Tenderloin, a relative of Landlady reached legend status.
I'm still pondering which skill to take. He is only BC when it's needed, else he is bashing away. I also will get another or more ghoul to handle the ball. So, sure hands isn't an option. In my blog (lost to bad votes) i've already received good input, suggestions were guard and frenzy. I don't want to stick him to opponents unless needed, so basically guard is out, too. Piling On, not him. Pro sounds very reasonable, and as he plays in blackbox, fend seems an option, too. What about a thick skull? Could be a cool choice, but as of yet rarely needed.
I'm interested in the rationale behind your suggestion.
Thanks in advance, and cu in the box!

If he's always hitting, then either upping his survivability, his damage, his maneuverability, or his knockdown seems best. You don't want PO (sensible), so his damage isn't going up. For survivability, I would take Fend over Thick Skull. For knockdown, I'd take Frenzy over Pro, although Wrestle is an option. I like Frenzy better, though. I can't think of anything to help his maneuverability, except maybe break tackle, which I wouldn't bother with in this situation. I'd probably go with Frenzy.

Guard no contest. Undead don't have an abundance of STR access players to take it on, and need every guard they can get, imo.

Guard - no doubt

Wights are for hitting, leave the wossy s/hands to the girlie Ghouls Razz

I have a guy like that in league. Cant wait for him to get sure Hands. With that skill he will singelhanded win you games against nasty AG Strip ballers. Very useful. I wouldnt take guard since he is too valuable to just put him on the line.

Take guard, even though you dont intend to put him on the line he will find himself in a brawl everynow and then anyway, thats just how bloodbowl is. Itl keep your other players up, which in turn keeps him up.

Im completely puzzled why tackle isnt even an option. But as nobody has mentioned it yet, im probably wrong.

Guard if not tackle. Reasons given in the blog.

Edit: Oh well, brilliant. Strike again and good morning.
I'll still leave this as it is for the laughs.

Well, if I was playing against you I would prefer him to have just about any skill other than Guard. Guard is a great skill and you really want both your wights to have it.

I would consider juggernaut. Smash wrestlers, follow up fenders, and knock back stand firmers. Great for those situations where you need a push to score too.

I took it on Aztec and never regretted it: https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=9057666
