Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted November 18, 2013 Is that last bit a joke? If not why should morten be a certain starter?It's not that he should be, more that he WILL be. We all know it so putting up a 1-7 without him in it is futile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanmuffe 105 Posted November 18, 2013 Riders doubling up are going to be right pain this season, with the elite league clubs having 36 meetings, lots of Premier clubs are going to be missing their top riders. Good luck to those that have to try to sort a fixture list with minimal clashes. personally its been a pain all along and honestly unworkable. That was before the weather and play off deadlines raised their ugly heads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spanner47 336 Posted November 19, 2013 I cant see why some are hoping for wholesale changes. We finished 2nd in the League, and would have won the League cup had it not been for that awful weekend of injuries. Based on that, the side just needs tweeking a bit, happy with Rohan and Cam, in an ideal world we'd have 7 up and coming youngsters who could improve their averages, but being a realist, that's not going to happen for any team. Every team needs a steady reliable middle order, so we all know that Leigh and Morten will do a job in that department. So It's just a case of who's going to be No1, and just as (or more) importantly, what 2 reserves we get. If we want a top No1, then we've got accept that he might not always be here, but who is there? Doyle and Cook are the only two brilliant No1's, and they're ok where they are, Ben was ok last year, but not as good as we'd hope. Richie, he appears to be available, but is a busy lad. I rather go for a half decent No1, and stronger reserves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted November 19, 2013 We need to shed exactly 3 points. Option 1 Replace Ben only and go strength in depth. Up to 6.44 available. Those on 5.80 - 6.44 are Aspergren Bellego Tabaka Fricke Kerr Lemon Kus Nelson Bunyan Howe Jorgensen Aarnio Option 2 go with a 'No1' and make other changes Possibles -Wells Morris Lawson Bach Allen Auty Bech Dyer Bjerre Doolan Karlsson Worral Alden Pijper With Rohan and Cam an absolute must that means we would need to drop Morten or Leigh and bring in a 5 pointer or go with two 3 pointers. Time for new batteries in the calculator!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash 496 Posted November 19, 2013 And so our resident troll returns after his long sabbatical as there was only one person who referred to trophies as egg cups! Morten caused a lot of friction in the pits last season when he got too big for his boots as that is the reason we should get shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roland 63 Posted November 19, 2013 I don't know how this would work points wise down the order............got a hunch new number one may be one Jason Doyle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Ben 8.44 and Morten 6.90 out Wells 7.81 and Sneddon 5.52 in Wells Lanham Tungate Heeps Sneddon Ellis Hawkins 42.49 (I think!!) Edited November 19, 2013 by dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash 496 Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Ben and Morten out with Worrall plus a 5ish pointer in would work. Maybe they could talk Justin Sedgmen to come back on 4.99, or Lewis Blackbird on 4.93. Edited November 19, 2013 by Bash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cowboy cookie returns? 747 Posted November 19, 2013 As there seems to be plenty of names being plucked out of thin air how about Gollob on a 9? Richie Worrall seems a good bet or I think. Gino Manzares would be cool but I suspect he will be EL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted November 19, 2013 Maybe they could talk Justin Sedgmen to come back on 4.99, or Lewis Blackbird on 4.93. just worked out that only 4.70 left with Worrall in and Ben/Morten out so to bring in one of those two would also need Jacobs/Schramm in for Hawkins. Or Ben/Morten/Ritchie out R Worrall/Sneddon/S Worrall in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
