Quick, quick...score, score!


What would Bloodbowl be without touchdowns eh? Well it would just be twenty-two eejits rolling around in mud trying to kill each other. Now, we all remember those days fondly but as it stands the bean counters in HQ insist on us keeping score so we can decide who’s ‘best’. As if any self-respecting fan cares anything beyond the number of bones broken and teeth lost.

That said there are fewer glorious sights than the ol’ skaven three-way resulting in an end-to-end touchdown. One of them being the final skaven falling over the invisible trip wire on their way to glory.

We digress! We now come to the award for the most Touchdowns scored by a team in the regular season - probably needs a snappier title if anyone wants to suggest one. In a relatively slow league, it should come as no surprise that the rats of Roland’s Runners cantered home to win the award with an impressive fourteen touchdowns. Congratulations to coach Andy for proving he can play dash as well as bash. The only potential challenge coming from the skinks of In The Gecko with ten.



Dirty Sheets Award

This award is the sober yin to raging yang of scoring. The noble art of suffering an ignominious score and lining up again for the inevitable Blitz. The Dirty Sheets award goes to the team that shipped the most Touchdowns and it appears that the Blood God doesn’t hold much truck with Defence with both Khorne teams leading with way. The Red D’Evils managed to pip their rivals KhorneHub to the award conceding thirteen touchdowns to ten.

Kudos should also go to In The Gecko for the meanest defence in the league – conceding just five times in seven games! Maybe we should have an award for this but we don’t. I suggest everyone gives coach Ste a patronising pat on the head next time you see him.
