Hi Friday Night Fights Bloodbowl Fans!

You can call me "Secret Spy" but to be fair I'm really just a Couch Potato!


Week 3 - My Cheetos Review! (sorry its late but Cabal Vision blew a fuse and threw me behind!  Round 4 Results will be out shortly...)

This week I got my first fan mail and I thought Id share with you all the great feedback

Feedback 1: Hi Couch Potato, my name is Nancy Girlyblouse and Im a big fan of the Passing Fancy Team! I just wanted to say that all your stats can be read in different ways so don't mean a real lot when you look at it. 
Reply: Hi Nancy, thanks for reading my newsletter!  I appreciate your feedback and will ensure from now on my Blocking area will be a lot more descriptive to give you a real feel for how the Biff went in each game.  Oh, I also noticed that in Round 6 Passing Fancy are playing the Morrowdale Mountain Men and I hope the dwarves head butt all your prancy elves into a mushy paste...especially your pin up players!

Feedback 2: Hi Secret Spy my name is Cyril Prance-about and I've supported the mighty Spirit Dragon Sky Masters since their very first game.  I love your stats but was hoping you could put down the averages next to the stats in future?
Reply: Hi Cyril, its great to see another Elven fan following my Newsletter with such gusto!  I agree that it would make it a lot easier to understand the stats with the averages close by and from now on I will do it!  Its great ideas from my fans just like you that help to make this newsletter so successful!  This will no doubt help all the elven followers out there who are either blind or have the IQ of a Squig!  Oh and I saw your team are playing the Disease of Drakenmoor next week...I hope your favourite players have all their wobbly bits rot and fall off!

Please keep the great feedback coming in! 
Anyway, let's get down to the game results!

DISEASE OF DRAKENMOOR vs RUN DANGERMOUSE CLUB
 Blocking
Well the Run Dangermouse Club won the game 2-1 over the Disease of Drakenmoor by handing out a walloping! With 4 unanswered injuries to nil, plus 2 deaths the rats from run forgot the running game plan and opted to dish out a little rough justice.  Still with half the team dead or in the apothecaries room the team did well to keep the scoreline so close.
% of Successful Block Rolls
Drakenmoor    - 48%
Dangermouse - 59% (Bring it on bad boys!)
Skulls Average = 16.66%
Drakenmoor    - 12 (12.24%)    
Dangermouse - 13 (16.04%)
POW
Drakenmoor    - 19 (19.38%)
Dangermouse - 14 (17.28%)
Average armour roll Average = 7.00
Drakenmoor    - 6.75               
Dangermouse - 7.17 (this proved to be the big difference as the ratties ripped through armour like it was made of cheese)

HAR GANETH BLADES vs PASSING FANCY
 Blocking
This week Passing Fancy won convincingly 3-1 over the Har Ganeth Blades.  With only 1 injury and no deaths it was a pretty disappointing game. With 6 passes and almost 200 yards running you can get a picture of how the game was played...typical elf on elf action! The Fancy knocked the dark elves over 6 times and 3 of these were knockouts...so they know how to hit hard!  The Blades got one KO and one injury out of 11 knockdowns...wooses!
% of Successful Block Rolls
Har Ganeth     - 68% (how did they not win the biff count hands down?)
Passing Fancy- 46%
Skulls  Average = 16.66% 
Har Ganeth     - 13 (17.80%)     
Passing Fancy- 11 (14.86%)
POW
Har Ganeth     - 15 (20.54%)
Passing Fancy- 10 (13.51%)
Average armour roll Average = 7.00
Har Ganeth     - 6.46  (...oh that's how!  They couldn't work out how to get through the armour!)
Passing Fancy- 7.29               

URUKS HO vs ERENGRAD EASYBEATS
 Blocking
This week saw the Erengrad Easybeats for the first time and with a 3-1 win over the Orcs of Uruks Ho we liked what we saw!  The Orcs dished out the injuries 3-2 while they also out passed the humans.  This didn't stop some great play and tactics allowing the humans to take the green skins down convincingly despite Nuffle influencing the outcome to a large extent!
% of Successful Block Rolls
Uruks Ho         - 57%
Easybeats       - 79% (get a load of that % !!)
Skulls Average = 16.66%
Uruks Ho         - 18 (18%)      
Easybeats       - 7 (11.86%)
POW
Uruks Ho         - 13 (13%)
Easybeats       - 18 (30.50%)  (Almost 1/3 of all rolls were POW's - BRING IT ON !!)
Average armour roll  Average = 7.00
Uruks Ho         - 7.17              
Easybeats       - 6.71

MORGUE MACHINE vs MORROWDALE MOUNTAIN MEN
Blocking
Well the Undead of Morgue Machine did a number on the Morrowdale Mountain Men as they kept the stout ones scoreless winning 2-0. Even when the undead had the game sealed they stalled, fouled and may as well ate frog legs!  This however added to the game as the dwarves were ready to unleash some pain of their own...the undead just didn't give them a chance! (Nor Nuffle as we look at the stats for that matter...)
% of Successful Block Rolls
Morgue            - 62%
Mountainmen  - 46% (Pack of girlies!)
Skulls Average = 16.66%
Morgue            - 19 (16.66%)              
Mountainmen  - 21 (25.92%) (sheesh 1/4 of the block rolls were skulls)
POW
Morgue            - 23 (20.17%)
Mountainmen  - 11 (13.58%)
Average armour roll  Average = 7.00
Morgue            - 7.24                         
Mountainmen  - 6.94

TURNER CHAINSAW MASSACRE vs SPIRIT DRAGON SKY MASTERS
Blocking
Round 3 saw the Goblins of Turner Chainsaw Massacre draw 1-1 with the Pro Elf Spirit Dragon Sky Masters.  The Gobbo's dished out 4 injuries to 1 showing the rest of the league they might be small but their weapons are sharp!
% of Successful Block Rolls
Chainsaw        - 53%
Spirit Dragon   - 28% (Lowest this week...probably the lowest % ever recorded!)
Skulls  Average = 16.66%
Chainsaw        - 20 (22.47%)             
Spirit Dragon   - 11 (17.18%)
POW
Chainsaw        - 11 (12.35%)
Spirit Dragon   - 8 (12.50%)
Average armour roll   Average = 7.00
Chainsaw        - 7.36                         
Spirit Dragon   - 5.15  (What the??  Were the Elves wearing padded gloves? - Even Halflings hit harder than that!  What did the elves do to upset Nuffle?)

Until Next Week...
Secret Spy
