Australian Swc Team For Rd 1 Named

[Guest CR500 Dude]

Australia named their line-up for the Speedway Wold Cup Rd1 meeting with Sweden, Poland & Germany to be held at the Eskilstuna track in Sweden on August 2.

Jason Crump, Leigh Adams and Ryan Sullivan, Steve Johnston, Davey Watt. well done Dave on your selection

[AndyM 1]

Predictable!

Well,should see them safely in third place

[Rob B 1,256]

Definatly agree with Davey Watt but not Steve Johnston, he is riding poor.

[Cornishman 18]

who in his place though?

 

 

 

 

very predictable line up, but the right one, unlike team GB's

I would have put adam shields in instead of steve johnston. Nothing against johno but he is not doing well at the moment. The future does not look good for aussie speedway.

All countries would be welcomed to see where the future is coming from

Travis McGowan will be a mainstay in the Aussie team in 5-6 years time, not sure about Watson though.

I hope you're right, would love to see him do just that, will always have a soft spot for him, Lynn being his first ever british team

Why will Travis be a mainstay yet Wato won't? AFAIK, Travis is about 3 years younger and has not improved since his second season (actually 2000 was his best season over here!). I can't see him being a regular, mind you, I don't know who will be. Crump, Shields, Watt, Schlein, Bathelor, Trav may get a chance.

 

Personally, I think Trav should drop into the PL, I've always been a fan of his (remember feeling sorry for him in hsi first Sky meeting ) and he was brilliant at Newport on Sunday.

I guess you missed the Sky match on TV last night then SCB?

The Poles in 5 years time? Well, it could look like this:

 

J Kolodziej

M Rempala

K Kasprzak

R Miskowiak

P Hlib

 

And, you never know, at 39 TG might still be going strong (as might Leigh Adams for the Australians).

[KevH 257]

I think you can add Karol Zabik to that list Subedei.
