Can only see a 60+ home win unless the weather saves Newcastle.

2 points short

You were saying

Would've been spot on if Lawson done what he normally does.

Anyway it proves how crap your club is when you're on here trying to be smart about your team only losing by 26 points this week.

Can't blame Newcastle for making the rules. Am sure Poole have utilized the rules in the past, and will do in the future.

Maybe Lawson still suffering from his knee injury so didn't push things when behind as the win wasn't in doubt ?

Result as expected. Track very good but riders not wanting to go out wide when it looked ok to. Eventually they did and found it was good to blast around. Smooth, plenty of dirt and no dust at all. 

Lawson off colour. Not wanting to do anything in one heat and sat at the back. Not like him at all.  Worrall superb. King good. Ben Cook good, Zac less so tonight. Kemp hit and cold. So hesitant in one heat, then blast around the opposition in his next. A confidence issue? Ablitt battled. 

For Newcastle Howarth was good value but Starke was woeful all night. Think he might have blown his best engine. Rest were hot and cold but Wright did ok. Complin battled all night and had the race of the night with Zac Cook.

The meeting lacked tension due to the result never being in doubt. Tougher tests ahead. 

Lawson is carrying a damaged and swollen right knee which is why he is a bit under par. I think Starke will do better when he gets paid!!!!!!!

Worrall rated the track as 'the best its been' and a pleasure to race!!

Definitely seen him passing riders this season. Adam Ellis vs Brum comes to mind.

Oh dear, that's not good. If Newcastle last the season they'll have done well.
