap and just holding on.
I have noticed JJ Jones Jr. hanging out at the lottery HQ alot lately. Rumor has it that he is stacking the deck heavily in the Buccanners and Booty pirates way. Dont be suprised if one or both teams get draw back into the WO.  |

**Milford reporting from the Finals in Qualifier #1**
This is going to be a very interesting match up Fumbbl fans.
 Magerit Revengers
VS
 Lizards of Yumtum Mountain
The Revengers come into this match ready and primed to elf ball their way into the main draw. But they face a tough foe in this match. They also come into the game down a witch elf which will make it a little tougher. They are a really nice top loaded team with a solid core of 4 blitzers. They are going to have to carry the day because their linemen are just average. They also only have 2 tacklers which could pose a problem if the skinks get up and running. They have enough blodge to be able to control the Saurus on the LOS and be able to move the ball with alacrity.
The Yumtum crew is just average across the board. But dont let that mediocrity fool you. They have some power in their LOS and their skinks are starting to round out. They carry 3 DP's which is not the norm for Lizardmen. THey also have a OTS skink who could just be the tipping point they need.
This match is a toss up. I can make the case for both teams to win this match. My gut tells me that the Lizards some how manage to scrape out a victory in this one, some way some how. Quetzl, the Protector God is still mad at Nuffle for his rape job on his lads during preparations so get ready for some divine intervention in this one. The Battle of Nuffle VS Quetzl will also be played out with their pawns on the Blood Bowl pitch. IF that does happen then get ready for some really "funny" dice and some one bitching up a storm.
Both teams also caryy some nigglers and the Yumtum crew will get 2 handicaps. Both teams will be puckered up when the rolls for niggles comes out. Those niggle rolls are also very large in this one.
Yumtum some how manages to scrap by with a 3-2 win in OT.
and what is a revenger...a person who exacts revenge on a person who has exacted revenge? |

**Milford reporting from the finals in Qualifier IX**
Well Fumbbl fans the La Dwarfs just advanced to the main draw after a stellar victory over the Nenazas Cabeadas 2-1 in OT. The La Dwarfs just laid out the wood elves and stacked them up like cord wood and punched their ticket for the main draw. The Nenazas though played it out like champions and gave it their all but fell just short.
I can tell you Fumbbl fans as I sit here on the front row of press row the wood elves are hurting bad...it took them over 10 minutes to clear out the dug out as the stretcher crews were wheeling in and out. 5 of the woodies were carted off the field to the MASH unit out side. It was bloody! |

**Milford reporting from the finals in Qualifier VI**
Another Chaos smack down for your enjoyment.
Lone Stars
VS
Chaos Waste Crushers
Well the Lone Stars advance to the finals after that weird match up with the Booty Pirates when the vortex of chaos opened up and caused all kinds of disruption to the flow of the game. The Lone Stars are ready to punch, pile drive and lay the boot in to get back into a main draw. They are lead by their blitzing machine Roentgenium a CL/RSC killing machine. Lawrencium is their CW ball handler with a AG 4 who can deftly move down field with the "rock". The Lone Stars are a low down dirty and brutal team that will test the resolve of the Crushers.
The Crushers on the other hand are lead by Cleftchin Foulblood another blitzing crazy Beastman he is one big and strong dude, he can lay out a multiblock that will crush most foes. His wing man is Bloodspill Khorneson another huge Chaos Warrior infused with the power of Khorne. These two are going to have to bring their A game with them for the Crushers to win this one. But they are tough enough to take on the Lone Stars.
This will be a great match. It all hinges on the ref I feel. The Lone Stars are not shy of the low down boot and if they can sneak a few hits past the ref then they will be on their way to victroy. The Crushers just need to stay patient during the game and wither the early barrage of DP boots and they will be fine.
Both teams are sitting on piles of cash just waiting for someone to make the first move. The Crushers have 125,000 and the Lone Stars have 135,000...SO we can exppect some stars and wizards to make an appearance just before game time.
Another toss up game....In the end the Crushers will hold on and finally break the Lone Stars down late in the game and push over the winning score on turn 16 for a 2-1 win.
Lone Stars take this one 1-0 in a close fought match |

