Good day.
Skill Up Question Time!

So Ranked is a strange place. Despite many (unfair) losses my Goblin team keeps growing TV wise.

I (with Nuffle's support) developed two very nice weapon specialists already (a Grab+2 MV Fanatic and a blodging Chainsaw) and games are always fun thanks to them.
I know that Goblin coaches would recommend not to bloat TV too much, and that undeveloped Goblins are probably more competitive anyway.
Despite that some of my normal Gobs keep developing and surviving and I will not fire them. Nature and POWs will do that.

Probably my best player is now WhyDidCoachBuyBomb?
https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=10856764
He is nearly as fast as a Gutterrunner but not that ugly, has Block and Sidestep and now rolled another double (3+3).

And I am a bit overwhelmed what to take next.

I thought about Strip Ball, but I guess that would have been better in combination with Wrestle. Because I don't want this guy standing inside an opponent's cage.
Throwing unskilled Goblins onto the cage feels safer.
Maybe Tackle for those nasty elves sprinting deep into my half as I use him often as a safety on defence he became my ball carrier in offence (or Diving Tackle?). Sometimes he starts in the offence LOS for a reliable block (again Tackle? Mighty Blow? Piling On? Very Happy) and other Goblins try to pick up the ball and bring it forward to him (Catch?).
I just don't see which skills would really benefit him, everything seems very situational. Maybe some other coaches have better imagination than me and can suggest something.

Also tomorrow a friend of mine has birthday and I will bake her a cake. Not sure which one yet.

I've had success with sure hands (albeit on ag4) and tackle on block goblins. I'd probably go sure hands on this guys, although your +ag goblin is certainly a promising candidate for ball carrier in the future.

the question is if Who Blocks This Is Stupid will survive long enough to experience that future. i can only protect that many players on the pitch. but i mean who wants to be stupid.
