8th Match : Grog-Swillers Bear The Heat At Dead-Beat Stadium Written by Armando Blackquill Avast mateys! It's time for another match report, as after a relatively successful couple of matches, managing their first win followed by a draw, the Grog-Swillers now face the mighty Scrummy Mummies, a Tomb Kings team hailing from the hot and dusty region of Khemri. The ironically named Dead-Beat Stadium is to host the bout, and it's clear that with at least a little bit of momentum on their side, the Grog-Swillers will give their all in an attempt to win the match. It is clear, however, that a draw in this situation will not be enough, as the end of the season is approaching fast and if the Grog-Swillers don't manage to win the game, their hopes for the playoffs are going to be dashed.  In order to achieve this goal, the Grog-Swillers have been going on a training regiment, with several of the Ogres learning how to use their brute strength to swipe aside anyone marking them. Also, ...

7th Match : S'Elf Flagellation Face The Meat-Grinder at Landlubbers Stadium Written by Armando Blackquill Avast mateys! Things are looking up for the Grog-Swillers as they finally manage to get their first win against in the DBL, and although a lot of that win was due to Karla Von Kill, it's still clear that getting into the second half of the league with at least one win under their belt will do wonders for the morale of the Grog-Swillers. Hopefully this can be turned into a winning streak and even potentially give the Grog-Swillers a chance to make the playoffs (although, to be honest, this seems like a remote possibility). The Grog-Swillers had had some training in the coming weeks, with Grindem learning how to brawl properly in the line of scrimmage, while Coach Coachem has been firiing some of the more useless Gnoblars and replacing them with fresh ones. A couple of them learnt some good defensive maneuvers, but it's unclear if this is going to help in the upcoming gam...

6th Match : Grog-Swillers Become Confused against the Upside Down Shadows at Preece Pack Dungeon Stadium Written by Armando Blackquill Avast mateys! We are now in the second half of the conference for our boys in Teal and I have to say that their performance on the pitch has been less than stellar. Management at Landlubbers Stadium have already made motions against Coach Coachem, telling him that if he doesn't at least get one win during the season, there will be repercussions once the League ends, to which our ex-Captain had only this as a reply: "But me boys crunch lots!". We can see that his heart is in the right place, but that still doesn't excuse the poor performance of the Grog-Swillers. Still, it is clear that at least some of the training is paying off. Chugem, taking on from the late Smashem Bones (may he rest in peace), has learnt how to use his brute strength to break tackles, which should allow him to break open from markers much more reliably. As well as...

   5th Match : Gnaw-wich Skitty skitter about against the Grog-Swillers at Landlubbers Stadium Written by Armando Blackquill Avast mateys! We are in the middle of the conference stage and it seems that Coach Coachem still hasn't really managed to whip the boys into shape. Although their previous game against Rock the CAS-Box had been a close-fought one, it was clear that the loss of Smashem had affected the team badly, and what could have potentially been a close win turned into a defeat. Still, there are glimmers of hope and with the first half of the conference done, many fans are confident that the Grog-Swillers will turn it around and have a winning season in the back half! This week the Grog-Swillers will be facing Gnaw-wich Skitty, a team of dastardly Skaven: rat-men are known as some of the fastest teams in the league and it's going to be difficult for our lads to slow them down at the start, but hopefully as the game goes on, the pure brutality of the Ogres will take i...

  4th Match : Grog-Swillers fight Rock the CAS-Box at the Casualty Box Written by Armando Blackquill Avast mateys! Welcome to another episode in the saga of our suffering boys in teal. With the drubbing that they suffered against the Lil Creepers, it was clear that our plucky Ogres really need to step up and actually win some games, especially considering that we are getting to the middle of the conference stage of the league. Unfortunately, the next fixture would make them confront the Orcs of Rock the CAS-Box, and having faced Orcs before, this was always going to be a tough match for the Grog-Swillers. Fortunately, Coach Coachem had some plans in this regard. Smashem had received a bit of extra training, and with the firm instruction of "You just move away from bad guys", hopefully he would be able to get in better positions and break some tackles thanks to just his immense strength. As well as that, the gnoblar that the Ogres had been using for target practice, one known ...
