Summers pretty average around Shielfield, occasionally hits a 12, most of the time 6 or7 points, do you want an 8 pointer who may drop to a 7.5 ish. With the other 5 probably nailed on, can fit in a 9 pointer and an 8.5 rider, assuming the starting points are 42.5.

Too many that won't improve in that line up for me.

Who`s been listening to the latest set of rumours, presumably if the club go in this direction, and if the team average stays the same the club will spend the points remaining on a rider who will come into the side as the No1 rider.

Personally don't see Summers as a number 1 for us. His performances aren't consistent enough in my personal opinion to be in that position. He is a good rider in fairness but we need a solid number 1 from the start of the season. The difference consistency brings at number 1 was well demonstrated by Nick this season.

So if the rumours are to be believed Berwick will have at least 4 of the team from this season just gone back next year. Quite baffling as to why to be honest when they finished rock bottom of the league. Doolan has been on the decline for the last 3 or 4 seasons but obviously a good bloke and up for a laugh in the bar so he's a shoe in. Howe scored ok but in a rubbish team so was he just the second best of a bad bunch behind Morris? Etheridge had a good year but will he really improve on his average if he's in the main body of the team. What can you say about Gappmaier, fancies it when he gates from reserve (at home) and then horrific away. Morris replaced with Summers? Like swapping Aguero for Kenny Miller. Still, as long as they have a good fence and a laugh and a joke who really cares about being competitive eh :)

Spot on with that assessment Rose tinted glasses for season 1 watch the knives come out if we fail to perform in season 2. Need the big hitter and a solid tail.

Damn, here was me hoping we could tempt you back next year. Oh well, here's to 2019 maybe?

Etheridge will do a good job whether in the Team or at Reserve.IMO.

Agree with your main message...

 

Not sure who else would be in the reckoning for the number one slot. Nicholls, kennett?

 

Long way to travel and sadly not early 20s with much to prove

Good luck Liam Carr, retiring from the sport.

Another Brit gone.

Such a shame, the boy has talent, but unfortunatley when clubs mess you about things aren't going to work out.

Nice lad, was on our table at the Robins Dinner Dance recently, valuable number 7 in the title winning play-off team.

Telling us about riding with Bridger for his local side.
