Skidder1 7,633 Posted June 19, 2018 So the line-ups are: Rebels: Doyle; Wilson-Dean; Vissing; Lawson; Holder; Allen; Covatti. Pirates: Brady; Linus; Richie; r/r for Nicolai; Josh; Mateusz; Kacper (NB I've used christian names for Poole as far easier and quicker to spell)!! Still think this could be a tight one 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 19, 2018 Coming up for this tomorrow evening. Weather seems set to be dry so good news. Somersets changes are interesting. Wright at the Oak Tree was a good scorer so will be missed. Vissing is decent but it will be his first meeting. At the other end Covatti no doubts strengthens Somerset at reserve. What they lose in the 1-5 they make up in the reserve berth. Does it make Somerset weaker? Possibly tomorrow but not by much. If we turn up in a determined mood I think we will come away with a point, which would be a good improvement on our first visit. It would be disappointing to go home empty handed.

Cliffeboy 577 Posted June 19, 2018 All regular Rebs need to be on it tomorrow, Covatti should be ok at 6, Lawson needs to improve or we could get stung in the engine room. Provided we start ok ( no 1-5 ‘s in heat 1 please) I think we will take the three points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poole's to lose with Somerset's rather odd team changes and the Pirates being able to use R/R for Klindt with the two Poles at reserve.

I think a point is well within Poole's reach in this one. The Pirates could come away with a narrow win imho. Either way, I hope there's some good racing and a decent crowd.

Ghosty 500 Posted June 20, 2018 ALWAYS good racing @ the Oak Tree, I would expect the score to be 50ish to 40ish in Somersets favour with Jason Doyle putting on a Stirling performance in front of Mark Webber! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mattfordfan 286 Posted June 20, 2018 Expecting 4 league points tonight. Brady, Josh & Richie know how to ride the oak tree. Expecting double figures from Brady and Josh. Linus is now in form. Kacper can take 7 rides at reserve. If we don't win tonight then we might as well not bother with the rest of the season. Somerset are now weakened by the double team change and we are strengthened by having R/R in operation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
