So we’re looking at one returnee and six new riders. I know it’s a little different from previous years because of the new under 21 rule, but I can’t ever remember such a drastic change from one season to the next before from any club. We could be vulnerable at home for a while…

Can kiss goodbye to Cook, Harris and Rushen

You're really starting to upset me bro, (how do you politely say this)🤔 Stop it with these fackin' 💩 teams please 🤣👍🏻

He had an injured shoulder after crashing with Lindgren in Poland, which required rest and physio so he could make the final GP.

Yes please

Andy Graham was good at Monmore & Brandon. Which was useful for a Cradley rider. Handberg finished third when Havelock won the title at Wroclaw, it was very damp that day. That was a fluke!

Ben Cook is twice the rider that Lawson is…put both in the same Polish side then Ben Cook would destroy Lawson Having said that , over a full Championship season then Lawson would probably outscore Ben Cook as it’s almost a completely different sport and both riders seem to have completely different ambitions……..I don’t think there’s a remote chance of Ben Cook riding for anybody in the Championship though

Are they really sticking to the U24 in the 1-5 being Polish too?

Think Lawson,Lightcap,Rushen,McDiarmid,Harrison,can all add 0.50-1pt on,Cairns at number 5 I’d be happy if he managed to retain his average if he was there all season and Kennett I’d think a bit more maybe 2points.

Don't really get Lambert's issue, why would a Swedish team sign him anyway when he couldn't be bothered to turn up for the Vastervik playoff final meetings which cost them the title. I can't imagine that attitude will be appealing for any Swedish teams, his best bet for a second league to Poland in 2027 is Premiership.

Can't be bothered to read whole thread. My theory on Aces 2027 is... Kurtz Zishcke Blodorn Brennan Bewley Bailey Cairns

Apparently Zach Cook said at the end of season party, he's not back in 2027

Nope!!

Shows the flaw in the U21 rule. Joe T after a good season, having to start in the top 5, could mean not getting a team spot. I can see that happening a lot, some weaker U21s getting a chance too early, but stronger riders getting left on the scrapheap at 22!

Craig Cook going to Justin's testimonial in Aus,???

You're comparing someone who dabbles in recreational drugs with a violent criminal who robs vulnerable people at knifepoint? I'm not condoning or encouraging drug use at all btw particularly if it involves riding under the influence and endangering others however comparing Complin's offences with those of Garrity is wild.

Won't be 22 until Mid-April and the season normally starts just before then.

How are Workingtons team plans going, will you be having the leftovers 🤔

I think either of these teams would be very strong. Even without knowing other teams, I'd have them as favourites based on the amount of improvement I could see riders getting on their averages.

Or have a no1 who is prepared to be captain. If he loves at Poole as much as he says then time to prove it!

I won’t because I don’t think there is one! I simply believe that the cooks are better riders than Lawson, but I can certainly agree that in the championship Lawson is the more reliable rider.

If Kennett is in the team then why not give it to him for a season or 2 that’s if he is.

Is he goldilocks? This track is too small, this track is too big.. 😉🤭 Scunny? He only got 6. Order of preference: Ben Zach Rich Although Ben is about as realistic as Chris Holder. I don't really expect it. Problem with Rich is he doesn't want to be captain (or that is the general concenus), so if majority of team are young riders then that becomes an issue.

On paper a good looking young side but can't see a result in heat 13 + 15 with that side, could even struggle at home ( hopefully ) 😜

Think looking at it logically a midweek track is ideal for McDiarmid and him not being at Oxford he would slot into Poole middle order nicely alongside Kennett who I see putting 2points on his average. When Danny Ford said the other day we won’t be favourites and there would be some surprises I think Cairns Being at Number 5 would be McDiarmid would be as a lot of fans would of expected him to stay at Oxford. Not a traditional type Poole team but plenty of room for improvement from everyone in the team. Predicted 1-7 Lawson 8.15 Rushen 5.01 Harrison 5.74 Mcdiarmid 5.53 Cairns 6.44 Kennett 4.62 Lightcap 4.00 Total 39.49
