Call me wolfie 677 Posted May 21, 2018 Wolves operating r/r for Kyle Howarth who is away in a gp qualifier. Lions missing Hans Andersen and Danny King, and have Ricky Wells and Ritchie Worrall as guests Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShrewsburyWolf 22 Posted May 21, 2018 extra ride for Schlein (who switches to 5 with Masters in at 4) with Howarth missing and probably two for Morris so would expect them to match or get close to what Howarth would on current form. Gunna go for Wolves by 4, Hans missing I feel could be the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure Leicester reserves can be relied on to produce a double figure return between them, which usually ensures a win. So for me Newman and KP have to produce the engine room points if Lions are going to win this. And I think they'll have their work cut out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andersen is a massive loss for Leicester and could be the defining issue. Had both teams been at full strength , I would have fancied the Lions for a comfortable home win, but now it will be much closer than that . Will go for close match with Wolves taking home a point...

I would have thought it would have been better to have Worrall guesting for King & R/R for Andersen then Bjerre, Worrall, Pieszczek & Newman could have had an extra ride. Wells was pretty poor last time he guested. Wolves have the in-form reserve in Morris & should win by about 4-6 points. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless Newman & Pieszczek are on top form I feel we’re doomed, doomed I tell ye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's simple really, he isn't. Rolling averages ensured that won't be happening. Check out the official averages. His real 2018 average is massively different. http://www.speedwaygb.co/premiershipteamissues18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebrum 6,820 Posted May 21, 2018 Great away point for the Wolves. That's 3 away matches with a point gained at 2 of them. All ok so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfsbane 12,944 Posted May 22, 2018 When you have opportunities to take all the points, last night and at Rye, they need to be grabbed as a buffer to when something unlucky happens at home, Howarth injured v Poole last year. 2 points are ok, 6+ really should have been in the bag. Others won't make the same mistakes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
