Very hard to answer. What team? What skills does he have already? What is your use for him?

I would probably give mine Stand Firm but he plays on a dwarf squad and already has Block. Hell Frenzy is always fun!

Probably Frenzy, though Leader is a good choice if you're a conservative coach.

It is not the best, but I think diving tackle could be funny. I recently took it on a Black Orc, and it is pretty nifty if you play a reckless coach

It's exactely what I tried on one of my Black Orc too :o
And it works quite well.
Considering the fact that players usually prefer dodging than blocking strong players (strange idea, isn't it ? :wink: ), it's really a good choice, and on an Ogre, I think it will be even more useful.

It is great. Especially if there are two gutterrunners on the line in the widezone in a last desperate attempt to score and you roll perfect defence. :lol:

I would take stand firm. So if someone want to block your ogre to break you line they would have to get him down. Besides if you want to blitz a player with the ball and someone is allready in your tacklezone and you fail, it wouldn't matter to much.

Frenzy for a bashing Ogre, Stand Firm for a road block.

Pro is better on an ogre than leader.

Leader requires doubles - and is the "safety first" choice.

Pro doesn't and is the 2nd or 3rd skill I'd take anyway (after Block and Piling On).

odd option but my fav would be dodge, so if he has block would combo to become a total pain to take down. Most ogres as front line winners but cant do much else due to Bone head. To dodge out is irrevant because is ST is enough to fight anything, but he becomes the best player in defense as i cant imagine many St5 with tackle to take him down.

I good point- and I believe Dodge works with Break Tackle, so could be the set up for a good combo (after block)
