New era Panthers 2,055 Posted July 4, 2016 Well a result that's no major surprise especially after losing Simon. Somerset are a brilliant side, and always have a strong reserve. We need to keep our fingers crossed Simon is back sooner rather than later as RR will destroy our season as would mean Perry and our reserves. If Simon is going to be out for a month or so would it be possible to bring in a temp replacement say for 28 days rather than having to use r/r . I'm not a great fan of r/r at the best of times and it would not be anything like useful with Tom Perry and the 2 reserves covering . Maybe bringing in someone like Adam Ellis as a temp wouldn't be a bad shout. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New era Panthers 2,055 Posted July 4, 2016 Thought Perry, Grondal and Holub were the bees' knees? They are but unfortunately at the moment they don't seem to have much sting , Perry looks a shadow of the rider he was before his injury and as for Grondal and Holub you just don't know what to expect as there so inconsistent but will give them the benefit of the doubt on improving . Just came out of a very tough meeting with the almost certain premier league champions and there confidence needs building back up and the best way is not to put extra pressure on them covering r/r. I understand Simon is going to be out for up to 8 weeks which would give him a come back date in September , so Panthers maybe looking for more than just a temp cover Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,050 Posted July 4, 2016 Not good news screm.. http://www.peterboroughpanthers.co/news.php?extend.2856.2 Not so good, though there was talk of a leg injury so maybe we can be thankful it wasn't worse, hopefully he will get back very soon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
