So this player is showing potential but truth to tell it's the first time I can remember a Fling rolling two doubles....

So What do I give him?

Random though: strip ball. -2d block is 4/9 to get the ball out of non-surehanding opponent, with rr this comes to more than 2/3. Stunty ftw?

Pro - to reroll your half of your failed landings
Guard - why not?
Fend - because it is annoying, esp. if someone tries to use the block against you to get away from your trees
...
otherwise I would take Sure Hands

gratz on the dbl dbl...not a fling coach...but i would think MB, PO, or dauntless will just get him killed faster. Of those choices I'd go sure hands for strip ball protection. I like the fend suggestion though for his survival...or guard...makes him go well with your other blodger for going after opposing ball carriers.

Strip ball certainly could have its uses for an extra threat. Probably wont help if their carrier is in a cage though.

Stunty means you ignore tackle zones so flings dont care about cages.

Definately Guard

Reason is that as you ignore TZs u can get into a cage to offer an assist and reduce oppo's TZs.
Your second blodge fling can then get in and hit the ball carrier with...shock horror 1d vs a st3 oppo....
and even better since your other blodger has +ag, you may even get hold of the ball

Which you won't be; just need to mark a cage corner.

Strip ball is great (though would be even better with wrestle). Sure hands is the other obvious choice.

Pile On, no contest, now that you cant foul with any reliability, it is best just to Blitz with this player and Pile On every turn.

I would take MB, Surehands not as useful on a Fling cos if a Stripballer is blitzing you he probably has 2 dice and Tackle.
