Well, Blainkhard hires Varag in spite of having a much stronger team (more guards, more players etc) but still has trouble against my orcs. They fail some gfis and drop the ball, but my troll KOs himself on a gfi and we cant secure the ball. They pick it up on a 5+ and then try a pass (one of many rather risky plays by them) which fails. We get the ball but they soon recover it with Varag. I get a onedicer on him in spite of all the guard, but the skull sends my player to KO. A dodge KOs a third of mine :) and Varag can soon run away and score last turn.

We get back all three KOs (none of them came back for the last turn first half) and can field 11 players without the goblin. We manage to badly hurt two of their players and KO another quite early. However, a double skull badly hurts one of ours, and they do several powonedicers to break through to our ball carrier. Then we kill our thrower with a two dicer (apo fails). They do more and more onedicers, and even get a double pow on a two against. However, a gfi to get some assists fails before some of his players stood up. This allows me to get the ball and score last turn for the tie.

No cuento los doble unos ni me quejo de ellos, si no hay un monton monton de ellos. Es verdad q Blainkhard tenia un poco de mala suerte a principios, pero hacer dos gfi con el lanzador sin protegerlo solo para usar lo para assists era un riesgo bastante grande. Yo tampoco estaba jugando bien todo el tiempo - asi que creo q el empate era un resultado justo.

Translation to english: I dont count double ones nor do I complain about them, unless there is a huge amount of them. Its true that Blainkhard had some bad luck initially, but going for it twice with the ball carrier without any protection just to use him for an assist was a rather big risk. I wasnt playing great all the time either - so I think a tie was quite fair.

Edit:
1. I know you notified me about Varag. Didnt say you didnt. Even though it is not required in the rules, I appreciate you did. I mentioned that because your team was much stronger than mine even without him - whenever my orcs manage a tie against a stronger team I want to remember that proudly ;).
2. You were making a box for you ball carrier? You tried to put him next to my st5 black orc in order to get an assist. But even if you would have gotten Carl Rodd down and formed a "cage" that would not have stopped Carl from twodicing your ball carrier next turn since he had stand firm. Thus I found that move risky - nothing more.
3. The second double one, well, I just wanted to say that I wouldnt have done it the same way. Since your player had blodge and stand firm, i probably wouldnt have gotten him down without tackle (and only player with tackle was the one who was suppose to pick up the ball). Thus, I would have first stood him up, and then done dodge (in original report i stated it was a gfi, but it was in fact a break tackle dodge, 2+, with rr) with the other. AND, I would most definetely had stood up the other two players that were down before that - one would, without any risk what so ever, have reached and put a TZ on either my blitzer that was to pick up the ball or the blitzer that was suppose to get the ball to score last turn. However, I didnt mean to offend you.
4. I already admited in my original match report that I did mistakes too. For instance, it was quite foolish to block with my blitzer after using the rr earlier on. A double skull is not that rare, and I really shouldnt block when the risk outweighs the potential gain.
5. Finally, there were some misunderstandings during the game. Since I was partly responsible for them - I apologize, and hope we have a much more enjoyable game next time. I do have to say I did enjoy this one too. ”
