woodenspoon 157 Posted December 10, 2018 If Kenneth can repeat his form of 2017, he had a home average of 10.17, & an away average of 8.00, we will have a very strong top two. I would like to see us get Jack Holder as he has potential to improve his average, and was exciting to watch at the NSS last year. Just think what a treat we have when Cookie and Rohan return for the opposition at the NSS, both busting a gut to prove the management wrong. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A solid top 2, as good as anything in the league imo. Then good 2nd strings of which any will step up on a given night and become a 3rd heat leader. Oh and strong reserves. Will be a play off team I have no doubt about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bradford Ace 183 Posted December 10, 2018 Wouldn’t go for Berge personally although Lemon seems to like him. Flattered to deceive for us at end of season and wasn’t much better than what we let go. just looked at his Championship average as well and didn’t realize it was just 5.03??? Persoanlly I would rather go with one of the 2 young Aussie lads, Pickering or Campton alongside Lidsey. All Aussie boys together so should get on well and maybe have a bit of friendly rivalry as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aces51 2,778 Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) If that is the team I can understand that some will see a few question marks, has Worrall recovered mentally and physically to be back to his form at the beginning of 2018, will Dan be fully recovered and quickly get back to his pre injury form and will Lidsey settle in to the the British tracks and do a good job at reserve? I'm confident that we have a good top 2, that Dan will carry on where he left off, Lidsey will show what an outstanding prospect he is, that we have two solid second strings who will also produce some match winning performances and that Berge will do well at the NSS and some of the away tracks. It's difficult without knowing all of the other line ups but I think we can get into the play offs. If things go wrong we can play the game and make changes mid season.

KIRKYLANE 537 Posted December 10, 2018 Well pleased with the signing of Fricke and Bjerre, As long as we sign racers rather than riders, that will do me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How do you feel about the rumoured 1-7? 1. Max Fricke 2. Ricky Wells 3. Dan Bewley 4. Steve Worrall 5. Kenneth Bjerre 6. Jaimon Lidsey 7. Dimitri Berge If that is the rumoured team, it is relying heavily on Lidsey being assessed at 4.00. The other question I would have is that if this is plan "a" team, do we have a backup plan if for example that Dan Bewley is not fit at the start of the season. We do not want a repeat of the Steve Worrall situation of last season, where we had constant guests & R/R. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

U make it sound like it's 7 of them. And Wright is somewhere else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil The Ace 2,860 Posted December 11, 2018 Bjerre had a 10+ point home average in 2017 and 8 away from home. If he can get near that then he will be a great signing. It's a like for like signing for me signing bjerre for cook. Lidsey is a great talent but will need time to settle in. Worrall should be fine. Got all winter to get even fitter. His leg will be even stronger than before the break now. Bewley is the big risk but hopefully kildermand will be in for the first no1 th or 2 as a temp replacement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
