FG skill up and facing Khemri

So in winning my league semi-final, I got a skill up (6+4) on my +ST, Block, Guard FG and am pondering what to take.

My team:

FG: Block, Guard
FG: Block, Guard, +ST, (6+4)
Wight: +AG, +AG, Guard, Dodge, MB
Wight: +AG, MB, Guard, Tackle, SF
WW: Block, Dodge, MB, PO, SS
WW: Block, Dodge, MB, Dauntless, Tackle
GH: Block, Dodge, SH, SS, Fend
GH: Wrestle, +AG
Zx2: Wrestle
Z: DP
Zx3: Rookie
4 RR

TV 2280

I'll be facing a Khemri team that has been on a heck of a hot streak

TG: Block, MB, Guard
TG: Block, MB, Guard
TG: MB, Grab, Multiblock
TG: MB, BT, Guard
BZ: Tackle, MB, Guard
BZ: Tackle, MB
TH: Block, Kick, Dodge, KOR
TH: Block, Tackle, Fend
SK: DP, Sneaky
SK: Wrestle, Dauntless, NI
SK: Rookiex5
3 RR

TV 1960

I've never actually played against Khemri with this team so if anyone has any suggestions I'd be open to them. I presume I'll want to spread the field and avoid the TGs as much as possible, though the SP, Sneaky skelly is a concern too...

I'd take MB. No single skill screams out as being really useful for the next match and MB on Flesh golems is a very good choice as they get to block a lot.

I went +1AV, keeps him on the pitch longer

What do you think the Khemri team would fear most? That's the pick I'd make.

Break Tackle: mobile unmovable Guard is great.
But if you feel you don't need it, M-Blow: bring some more pain to the pitch.

Another vote for Break Tackle.

What's the FG's job on your team? I assume it's to muck up the scrum and limit the other team's movement options. The chance to reposition the FG with a 2+ dodge is really nice.

I almost picked Grab and would give it strong consideration.

I'd go MB all the way, it will help him reach his next skill and those Skeleteon are all just av7, the moer MB the better.

MB. His job is to block and kill mens.

Late to the party, but FG's job is to TIE UP people, not necessarily hurt them (that is the Wights or Wolves' job). Break Tackle helps him get to where his brand of Stand Firm would be the most annoying, so BT is a good option (not that MB is ever bad), and +AV is always the worst possible pick.
