Panthers99 433 Posted January 11, 2020 If it is Holder, I think Ipswich gave a great team, but there are riders there who you need to up there averages who have always had that tag as potential to up it by a point etc. Can Klindt up his average? King? Heeps? Ayres? Holder? Can see Nico and Allen upping.. Entertaining side anyway which is name of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted January 11, 2020 So of the 6 we have revealed ... Allen 5.56 (6.27) King 6.66 (7.38) Heeps 6.30 (7.26) Klindt 7.43 (8.04) Covatti 5.27 (6.09) Ayres 3.36 (4.04) Total 34.58 (39.08) The figures in brackets inc BPs so it's quite possible that the riders can up their aves.... if they do to the averages inc BPs then the team will be up at the top end of the league by Play offs.

I'm quite willing to accept that. This forum is full some really, really strange human beings. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevin bass 246 Posted January 12, 2020 If it is a certain Mr Holder then i wonder how he'll handle Foxhall if it's grippy, also Klindt on that matter, we all know the rest of the team don't mind it grippy and can ride the deep stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevin bass 246 Posted January 12, 2020 Yeah so make it slick with a blue groove for Holder if it is him n Klindt and then watch the rest of um struggle for grip, makes loads of sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He made a few mistakes elsewhere as well especially his own team who were firm favourites to make the play offs and didn’t. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevin bass 246 Posted January 15, 2020 Very quiet, was expecting some news haps seeing as the Australian championship was over and done with, unless it ain't gonna be Holder after all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevin bass 246 Posted January 15, 2020 I saw Klindt at Foxhall 2 or 3 times last season and he definitely performed better when it was on t slick side, but then again it don't matter if it's slick or heavy if he's got his gating gloves on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
