teaboy279 1,038 Posted September 14, 2017 KENT KINGS Luke Bowen. 9/10 Done everything you can ask of a number 1, scored maximums for fun. Missed a month or so of the season and came back probably a few weeks early but you would not of known it. Luke Clifton. 7/10 The two nasty injuries continued one of the unluckiest returns to the sport possible. More frustrating was Luke looked far more confident and had more speed this season. Jack Thomas. 9/10 Jack has a big future in this sport, he rides beyond his years and is very rarely rattled, can ride the tight Line when required but is at home riding the dirt and pulling off big passes in the big races. Equally as polished off track well and is great with the kids, has time for everyone and is a genuine well manored young man. And for the second season running he has kinda been under the radar a bit. Ben Hopwood. 8/10 Ben has upped his game massively for 2017 and has been key to Kent success, and the lad has some balls because some of his swoops around the outside are against the airfence and the speed he can generate off of turn 4 at CP is quickest I ve seen. If I have one fault is he doesn't tend to look out for his team mate too much. But outscored his average from day one, and has been unlucky on a couple of occasions not to get rider of the night. Nathan Stoneman. 7/10 Nathan is one of those likable lads you want to do well. And he delivered a number of big performances, been a massive loss both on and off track. Nathan is another rider that if he can get a full season without injury will be riding at the top level very quickly. 100 percent trier and sometimes throws the odd point away trying too hard. Bradley Andrews. 8/10 Bradley started off the season, not being disrespectful but like he had hardly riden a bike at this level, but he knuckled down lost a serious amount of weight and he is a rider now that had out gate and match the pace of genuine Heat leaders. He does have a tendency to have a gentle slide off when looking behind mid corner, but I am sure he will iron that out no problem. Bradley scores have been decent but that does not tell the whole story, I don't think anyone has been unluckiest then Brad whether it be getting rough decisions, getting knocked off, or having races stopped when he has been ahead everything seems to go against him. If his season is indeed over then that is a massive blow to Kents title aspirations as he has been a key team member. Anders Rowe. 10/10 a 15 year old schoolboy who has beaten all sorts of high profile names. Don't wish to say too much about him as I don't think the lad needs unnecessary pressure of fan expectation yet. But appears to be a bit of a sponge, he listens to what advice he is given and is very keen to learn. Alex Sponer. 7/10 did a good job for the first month of the season, actually very unlucky to lose his team place. George Hunter. 10/10 In his relatively short time he has been the match winner on more then one occasion and has far outscored his average every meeting. Fast becoming one of the fans favorites, and you can tell he feels at home now. And another rider prepared to sling it in the dirt and ride around everyone. Dan Greenwood. 8/10 has come in and been solid without being spectacular. Starting to form a lethal partnership with Ben Hopwood providing kent with one of the strongest engine rooms in the league. Ben Morley. 10/10 hardly dropped a point in a high number of guest appearances for kent and further increased his lead as all time top scorer for kent. James Laker. 7/10 not really been given as many opportunities as he should have been, but been coming on leaps and bounds and will be one of the better 3 point riders next season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
