“Faced with a highly effective attrition game brought by the Deadites, the instant battle rodents enjoyed a terrific first half with the ball throwing a late blitz to go into the break 3 up.

With Squirrel and his saber joining the opposition, and some furry little bodies piling high, the second half looked like a scorefest for the Dead. But with the depleted fighting machine receiving, we stuttered on attack but Rabbit nearly hopped in for his 2nd career TD...only to be run down by the wolf pack in what must surely be every rabbit's nightmare (even if he's packing).

In the resulting scrap we somehow managed to stop Two Wongs from making the Deadites day out a little less wrong at least.

The battle did take its toll. R.I.V. Squirrel.

Incredibly, two fighting machine members seem to have emerged from this brutal scrap much improved specimens. Apparently the weight of the Assegai has boosted the strength of Agouti, its bearer. And wrestling with werewolves is just what Rabbit needed as he's certainly a stronger bunny for it.

Coach has thrown more strength onto the paddock, taping a claymore to a Capybara.

Go Fighting Machine !”
