“We started out playing 11 on 8, with one dirty player on each side, as Vinnie's team was clearly in need of a recovery match.

I was a little surprised, therefore, when the second turn saw Vinnie foul one of my ghouls, but I cleverly fouled an ogre back - then he fouled a werewolf, and I fouled an ogre, etc, etc...

By turn 2 of the second half I had all of his players off the field, (the first time I have ever managed that ) because I was a lot luckier, and because I had more players to assist fouling, and I was thinking I was going to win 5-1, or maybe try for a TD with a zombie in a 4-1 game.

Unfortunately, my team doesn't have a kicker, and I bad-kicked it out of bounds. With no one to give the ball to, the ball just vanished from play, and my dreams of easy SPPs vanished with it.

A brave, if somewhat crazy, match by my opponent, who did, I think, play very well with what he had. ”
