Well if she loses she can't be thrown because she would be stronger(you can't hurl an enemy with a higher strength) and also even rending she still gets the bonuses of 6+ save and no running away due to bestial fury

Back in LoME it was an illegal alliance, but now anything goes its brutal really
failing that
lets not forget shelob could hurl the balrog(maximum of 7") provided your willing to gamble on that(the loss of so many attacks seems wasteful), and with the balrogs base size he can take out a whole warband when hurled.
Hideous amounts of carnage (especially off a cliff)

4 morodor trolls with axes an hammers would work pretty nicely, could try piercing strike to get potentially S10 with the troll and then rend or hurl him

Good point. I guess that I shouldn't have written anything after only 4 hours of sleep the night before lol.

I should take azog, 5 fell wargs (to suround the balrog)
3 ringwraiths+1might.
stay out of charch range with azog and each turn try to compel him within charch range. or transfix.
than charch and suround the balrog and kill him with azog.
when you didn't manage to transfix the balrog then use heroic strike with azog. 2 times winning a combat and he's dead.

well the goblin king would work well there too and he's incredibly hard to kill.
in fact:
goblin king
12 goblins
Gollum
goblin shaman
12 goblin prowlers with 2h axe
groblog

the reasoning here would be
gollum wears the ring charges the balrog, halves his fight value, then goblin king charges in after the shaman has cast fury and the prowlers are there to trap the beast and axe it down
or you could have:
Burdur
shade
12 spectres

burdur make piercing strikes(just look at that sword)
shade is -1 to balrog winning combat thus no more i got a 6 i win
spectres high courage, will charge, and hit him on his courage value
