hagonshocker 1,956 Posted May 31, 2016 60 plus to Poole eh? Yeah we will see one away win and the Pirates are all cock-a-hoop again shame there isnt a one fingered smiley on here 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) But surely if we get 60 with Ellis then we should get 70 with Stevie! Ellis got a paid max in the earlier fixture btw. That was at reserve. There is no way he would have got a max in the main body Has the track been sorted? If not this meeting could go either way as Poole struggled last week at home and Swindon have been okay away Edited May 31, 2016 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,028 Posted May 31, 2016 Well it is meant to be raining later so that will help! 60 plus to Poole eh? Yeah we will see one away win and the Pirates are all cock-a-hoop again shame there isnt a one fingered smiley on hereGavan started off the 60 score in and pretty sure he isn't a Poole fan! Lol. That was at reserve. There is no way he would have got a max in the main body Has the track been sorted? If not this meeting could go either way as Poole struggled last week at home and Swindon have been okay away But it would have included beating second strings.

Skidder1 7,636 Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) 60 plus to Poole eh? Yeah we will see one away win and the Pirates are all cock-a-hoop again shame there isnt a one fingered smiley on here My '60 point' comment was merely a tongue-in-cheek reply to Gavan's post. Not sure if Bjarne is riding tomorrow as Holsted have a planned fixture. If he's missing then that'll mean an extra r/r ride for Worrall, Brady and Kyle. Should still be a close meeting with a big half term crowd expected as its Poole's last meeting til 29th June!!!!!! That was at reserve. There is no way he would have got a max in the main body Has the track been sorted? If not this meeting could go either way as Poole struggled last week at home and Swindon have been okay away Adam's average has been gained at reserve, heat leader and 2nd string. Worrall's is purely from the reserve berth. There has been some work done on the track in the few days available since Belle Vue but whether it sorts all the issues we shall have to wait and see. Same for both teams though and Rosco knows much more about the WR track than most other tracks anywhere else!! Edited May 31, 2016 by Skidder1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dump that clutch 630 Posted May 31, 2016 I'll be happy if we reached 40 tomorrow. Not the happiest of hunting grounds for us over the years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same for both teams though and Rosco knows much more about the WR track than most other tracks anywhere else!! Steve Worrall has been in great form and showed last week how good he is on your track and was able to beat riders in the team e.g Holder, Ellis, Pedersen & Kurtz. It definitely doesn't weaken you. I think Poole would still get the win either way now Swindon are weaker at reserve again, however I don't think it will be by much, definitely wouldn't be as confident as Lisa is with her big predictions. If the tracks like last week then the Robins may surprise some. Edited May 31, 2016 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the tracks like last week then the Robins may surprise some. Not speaking for her but fairly confident Lisa was being ever so slightly tongue in cheek. If anyone is over confident on Poole's behalf it's their no 1 fan Gavan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted May 31, 2016 Gutted for Adam. The doc at the track didn't think it was broken and advised Ellis to pop in for an xray on his way home. Hate having guests and doubt Worral will repeat the previous week score. Hope he does though. 60 points is a nonsense. 53-39 would be a great win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted May 31, 2016 Yes the almost 2 point difference in their averages shows that Worrall is clearly the better rider so I look forward to the 60 points tomorrow!!!!!? Worrall is by far a better rider than Ellis, please dont say you disagree! But surely if we get 60 with Ellis then we should get 70 with Stevie! Ellis got a paid max in the earlier fixture btw. Ellis rode at reserve and put up a great performance last time. You cant say you would get more because now the rider swap is as a second string, a position that Worrall will outscore what Ellis would have done. In the last meeting against Swindon Ellis got 11+2 from reserve and Kurtz got 5 from number 2. So for Poole to get 70 you say that Kurtz will get 11+ 2 from reserve and Worrall will get 15 from number 2!!! Kurtz may not get 11+1 but Worrall will get more than 5 from the number 2 role. If Worrall only gets 5 thats more than Ellis would have done Gutted for Adam. The doc at the track didn't think it was broken and advised Ellis to pop in for an xray on his way home. Hate having guests and doubt Worral will repeat the previous week score. Hope he does though. 60 points is a nonsense. 53-39 would be a great win. no i agree guests are not good but you are stronger now for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BluTiger 21,693 Posted May 31, 2016 Pirates will win this with Worrall in, just as they would have done with young Adam. The 'discussion' on who's best is irrelevant imo.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 'discussion' on who's best is irrelevant imo..Yes I agree but Gavan likes putting our draft riders against other riders. Not speaking for her but fairly confident Lisa was being ever so slightly tongue in cheek. If anyone is over confident on Poole's behalf it's their no 1 fan GavanYes it was a bit tongue in cheek. Well Gavan was saying we would score 60 with Stevie Worrall. But we scored 61 with Adam last time. Gavan also says Worrall is better so surely we would be closer to 70?! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silver Cheetah Snr 113 Posted May 31, 2016 Can somebody explain to me how Poole are allowed to use Steve Worrall as a guest for Adam Ellis as Steve Worrall was a tier one rider and Adam Ellis a tier two rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
