  1. Our hopes of anything other than a wooden spoon this year kind of depended on if Klindt came good, but if a rider doesn't want to ride for you then Rye are right to open the door for him.

    Rasmus Jensen or Anton Rosen would be the best shouts to replace him but neither are strong enough heatleaders, that's what you get with four 5 point riders in the team..

    Would have dropped Kasper and put Branford in at 6, but most fans new our mistake when Peterborough made their first signing!

     

    Certainly seems like an Aussie to me if they are just needing paperwork to be sorted before announcing, there are few untried in the Australian Championships but, as already stated Somerset have probably bagged the one with most potential. Hope it's not another Kurt Shields?

  2. Branford has a PL average so doesn't qualify to be a Premier League number 7, so Ben doesn't have anything to worry about?

     

    Disappointed Hughes isn't back to be honest, yes the top 2 will dominate the latter heats but having 4 three point riders in the team instantly puts pressure on them, would have much preferred a more solid looking team.

  3. Chessell could be an absolute bargain on that average, although the same thing has been said the past couple of seasons and it's not materialized yet.

     

    As Patchett put in his press release, capable of beating anyone on his day but often overdoes it and falls when in points scoring positions.

     

    So who is the fifth rider returning to the Sport? :unsure:

  4. The only thing I would worry about is that on the PC it's fine to run a Speedway Championship game, you complete the series then go back and do it again, but would that be enough on console?
    For the PS4/Xbox it would be better if the League was introduced, so that you could continue the game for much longer with the added characteristics that the leagues bring.

  5. With two changes, Boxall and Greenwood out, we haven't got much scope other than like for like replacements. Mattress for Boxall would leave us 3.57 to replace Greenwood. Hawkins would fit but he was dire last time he ride for us and it appears he's been the same this year. Better to persist with Greenwood or another youngster.

     

    If Kasper is out longer term we could make three changes, it'd be key to keep Robin at reserve though IMO or bring in someone else who could score heavily in a reserve berth.

    How do you propose they bring in squad systems when there's so many injured riders at the moment and nobody to an equivalent standard to replace them?

  6. Who is eligble to take the RR for Aaron and is it one ride per rider?

    The rider one above Baseby in the averages which is James Shanes and all below (Ayres, Couzins, Verge and Smith), only Ben Morley can't.

     

    Those in the top 5 can take one of his rides each, reserves can take any amount within their 7 maximum rides permitted.

     

    Make sense? :lol:
