ReadingRacer2017 159 Posted June 15, 2018 Bring in Starke & Shanes and all of a sudden the team looks more balanced. 1. Nick Morris 8.51 2. Paul Starke 5.08 3. Tobiasz Musielak 7.42 4. Adam Ellis 6.42 5. Troy Batchelor 8.04 6. Zach Wajtknecht 3.73 7. James Shanes 3.31 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayleigh 362 Posted June 15, 2018 Got to say whilst anyone would have liked 3 points last night would I have taken a point before the meeting? YES Seems both teams could make a case for a better result but there still seems to be life in this team as I did not expect to trouble 40 points before the meeting.

dump that clutch 630 Posted June 15, 2018 well, after going behind the way we did, to drag that result back to a win with a 14 point swing, got to be happy with that. sure, DB is struggling at the moment, but pretty sure he's going nowhere... (much to the disgust of RR) the track wasn't as quick as it has been for the last few meetings with a bigger bias on gates 1 & 3... Rye House must be gutted to not convert that start they had, 2 - 10 after 2 heats... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gresham78 215 Posted June 15, 2018 The Robins were off their game last night and it really looked likely at one stage that Rye were going to win it, however they turned it round in the end. If the team can be as below par as they were last night and still win I think it bodes well. In any team sport even the best teams have occasional lapses in form but the top teams can still win even when they're not at their best. I think there may have been a bit of complacency last night but judging by Rosco's demeanor at the post meeting press conference this will get addressed sooner rather than later. One final thought and that is about David Bellego. He seems to becoming the team's whipping boy for sub par performances. Some people seem to forget that David was a a key component in last season's success, a point raised by Rosco himself during the season review. Sure he's not riding as well as he did last year but I'm sure he can pull his form round. We don't want to become like the Pikey's on the south coast and start ditching riders as soon as their form dips. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't want to become like the Pikey's on the south coast and start ditching riders as soon as their form dips. Also worth noting with Bellego last night, the collision in the first staging of heat 3 bent his bike. He realised this after his 2nd ride of the night. Got pulled out of his 3rd one, then went out on an un-bent bike in heat 14 and won comfortably. There's a few inconsistencies in there, but generally I still like the feel of this team and think we'll be pushing for trophies at the end of the season. After last season, I think there are a section of our fans who think we should be winning every meeting, and should be scoring at least 55 at home each time. Entertainment wise, I prefer a meeting like last night to a drubbing. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One posts like a multi alias troll does and Crazy Robin panics if we only win by 10 at home so all in all people are behind Bellego. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
