Legend skill for super hobgoblin

Sheeva became only the 8th ever Hobgoblin legend on FUMBBL today and rolled normals for her last skill.
Previous rolls were +ST, Sure Hands, Dodge, +MA, Block.
Obviously on offense she is the ballcarrier, and on defense she usually hangs back in a sweeper role.
Any advices?

I voted Fend for all-around utility and survival odds.

For those voting tackle - on a chaos dwarf team?

I didn't but can see it. All the rest of the tackle is mv4. This one is mv7. The piece is a sweeper on defence so l am the lone voice calling for strip ball.

Jimmy - nice player.

As usual the answer is "it depends".

If the defensive sweeper role is important, then Tackle.

If, on the other hand, you plan for this team to play for a long time, and survival is important, then Fend.

Hope that helps.

Went fend. If fummbl then I am assuming lots of pomb players. If you are playing lots of elves then strip ball or tackle, but somehow I doubt it.

I went for Kick in the end to benefit the team as a whole.
He rarely gets hit and when he does it's mostly a -2db.

I think I would have gone Frenzy, love it on a BC for those unexpected T8 plays near the goal-line, especially with ST4 and Dodge. Also serves the role of Tackle sweeper with the 2 shots.
