Facebook Poole vido revel if not blocked a new 007

Anders wasn't so great after groin injury, and Cook got better after Belle View commitments ended. Yes seems that bit has to have worked out well for Poole. Yes the reserves have bags of potential but at this moment aren't the best in the league, look to Redcar's Ace Pijper and Jodi Scott for that. Kerr will of course need to sort his mechanicals. Gilkes has sound potential, Bowes not so sure but should at least hold his own. Lawson well just have to hope he can maintain his high level, because Poole replied heavily upon him last year. But all in all Pirates should be right up there, but all the clean sweep talk I'm not so sure.

chill out will ya

I think we need to forget all this nonsense about extra teams because it ain't going to happen. Unfortunately the Premiership is like the cockroach that has been stood on but is desperately scuttling around the floor looking for survival. Logical thinking required here, why would any right minded businessman or persons invest in a dying sport? It ain't happening so people need to deal with it. One league is the only way forward and I believe eventually it will be forced upon the powers that be.

😂 The joys of this forum on a mobile - double posts! Edited to say nothing, but at least not a double post!

Dag Lovaas? Has he not retired yet? Bound to be a 9 average

No need to mention heeps he's well passed it

🥱 Are Workington and Scunthorpe trying to out do each other as to who can be last to name their team?!

Don't ever suggest Heeps again.

He's got potential, riding for a Wednesday track at Oxford didn't work. Don't know if Saturday's would be any better. Not a great many options on that average (if they don't go the Cook route) Cameron Heeps? Declan Kennedy? Or Kennedy instead of Bowtell?

Fair play to the Ford's they have done it again they have got two of the best UK prospects on false averages, one of the best riders in the league in Lawson, Cook should crack on further and is destined for bigger things, Gilks if he stays injury free should improve. I've never really rated Kerr although he is brave as they come but he's one of these riders who can score 3 -13 on any given night, Bowes I don't know much about but if anyone can get improvement out of him its the Fords. I know they are marmite but they run a tight ship at a profit most years but where they are masters is getting riders in on false averages. It was pretty obvious last year whoever got Cairns in so long as the other six weren't dog awful should win the league. Although I would have loved to have seen him the other teams must be heaving a sigh of relief Bailey isn't riding over here as in my opinion that lad is the best aussie prospect since Darcy Ward I reckon if he came in on four he would have ended up on six or seven at seasons end.

Knudsen is another who doesn't turn up all the time

How about a strength in depth team? Jonas Jeppersen - 8.20 Troy Batchelor - 7.10 Tate Zischke - 5.76 Francis Gusts - 5.49 Jonas Knudsen - 5.05 Alfie Bowtell - 4.65 Vinnie Foord - 3.69 Total - 39.94

Would be a good signing imo. Didn't like Oxford, but better elsewhere.

What about Gusts big track should suit him, if he can be strong armed to turn up most of the time.

I think Max Perry is a fair bit better than Sam McGurk was. Actually averaged better away from home, so if he finds a track he prefers to Glasgow, could progress even more? Looking at his Northside scores, he's had 2 good matches at development level, but not rode at Champ level yet, surprisingly.

Well I assume she'd be on a 3.00 ave now the rules have changed?

And spelling ?

They did try

Let’s just hope the Poole track doesn’t ruin Cooper … best young rider I’ve seen for a long time but isn’t a renowned gater and I can easily see his away average being higher than his home one

Cook or Kemp? What a choice! Looks like people have finally got wise to Kemp.

All riders need to gate at some point, you cant always come from the back even at a big track like Glasgow.

Bring back celina

Just a bit of scrappy maths We will use your listed riders and assume 4x 8 pointers drop and you find 20 new foreigners and avoid having to use new 2 pointers So in your absolute perfect scenario it would enable an increase in team limit from my estimate if 30 to somewhere in the region of 33.5 If you make all the new foreigners 5 instead of 4 you can pretend it's 35

Cooper is a different proposition.
