The Eisenport Pirates plays host to the Imperial Purples as they defended the Kings Kup.
The last time these two dwarf teams met was in the inaugeral Kings Kup and the pirates won but they got a severe beating in the process, the effects of which they were still suffering today, several players still sporting injuries from that game.
The Purples were favourites the Pirates suprised them as they were no push overs and the whole first half was taken up with a violent pitched battle all along the line of scrimage wit the Purples coming off the worse in the injuries stakes!
Coming out for the second half the Pirates come out looking pretty confident, perhaps too confident infact and following an intercepted throw by the Pirates the Purples made a break for it and Khama Zhan scored the only touch down of the match. The Pirates couldn't come back from that as the Purples put the pressure on.
The Imperial Purples deservedly take the Kings Kup home with them and the Pirates I think secretly considered themselves lucky to come off better than their last meeting and only ceeding one goal.The Purples were favourites the Pirates suprised them as they were no push overs and the whole first half was taken up with a violent pitched battle all along the line of scrimage wit the Purples coming off the worse in the injuries stakes!
