No. you are right much better to see old man Dryml do it. Why is he still getting team places? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, much rather watch British kids having a go than seeing an over-rated over paid foreigner doing the same. So far the draft riders i have watched have provided plenty of excitement - Newman, Morris , Kerr, Jacobs, Sarjeant have provided plenty of excitement to the top league in this Country.

Those lads you name are adding something but not sure what the others are adding really as they are pretty much just cannon fodder even in the reserves races. It would've been better that they were chasing the likes of Auty, ,Birks & Roynon & that both reserves had to have their 4 rides per meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree that it should be PL standard for the EL and NL for the PL. As far as the NL standard lads, they really are only meant to be beating each other and have seen a couple of battles with them. But yea id have preferred a 4 point draft for the likes of Birks and Auty and 3 for those like Morris and Newman. Think that would have been much stronger and fairer. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
