They both rode well but I think it is a bit early to judge who will win overall but a good start from Fricke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouch 1,189 Posted January 3, 2019 Really looking forward to the battles between Lidsey, Holder and Kurtz around the NSS. I think these are the next wave of talented young Aussies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People are talking like he is a risk. On a 4 point average. At reserve. He will be the signing of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually thought when he come over here, he would do the Championship first.But he has progressed so well and the top league is so watered down now if if I predicted Jaimon will average 5.50 plus. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think he had a tough season throughout Europe last season so he can only be better this season. Starting off lower down the order should see him improve by half a point at least I reckon. Wolves have had a fair few testimonials over the last 10 years and I agree loyalty is a rare breed these days. I like the look of this team. Robins are real dark horses to me too. 22 hours ago, geoff58 said: think fricke just prooved who is top dog by winning first round tonight and it won't be his last win neither also 10 pts for lidsey this guy is a steal on 4pt average !! In fairness the Oz championships prove nothing as Tungate has been champion. Lidsey will be great to watch next year I reckon, 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ONTWOMINUTES 105 Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) Nice to see max fricke actually smiling for once, considering how fortunate he is ( self earned plus sponsorship of course ) with his life style , living in andorra etc etc and always riding for top teams even when he's not really deserved to on performance - he always seems miserable and moaning about things . I've always found him very ungrateful and with the attitude of the world owes him - just realise you get paid for doing something you want to - nobody is forcing you to ride . Just my opinion.
