RCBBL Season 3 week 1

 

Here we go!! Season 3, new teams, old teams, new players and old players! The ogres are staying, the Dark Elves are staying but now we have Elven Union, a human team, a lizard team and a wood elf team! We welcome a couple of new players also! Here we go for week 1

Osiris Scales (Lizard) vs Eaglettes (Elven Union)  

2 of the new teams faced off against each other. The Eaglettes rookie coach lines up against last year's championship winning coach though minus his rats this year. The game ended 4 - 0 to the Eaglettes! The elves put on a display of speed and dodging. 

Gnoblar Gobblers (Ogre) vs Fury Cutters (Human) 

Another rookie coach (proud parent moment my 8 year old has joined the league) faces a veteran coach. In a thrilling game where my sons distinct lack of regard for any kind of looking at the odds and deciding on a sensible course of action ment crazy actions were attempted. The Fury Cutters took the win 4-2!

Death Spectres (Dark Elf) vs Glade runners (Wood Elf)

2 veteran RCBBL coaches face each other one with the highest TV team of the league. The other a brand new team who play a totally different style than the coach is used to (yeah that's me). A hard fought tactical match happened where my brain still hurts from working out tackle zones. The rookie woodies took the veteran Dark elves to 2-2 despite losing their thrower and 2 other players early on (one lineman dead already) but the Dark Elves scored on the last turn to take the win 3-2.

A good week but I'm still not sold on wood elves
