Accusations of hooliganism have been flying since Acid and sukroD
of the kroD order were assaulted by men in pink bunny suits last week.
Suspicion around the incident, which caused the last-minute substitution
ofthe kroD members for new players due to the injuries caused, has fallen
heavily upon both Watership Down and the Voracious Rabbits. Both teams are
entered into Pool H along with kroD, and both teams are composed of, well,
bunnies.
"This is an outrage!", stated Fiver of Watership down, at a press
conference at the team's training grounds by the old farmer's fields near
the gorse bushes. "Watership Down is an order committed to the virtues of
sportsmanship and fair play. We would never ambush members of a rival
order, and if we did, we'd use something better than slide rules!"
"kroD are a worthy order, and we consider them comrades." added
Bigwig."Besides which, our accusers miss the point. Acid and sukroD were
attacked by men in pink bunny suits. We are bunnies. No suits required.
You'll notice also that none of us are pink."
When asked for further comment, team captain Buckthorn, whose
grasp of human language is minimal, uttered only "Silflay hraka!" and
brandished a dwarven signal grenade, after which reporters hastily left
the scene.
The Voracious Rabbits have not been approached for comment
because, frankly, everyone's too scared of them.
