Welcome again Bloodbowl fans and here we have the last divisional match before the teams go on to play cross divisional games. The Oblivion are on a pretty good streak winning their first game and pulling off a great draw against the Heartbreakers who really should have outclassed them.
Tonights game is against the All Sparkz. This Skaven team are a shadow of their former selves after getting demolished last season by the Atrocity Exhibition which saw their Star Gutter Runner, Arcani All Spark himself, killed and then raised from the dead to swell the ranks of the Exhibition.
The weather is rather nice this time of year in Naggarond and the Oblivion have the edge in fans that have turned up for the match.. All Sparkz win the toss and Oblivion are called to kick.
The teams are set up and the Oblivion kick. The Skaven manage to get an extra Re-Roll through coaching and the game is on. The All Sparkz charge upfield dodging around the Oblivion line, their Gutter Runners getting set up in the back field. The Oblivon change their positioning and a Dark Elf Lineman crunches a poor Journeyman drafted onto the Rats team and gets a CAS.
The All Sparkz respond and manage to KO an Oblivion Lineman and their Rat Ogre tries to Blitz but just stands roaring madly.
The Dark Elves manage to Blitz the All Sparkz ball carrier but the sneaky Rat manages to dodge away. The Skaven now gain momentum, piling into the Dark Elves and moving around the pitch with speed and ease. A Gutter Runner sprint s into the endzone and the All Sparkz Thrower tries a long pass....its no good! the pass sails over the waiting Gutter Runner and off the pitch. The fans enthusiastically chuck it back and it lands near an Oblivion Blitzer who smacks a near by Rat, collects the ball, hands off to another Blitzer and he's away down the pitch. The Rat Ogre in a mad frenzy blitzes a Dark Elf Lineman and causes a CAS.
The Oblivion now in control of the ball keep moving towards the endzone and KO a few Rats, the Rag Ogre again Blitzes and again causes another CAS on an Oblivion Lineman. The Oblivion respond by fouling the Rat Ogre after finally getting in down but no injury caused and the dirty Dark Elf is Sent Off!.
With so many Rats KO'd though it is easy for the Oblivion Blitzer to dance into the endzone and score TOUCHDOWN!!! 1-0
Half time and the Dark Elves have managed to turn over the Skaven thanks to a very poor pass which should have seen the All Sparkz go ahead.
The teams set up for the second half and the All Sparkz kick and the Oblivion are shocked to see the Skaven bearing down on them for a Blitz. The All Sparkz quick blitz though achieves nothing and the Oblivion collect the ball and start their drive.
As the Oblivion charge ahead a poor Skaven lineman is CAS'd SI by a Dark Elf Blitzer, in return the All Sparkz manage to get a hit on the ball carrier but fail to collect the ball which ends up free on the pitch.
The Oblivion collect the ball again and make their plays but are shocked to see the Rat Ogre CAS'ing another Dark Elf lineman. The Oblivion are losing players but fortunately nothing too serious. The remaining Dark Elves steel themselves and pile in hard and manage to KO the Rat Ogre. Not many players left on the field now from both teams, its carnage out there.
The games drawing to a close but the Oblivion take the initiative and manage to score again right at the death. TOUCHDOWN!!! 2-0 the Karond Kar Oblivion win and thats 2 wins and 1 draw, and we should see some exciting games as the team now goes into the cross divisional matches.
Good Night sports fans!
