“When I was matched up against one of the top coaches in the Box I was a bit shaky. His 10-man human squad was outnumbered from the start with only 10 players. He did severely outguard my however and some turns I just couldn;t cope with the combination of speed and hitting power due to mass guard and some +ST players... On top of that Neophyte played expectedly great!

Bad press left half his team's fans at home and as a result we were able to "get the ref". Good positioning on his side and some very weakly rolled gang-fouls on my side meant that I couldn't cash in on this advantage. He stalled out the whole first half and I started the second half unsure about the future. Especially with my KO staying there and both his morley revenge guys making it...

The second half saw me nearly losing the ball due to bad rolls and his sidestepping catcher and +ST guardian... Only when Nuffle seemed hell bent on ruining my plans did he intervene and gave Neo some skulls. This allowed my bull to break out. Due to the ice Neo's humans never fully recovered.

Tense match and very happy with myself for pulling off a draw against a coach like that!

Thanks Neophyte... good luck with the team and apologies if I was slow.”
