I wasn't insinuating that we're far stronger than Somerset? I am suggesting that our starting 7 is far stronger than our 2019 starting 7 As for Ellis over Harris ? may be....but I'd rather have Harris over Schlein/Barker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Najjer 2,855 Posted December 2, 2019 14 hours ago, allthegearbutnaeidea said: A duff signing??? Would like to see suggestions for a rider on his average that’s better? Admittedly only over 4 meetings but he didn't even manage to average 6.00 during that time for Berwick. He's signed on nearly a 7 point average. No value in that for me as his best days are way behind him. I would be amazed if he finishes the season with Birmingham. He will either get injured or just stop fancying it.

I don't think he has had the backing off track that many others enjoy but things look more promising for 2020. Any new backing would I'm sure be most appreciated. Nathan will need a N.L. team place so he gets plenty of rides to develop & keep sharpe. With a smaller N.L. in 2020 there will be more riders than team places.

Dandelion 775 Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) Charles Wright 9.35 Anders Rowe 4.27 Rory Schlein 8.69 Josh Bates 6.19 Ben Barker 7.05 Alfie Bowtell/Tom Perry 3.02/3.38 Nathan Stoneman 2.00 Total: 40.57/40.93 Personally would prefer to see Tom, as I kinda wanna see Alfie back at Newcastle... But Alfie is the better, younger choice... However a little bit more experience with Nathan at reserve that you'd get with Tom might be beneficial for Somerset too... Hmmm, would love to see Charles back at Somerset just so he's not with the smoggies anymore Edited December 2, 2019 by Dandelion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Palm-Toft and Connor Mountain would fit but I think Anders Rowe has already said he’ll be riding at number 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
