“The Craghammers continued their terrible march, bringing their run of games without a win to 7. They outblocked their opponents Stirland 66-39 in this one, securing casualties of 3/1/1, but the Necro regen rolls were on fire. Replacement runner Halsteinn Leiksigur was obliterated later in the game after scoring a td to ensure Nordland's financial (as well as moral) bankruptcy. The apo tried to bring him back to life with glorious fire; it didn't work. Hopefully he'll fare better as a Reaper. The game finished 2-1.

Rowdy fans tore onto the pitch in the opening moments of the game to demonstrate to the Crags that they could probably do a better job of blocking than these EEL "professionals". They were probably right.

Hired Eel Wizard (working for Stirland on this occasion) again flubbed his lightning bolt. Eel Commissioner Bob Tanker will have to look into how much money these magi are getting paid.

Lineman Olafur á þrumu bagged guard and each of the ulfys decided to roll 10s (one double, one single). It's unclear yet whether the Cryptic Humour staff are going to push either of them into taking anything other than block.

Coach Stonefist was unavailable for comment but sources close to the harried undead Dwarf suggest that the team is dangerously close to being disbanded. Only 5,000 fans turned up to watch the Craghammers play yesterday evening for an overall attendance of 13,000.

A troubled Nordlander fan said: 'Look, this outfit aren't winning when they get the dice, so they're not going to win when they don't. It only costs me two coppers to come to the Slippery Eel Stadium Complex, but I reckon even that's too much at the moment.'”
