Well, if you're a Lord of the Rings fan, anyways...

"The rule says you can't launch in an upward direction, which means if you leave your feet, you have to hit the guy below the waist."
Maybe if you're a hobbit that's true.

That Frodo always gave 110%.

Nah, Frodo was more of a show-pony, give me a team of Gamgees.

Frodo was obviously a choker anyways, since Gullum destroyed the ring in the end.
I'd take the big play potential of Merry. When you need a Nazgul captain slain, he's your man.

He needed a better line. I mean stabbed by ring wraiths, barrow wights, stung by spiders. Sure some of it's his fault, but his supporting cast does have to shoulder some of the blame.

Hey, he still got his team all the way to Mordor. If he gets a little fumble luck at the end, so what? Every team has some good fortune.
More credit needs to go to Coach Gandalf though. The wizardry of his defensive schemes were just enough for his ragtag defense to slow down the opposition and allow his team to have a chance. After years of never living up to his potential Aragorn finally had his breakout season, and veteran Elrond decided to stay around for one last season, when he could so easily have retired to the West. Legolas was a valuable contributor though he still needs to learn how to take a hit – I've never seen a player so eager to get out of bounds. Kind of a pretty boy.
The league is changing, though. I don't think elves and dwarves will ever be as big of a factor in the game. That's been a long time coming – it ain't the Second Age anymore.

And oliphaunts have gone the way of fullbacks.

Actually, it was the play-fake to Aragorn that won it.
