For two away meetings running the tracks have been described as either tricky or grippy. Have teams been trying to psych us out. If so its not worked. Looking forward to Ashfield tomorrow and a fast fair track. We always try prepare a grippy track so there goes that theory. anyway the meeting, expected result, hope everyone who fell is okay. Felt Sarjeants move was a bit too firm imo. Good to see Ricky back in the points. Sedgmen attempt at trying to pass coles was embarrassing looks scared anytime someone comes near him. Lawson also shouldn’t be getting beat by either reserves at home. couple of changes needed imo before the season is finished before it’s even started.

Sarj is a bit of a liability though and refs are onto him big time. Mind you elastic sales are up wheres Jan Andersen in here? Strangely quiet Always does. Nothing flash,loud or brash. Just gets on with it. One of the reasons I like him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good to see Ricky looking bit more like his old self The Sedgman gamble doesn’t look like paying off and it is Avery short season waiting for riders to come good nowadays Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When he was a junior he was terribly flash turning up like he was a GP Star. Not sure if that was him or his dad. But nowadays he is doing the talking on the track. I think a hard year at Worky has grounded him. i don’t expect him to be a top level star but he is solid and is taking some scalps in this division at a tender age. Great to see! Cant wait for tonight - taking the grandkids as it’s Saturday night and they are super excited to meet Roary!!! Mon the stripes!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,757 Posted May 25, 2019 (edited) Depends what you mean by ‘terribly flash’ but I don’t see much wrong with having a professional image and looking as good as you can when on duty. Years ago at school my PE teacher used to say ‘look smart, play smart’ when we represented the school at football, cricket or whatever and I think that’s true. He didn’t do as well as I thought last season but seems to be fulfilling his potential this year and it’s great to see.

Mr Blobby 2,645 Posted May 25, 2019 What’s the rule regarding going on the centre green this year? As Jensen rode down it after making a practice start in his first ride. Talking of his first ride Mr McGregor missing the most blatant tape touch I’ve ever seen from Jensen and not excluding but instead giving him a warning after the race was laughable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You get beat last night then. Would this have been an issue if you had won, somehow i doubt it. Edited May 25, 2019 by Gazc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wouldn’t of effected the result, we’re pants just wondering what the ruling was about it and complaining about what was an awful piece of refereeing. A Glasgow win was never in doubt we didn’t look like getting a heat advantage all night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you can get a half decent replacement for Sedgmen and get Pickering back you will be half decent, replacing Sedgmen is a must as you can't carry him any longer , Lawson as well expected more from him.

I agree the side was built on Sedgmen riding to his 14/15 season form of averaging around 7 instead he’s averaging around 4. Lawson in at reserve should hitting around the 5 point mark instead is averaging around 2.5/3. Side was built on a bit of a gamble and it’s not paid off.
