Horus, my main ballcarrier on the Traitors rolled a normal. I'm thinking Stand Firm to let him run the sidelines better or Tackle to help him break free and act as a sweeper. Which one is better? Am I missing a better option?

Standfirm is a pretty good shout on a ball carrier, if you find him making breaks often then worth taking. Also useful for covering sidelines on defence.

Tackle would also be helpful for getting rid of blodgestep/dt markers, although that isn't always the most common sight in the Box.

I don't think you can really go wrong picking either of them.

As an "outside" choice (mobile) Guard on your bulls would make the +ST (and eventually mass guard) on the blockers even more nasty, but I'm not sure I'd take it on the ballcarrier bull right now.

I like tackle on at least one of my bulls, because blockers are terrible safeties/sackers and hobbers don't hold up well enough to get 2+ skills to become a sacker.

I also like Stand Firm if you run out of normal skills to take.

I'd go Tackle on him first, and then at legend you can take stand firm or side step if a double.
