Guardians Lose (Under Own Coach)

Last night the Lothern Guardians were convincing defeated 2-1 by Drakeular's Legion. Enabling the Humans to take some well deserved revenge for their defeat by Guardians in the Championship rounds.

With their regular coach absent for such a long period, the High Elves initially seemed quite unsure themselves, or just plain resentful, and made a series of basic errors in the first half that handed the initiative and eventually the game to the Humans (all 3 re-rolls in the first half were used on failed 2+ rolls - and only once successfully).

The second half saw an improvement in form for the High Elves and their determined defence twice dispossessed the Legion of the ball - but they ultimately failed to stop the Humans scoring a second Touch Down and establishing an assailable 2-0 lead late in the second half. Some of the Guardians honor was salvaged with a TD of their own right on full time.

A full replay in available on Cabalvision!




Thanks to Gav for the game and good luck for the rest of the season.

And a big thanks to all the Coaches who stepped in play my team while I was away - and who also clearly did a better job than I did last night!  A combination of work and unexpected family disasters necessitated my absence for such a long period. Everyone's patience is much appreciated.
