question about nobbla blackwart

nobbla has frenzy, does that mean he can attack with his chainsaw, pushback and attack again?

No !
Frenzy can only be used for a Block.
I guess this point is stated in the Frenzy description...

yeah, i guess i should have read the rules for frenzy 1st. that's weird, what's the point of giving nobla frenzy then? i mean, who would actually throw a block with a ST2, frenzy gobbo?

Could be very usefull against Ballcarriers near the crowd

but with a ST2? unless i had a crowd of assists i would never try it...but that's just me.

When you play versus other stunties.
Or versus ST1 players... or a player turned into a frog by a wizard !

IMO, it's just a question of fluff. Nobbla is totally crazy (enough to carry a chainsaw on a BB pitch

, so has the Frenzy skill.
It's the same for Lord Borak. Ok, he has Dirty Player, but who use this skill with him ? (Get the Ref apart).

Well in an Orc team its not hard to give him 2 assists - so you'll get a 2nd block and potentially push someone off the pitch.

it has it's place i spose. still a risky proposition to try it with a player carrying a chainsaw though. lol

Another question to nobla or any other chainsaw player. When I'm not starting the chainsaw, not even try to, do I have to make a penalty roll?

yep, anytime a secret weapon enters the pitch, whether you use it or not, you must roll.

Even when it's not running it's still hard to get it past the ref unnoticed...

which can be really amusing when you spend an entire drive failing to start the chainsaw only to have your player ejected...trust me i know. happened in a tourney. lol
