eric i 617 Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) Scunny will be good at home but are going to struggle away. It's going to be an entertaining team but it looks a very injury prone team again. Edited November 20, 2018 by eric i 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebaron 434 Posted November 20, 2018 1 hour ago, the outsider said: "God knows" ? I can't think of anyone ? Does Wilko qualify for a reduction ? I've found one ! Alfie Bowtell probably the pick of the 2pt plus riders. 2.38 with Lakeside last season and actually had a 9.24 NL average with Isle of Wight which matched wonder kid Drew Kemp at Mildenhall. Would back him at Reserve as one that might step up in a "watered down" 2019 Championship. We would have two of the best 2018 NL scorers in Bowtell/Bailey (sounds like a Cop TV Series that ?) and plausibly one or both vying for a top 5 place while Jedd List finds his feet ?

Tosh1218 592 Posted November 20, 2018 When people are saying bottom 4 in some comments ,it's a tough season and when all teams are setting up to 38 pts team average when if you take heat 15 results off you need 42 pts to achieve a draw then all teams will be weakened . How teams decide to go will be interesting next year but to retain 4 out of 5 of our top scorers from this season will help ,as I see improvement from Jake and Stefan next season .Hope Gino and Stevie get set up elsewhere for next year . In my eyes your team can have what ever averages for next season they want ,it will be teams with fewest injuries over the season that will be battling it out for the honours .Because this season we were ravaged by injuries all season 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phillwhitewasmad 1,487 Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) With the last rider to announced I’m quite optimistic that we are for another entertaining season. Top bottom or middle as long as we get value for money on the track it don’t really matter if we win or loose.

89buttons 751 Posted November 21, 2018 Good looking team within a tighter points limit imo, Stefan will easily add points to his average picking off weaker reserves and second strings, Josh Bailey is a more accomplished rider than his last stint in the championship and he’ll likely be racing mostly NL opponents at reserve that he knows he can beat already. With 3 good heat leaders, If Jedd List turns out to the the real deal could be the team to beat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I think when you look at the riders that provided the bulk of the entertainment last year... Auty.. Allen and Garrity.. Then they are all there Also Important to put riders in who genuinely want to ride for the club.. Not club hoping mercenaries chasing dollar 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
