Orkland Raidurz vs Gryphon Bloodsox

The League season began with an early kick off between the Raidurz and the Bloodsox. The Raidurz were looking to avenge their pre-season defeat. They got off to a very quick start. After they received the ball from the kick off, they got the ball into the hands of their Goblin. He was then quickly thrown over the line of scrimmage on the 2nd turn.

Shocked by this the Bloodsox, tried manfully to kickstart their game. It was not to be. Despite getting a hold of the ball, slowly maneuvering the Raidurz line to create a gap, disaster was to strike. An attempt at a quick pass to one of their blitzers was spilled by the thrower, scattering across the line of scrimmage into the hands of a grateful Raidurz blitzer. This was to become a recurring theme for the Bloodsox thrower for the rest of the game. The Orcs quickly formed up a cage and trundled their way to the Bloodsox line and the inevitable score.







Twice more, the Bloodsox failed to complete a pass, ceding possession to the Raidurz. The second half didn't get much better, starting a man down, the Raidurz began to pummel the Bloodsox line, sending 2 more players to the injury box. The Bloodsox gamely hung on in the game only to once more be undone by  a fumbled pass. The Raidurz quickly seized possession before pushing on for their 3rd score. 




So the Raidurz got off to a comfortable start, but back to the drawing board for the Bloodsox, they need a game plan to deal with a big guy with the Raidurz Troll causing havoc.

Hopefully another couple of league games next week.
