Fiji Falcons Fleece Nodding Nottingham Nifflers
Vanua Levu has reason to celebrate today as their Falcons take the snitch and the win from Nottingham’s Nifflers. It was another short match, with both seekers in top form after their off-season rest-up. Also in top form was Eka Pranata Chandra, the star Chaser for the Falcons, with 9 of the Falcons’ 11 goals. Abel Blakely also put forth a valiant effort for the Nifflers, but was hampered by Elias Gabb, one of the two Beaters for the Nifflers, who, on a tragic backswing, accidentally knocked the Quaffle through his own hoop, scoring an extra goal for the Falcons. The crowds in Fiji went wild, and Gabb never recovered his composure. However, Kyle Bitterwood gave Nottingham some hope as he eyeballed the snitch after 35 minutes, and the chase began. Kyle seemed to have control of the situation, continually blocking out Dwi Hartanto, and not allowing her to use her better speed to full advantage. However, Purnama Muljana and Josias Tindo Zian, the Falcons’ very skilled Beaters put up a Hornfell Defence and knocked Bitterwood out of the chase for just long enough for Hartanto to finally catch the snitch at just 1 hour and 12 minutes.
