Crocodiles - Saints 25.05.2019

Crocodiles puolusti voiton Saintsista

Seinäjoki Crocodiles voitti kotiavauksessaan Tampere Saintsin 20-7 (7-7). Märissä olosuhteissa pelatussa ottelussa nähtiin paljon liukastumisia ja kaatumisia. Saintsin hyökkäys eteni ottelussa kaksi kertaa Crocodilesia enemmän, mutta ei onnistunut tekemään yhtä maalia enempää. Ottelun ratkaisuksi muodostuikin Saintsin viisi pallon menetystä, kaksi rähmäystä ja kolme syötönkatkoa.

Crocodilesin pelinrakentaja Jonathan Baker heitti ottelussa vain kymmenen kertaa. Crocodilesin ainoa heittomaali lähtikin keskushyökkääjä Christian Powellin kädestä juoksuhämäyksen jälkeen. Powell myös kantoi palloa 18 kertaa ja yhden maalin. Puolustuksessa Dejvion Steward katkaisi Saintsheiton kahteen kertaan palauttaen toisen näistä läpi kentän maaliin. Crocodilespuolustuksen ahkerin taklaaja oli tukimies Jaska Värinen.

Saints pelinrakentaja Tuskani Figaro keräsi 263 heittojaardia ja heitti yhden maalin, mutta kolme syötönkatkoa oli liikaa. Kiinniottajista Tyler Broad keräsi neljä kiinniottoa ja maalin. Saintsin juoksupeli ei auennut koko päivänä ja tulokseksi 28 kannolla jäi 52 jaardia. Puolustuksessa Janne Kreus keräsi viisi taklausta ja onnistui säkittämään Bakerin kertaalleen.

Ensi viikonloppuna Saints on väliviikolla, mutta Crocodiles matkustaa perjantaina Helsinkiin Wolverinesin vieraaksi. Muissa otteluissa torstaina Porvoo Butchers isännöi Kuopio Steelersiä ja lakkiaispäivän johdosta poikkeuksellisesti sunnuntaina pelattavassa ottelussa kohtaavat Helsinki Roosters ja Vaasa Royals.

Viikon 1 ennakko: Historiallinen kausi käynnistyy viime vuoden finalistien kohtaamisella

Vaahteraliigan runkosarja käynnistyy tulevana torstaina hallitsevan Suomen mestarin isännöidessä viime vuoden hopeamitalisti Kuopio Steelersiä. Roosters on aloittanut kauden kukistamalla kotonaan Ruotsin mestari Tukholma Mean Machinen ja vieraissa Tanskan mestarin Kööpenhamina Towersin, kun taas Steelers kävi vierailemassa Islannissa kukistaen paikallisen Einherjarin selvänumeroisesti. Steelers jatkaa viime vuotiseen malliin pelinrakentaja Seth Petersin johdolla vauhdikasta hyökkäystä, kun taas Roosters lähtee kauteen sarjan ainoan aloittavan suomalaispelinrakentaja Miro Kadmiryn johdolla.

Kierroksen toisessa ottelussa perjantaina Vaasassa Royals saa vastaansa Porvoo Butchersin. Joukkueet sijoittuivat viime vuonna sijoilla 3. ja 4., joten tämäkin ottelu antaa hyvää kuvaa miten voimasuhteet tänä vuonna asettuvat. Vaasa päätyi vaihtamaan pelinrakentajaa vielä viikkoa ennen kautta, mutta uuden pelinrakentajan odotetaan saapuvan ajoissa otteluun. Mikään turha mies ei olekaan kyseessä, sillä Diondre Borel oli Utah Staten pelinrakentajana ennen kuin siirtyi laitahyökkääjäksi ja oli NFL:ssä Green Bay Packersissä ja Tennesee Titansissa. Porvoolla oli omat haasteensa ja joukkueen keskushyökkääjäksi vaihtui muutama viikko sitten Tanskassa pelannut Dayton Winn. Winn oli Steelers pelinrakentaja Petersin joukkuetoveri Hendrix Collegessa ennen kuin tuli Eurooppaan ja Tanskaan pelaamaan.

Lauantaina Tampere Saints matkaa Seinäjoelle Crocodilesin vieraaksi. Joukkueet tarjoilivat viime kauden lopussa tiukan jatkoajalle venyneen ottelun, jossa Crocodiles oli lopulta pisteen parempi. Crocodiles on rakentanut viime vuoden päälle tuoden takaisin pelinrakentaja Jonathan Bakerin ja keskushyökkääjä Chris Powellin. Tampere taas esittelee ottelussa uuden pelinrakentajan Suomen kentille, kun Tuskani Figaro johtaa joukkueen hyökkäystä. Molemmat joukkueet jäivät viime vuonna pudotuspelien ulkopuolelle, joten nälkää on talviharjoittelussa riittänyt molemmissa joukkueissa. Lauantai näyttää kumpi ottaa kauden avausvoittonsa.

Viime vuonna 1-divisioonan voittanut Helsinki Wolverines avaa kautensa vasta ensi viikolla.
