Walt's Warriors defeat the Keen Knives

Coach Twickster has come a long way in a short time, this season being entrusted to coach those fairy tale dwarves by Walt himself. His opposition in the first round, a seasoned veteran Kundy Kid, taking the pride of the High Elf league, the Keen Knives onto the field.

As soon as Snow Tacklebeard, and White Murphey lead their team onto the pitch, Prince charming went off the reservation, madly pushing the first High elf he could see in a frenzy, but tripping over himself in the process. This was followed by Snows failure to pick up the ball.

The keen knives, were in fact quiet keen to take the advantage, and went for the ball, a few rounds of tussle found the Elves in possession, but not for long. Remembering that they were creatures of legend, or at least children stories, the Dwarves surrounded the elves and began to pummel them to the ground, putting 4 of them out of commission and coming out with the ball in the hands of Snow Tacklebeard, who took the rest of the half to run the length of the field surrounded by 4 of those famous 7, while the other 3 continue to beat upon the elves.

With only 7 players going into the second half, the Keen Knives had a tough battle ahead of them, there team re-rolls gone after the first pass, and half a pitch to cover to the touch down line. Alas their luck had truly run out, if it had ever been there in the first place, as several blocks against the dwarves resulted in elfs hitting the ground instead. Another outmatched tussle, and the ball became once again the property of Snow Tacklebeard, who gathered his honor guard around him, while the elves struggled to respond, but were not agile enough to get past the stumpy legs of the dwarf blockers. When the elves began to refuse to stand up, one of the dwarfs, most likely grumpy decided a few well placed kicks would get them to stand, although the result was quiet the opposite.

A second touchdown by Snow, and what was left of the elves formed up for a final play with no chance of reaching the end zone in time. All that was left was to make a play with the ball, and see if they could win back some of there pride. But Gris (Grumpy) McGraw would not let sleeping elves fly, and snatched the ball mid-flight in the elves last play of the night.


A truly one sided match, with lady luck siding with the little guys, not even using a single team re-roll in the second half. While by comparison the Keen Knives failed almost half their dodges, and a quarter of their blocks resulted in turnovers.