**Milford reporting from the finals in Qualifier IV**
Tired of all the chaos match ups yet? well here is an exciting match up.
 Fumbbl Tour Team
VS
 Name is Bond
The Fumbbl Tour Team is a really nasty Undead team that will give those dwarfs a serious run for their money. They have a bad attitude and a chip on their shoulder from the lack of success on the Tour. The team is anchored by two stellar mummies: Candlejack and Pigstar-69. These two forces on the LOS will be where the Tour Teams fortunes rest. If they can control the longbeards and take control of the LOS the undead will walk over the dwarfs. BUT they are not a two trick mummy team. They bring the Count for the match and have a stellar wight in Tasmanian. These guys are loaded and ready to take the qualifier.
Name is Bond is going to be hard pressed in this match. They need Die Another Day to have a steller match, he is the one that will stave off the undead horde. But he gets support from Zara so both of them are going to be going toe-to-toe with the Count and those mummies. The Living Daylights needs to work the edges and use his athletic prowess to make some plays and get some turnovers. The glaring weakness of the dwarfs is they have no player with strip ball, once the count gets the ball it is going to be a uphill climb to get the ball out of his hands.
This should be a great match up. But in the end I think the Fumbbl Tour Team will have enough firepower to overcome the Bond's and take the win 2-1 in a really fun and tactical match. |

**Milford reporting from the Finals in Qualifier VII**
Another Choas match for your viewing enjoyment.
 House
VS
 Drinking Problems
Well House brings the tackling Mighty Blow to this match against a 9 man Wood Elf team. On paper the Chaos thugs will be all over drinking problems and not even a 5th of whiskey will make the wood elves forget this match. House is a well rounded chaos team that is built to beat up on Elves, a lot of tackle to go around.
Drinking problems is in deep trouble in this one. Their only hope is their OTS catcher and their ability to move and run. If House can get their tacklers going they are going to go down hard in this one. They have some cash so either Jordell or wizard/freeboot player will be in order for the match.
If you like seeing Wood Elves getting pounded into the turf this is the match up for you!
House over Drinking Problems 2-1....The problems get an early score and then House just holds on to the ball the rest of way and gets an easy victory.
BUT
That dang wizard for the woodies will hang over the chaos scum like a specter....could the woodies pull it out with 9 guys?
House just takes it to the woodies and get the 2-0 win |

**Milford reporting from the Semi-final of qualifier X**
Well fumbbl fans the last of the orc teams has officially bit the dust as the Rhazgul's Judgment takes down the Indie orcs in OT that ended in a 0-0 TIE!!!! It was a classic match, check out the replay.
Well so much for all the talk about Orcs, AV9, easy mode and Green is best...Not in the WO this year. But Iam sure that the green wave will come back in the UI and rumble some teams into the main draw. |

Just going through the remaning games and so forth it was amazing to me that of the 31 Orc teams that entered the WO that not one of them even made it to the finals match of any of the qualifiers. That has probally never happened in a any major. |

**Milford reporting from the WO finals**
Well Fumbbl fans we had a lot of action this weekend as 12 of the 13 teams that will make the main draw are in place. We saw some great games over the qualifiers. But now we are getting set up for the main draw and the Lottery to get our final 16 teams in place to battle it out on the pitch for the WO championship. SO far the Dark Elves are running away with the tourney having 5 teams in the main draw and possibly a 6th in the final match of qualifiers.
Chaos also had a good showing with 3 winners and a possible 4th in the last game.
So here are your qualifier winners and main draw participants.
Black Revolvers
I Say you Fellows
Scanner Darkley
Magerit Revengers
Arthalian Rocketeers
House
Lone Stars
Extraordinary Brotherhood
La Dwarfs
Name is Bond
 Rata Blanca
 LoA
******
Here is the last match in qualifiers.
 Magia PotagiaII
VS
 Rhazgul's Judgement
Antother Dark Elf VS Chaos in this match. Two really nice teams going at it. The Judgements are a forlorn team that has a great shot in this match to notch another accomplishment down. They come in ready to bring the hurt on these darkies. But the PotaGia squad is stacked and should be able to deftly move the ball down field and control the game.
It all comes down to the classic bash vs ball match up. So another classic coin flip game.
Rhazgul's finishes out the qualifiers in style and just lays out the Darkies and fills up the Injury boxes for our enjoyment. Rhazgul's 2-1 over the Magia. |

Lone Stars take this one 1-0 in a close fought match |
Errr.... That one was never a close match it was domination from start to end. The only reason it was not 2-0 was that The Lone stars did not want to give the option of a turn 16 foul to the other team and instead chose to pass the ball for a chance to make a skill a pass that failed and thus the sore was only 1-0 but it was not even close to a close match. some where in the middle of second half the other team saw them self beat and reverted to saving what could be saved.
I know you would rather have it be a close match as you predicted against me but a close match is a right out. Watch the replay before you write  |
