Mainly because they snuck into the cage and blitzed the ball carrier with a rat ogre!!
I think that elf teams are hurt by using the cage. In my opinion, you want to spread out your opponent, giving you the opportunity to dodge, handoff, and pass your way into the endzone.
It didn't help that nuffle seemed to be in cahoots with the chaos gods for the match
I'm a Skaven team and on the weekend i used the cage against humans. It worked well but meant that it took five turns to score when i could've done it in three without the cage if need be. Think i'll go back to running in a pack.

You do realise that scoring in 5 turns instead of 3 is a good thing vs humans don't you?
Ideally you should score 2 or 3 turns before half time vs bashy teams (if the score would pull you level, if it puts you ahead stall till the last turn). It still gives them some hope at scoring but they'll need to take risks to pull it off which makes it easier for you to turn them over and score on their drive which will usuallly mean game won for you.
