Made this team a LONG time ago. Is it worth keeping, or should I retire it. Clearly I made a few poor decisions on skills.

Thoughts?

It's still a serviceable team, apart from having tackle rather than block on the troll.

I don't see that you need to retire it. Maybe save up and be ready to replace the troll if you don't get block by about its third skill.

Agreed. Need tp eventually replace the -AV BoB as well.
To get more even matches in the meantime I'd drop a reroll and the assistant coaches.

I've seen all Lineman teams before but don't think I've seen any non-Lineman ones. Are Orcs and Humans the only ones where that's possible? I can think of a couple that could field 11 with 2 Lineman only, and Darkies with just 1... Heck, you can get up to 15 players before needing one with Orcs if you count the Gabbos as positionals.

On topic: I believe the team is still viable... like above I'd drop a RR or 2 depending on playstyle and the assistant coaches.

Very little wrong here, and I have the prescription ready for you now.

Now: Drop 3 coaches and a reroll.

Next: replace -av BOB with new BOB

Then: replace thrower with lineorc

Finally: Add 12th man, lineorc.

Consdider: Withdrawing apoth rights from Troll and change after everything else if no second double for block.

Consider: Dropping other thrower if a Blitzer gets +ag.

Consider: Dropping another reroll if a thrower takes Leader, or if your playstyle can bear it.

What they said.

But. 3 or 4 RR? That is a matter of what you feel comfortable with. I prefer 3 RR, so my advice would be to keep 4 RR 1 game or 2, and see if you use that last RR or not.

Orcs are generally fine with 3 rrs, either 2 team rrs + leader rr or 3 team rrs.

It seems like a decent team really. Dropping a reroll and a couple of coaches makes sense as the team is otherwise quite low tv.

Well, with very little experience playing Orcs when I started the team, there could have been too many mistakes to recover from.

That's why I asked.

Thank you, I will take your advice, along with the others that mirror it.

I need to get a game in first, as I can't make changes until I'm in between games mode.

Thanks all!
