To prevent this you want to keep them as safe as possible and only take risks with them if the pay off is worth it. You can be sure that if you do have Goblins on the pitch, the other team will do their best to target them. The trouble with Goblins though is that they are weak and low armoured so are rather fragile, Orc players are usually hard to remove from the pitch so fielding Goblins can lead to you being outnumbered which isn’t something an Orc team likes to be up against.

Goblins are also cheap which can free up more cash to buy other things when starting a team as well, though as Orc players aren’t exactly expensive and you don’t have to spend out money on getting nine Fan Factor any more, I can’t really see much need for this. This can either make the cage easier to move, or possibly use the Goblin as an outlet as a more traditional receiver. Their extra movement and ability to dodge through tacklezones can help with stretching the defence out. Goblins do provide more manoeuvrability around the pitch which is something Orc teams lack. There are some coaches who really shun the Orc way and decide to go all out with four Goblins, against most other rookie sides they can be really effective, though would hate to be facing a Dwarf team during a match. Usually skilled up for Throw Team Mate duty, or as an extra snack for the team’s Troll, or for drives when they need to score quickly and a passing play is likely to be needed. Of course no real Orc would want to be seen dead playing with Goblins on their side, though some coaches have strong enough will to keep their players in line and add one or two Goblin players to the side. Whilst not exactly fast, Goblins are fast compared to most players on an Orc side and with agility skills access they can be built to be an effective catcher for a passing game. The most obvious perhaps is that they allow the Orc team an easier one turn touchdown option in combination with a Troll and the Throw Team Mate ability. The fact that they offer these traits though opens up some extra options to the Orc team playbook.

None of these are traits you would usually associate with an Orc side.

To look at Goblins they appear somewhat out of place on an Orc team, they are low armoured, weak and get agility skills.
