We should run R/R ORLOV to big a meeting to take risk's.

See how he goes tonight, if he does not score a lot he may well decide his injury is still an issue and that he needs more time off.  He lives south of Swindon so he could go and see the doctor Poole riders use.

If he has any sort of twinge he can pull out surely?  how many riders have comeback from injury to early.??

Sounds like you think you are better with r/r and you may have a point but if Ellis is fit to ride for Birmingham he should ride for Swindon, if he isn't fit he shouldn't ride tonight. Birmingham fans must be really impressed he's only riding for them to test his injury for Swindon.

I see your point and odviously Adam want's to earn money if he comes out of tonight A1 it should be ok,but coming back from a collarbone injury to early is risky.

Well if he wants to ride and earn money he will say its fine, collar bones usually mend fairly quickly. If Rosco thinks it's too risky he will tell Adam he aggravated it riding for Birmingham.

Spot on the last sentence could well be right.

Adam's r/r scored 5+2 last time so he should have bettered that. Robins have great home form, cup and league, won every match apart from 2 45-45 draws with the Poirates. But with more away matches left really need to start picking up points on the road. Kings Lynn and Wolves improving. Only Swin and Lynn unbeaten at home, only Robins that have lost every away match, all 6.3 big away matches coming up for the Robins.

Hopefully decent weather and good size crowd on Thursday.

He could have a reaction to racing tonight so it’s possible he isn’t quite fit enough.

However it would look really dodgy if he rides tonight and does ok and then pulls out tomorrow. I’m guessing as long as there are no complications tonight he will be fine Thursday.

To be honest though Doris ,  Adam will do well to get 5+2 against this Wolves side after a layoff.Thorssell/ Morris/ Howarth should all be more competetive than there last visit and if Wolves did get in the four they would have momentum there 1-7 does look good.

Surely any rider coming back from an injury will test it out in their first meeting back.

Even if Adam top scores for Birmingham and goes to sleep happy - it wouldn't be unheard of for him or any rider to wake up in pain and not feel ok to ride again that evening.

Jeez they are human not robots.

Will go 50-40. The Wolves are improving but rarely do well at Blunsdon.

And that in a nutshell, is it.
