dantodan 314 Posted September 23, 2013 The result of the first leg at Ipswich was 51-39 so Newcastle now know the size of the task facing them. I noticed on Sunday that Morten Risager withdrew from the PLRC. Must be a worry for Ipswich whether he will be able to ride at Newcastle. Does anyone know if he is ok?

There has been no mention of injury for Morten so should be ok. Adam is injured and presumed out - NL guest - no formal announcement as yet 12 points exceeded the expectations of even the most optimistic Witches fans and gives us a real chance. Very even IMO. This may well go all the way to heat 15. 50-40 to the Diamonds with Leigh winning heat 15 to secure the Cup! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super Blue 616 Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) lanham always seems to score well against us. You mean like the 4pts he got in the drawn PL match ? Ooh and almost forgot the 5pts he got in the home defeat to your good selves . Edited September 23, 2013 by Super Blue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After running two lasts in the PLRC, probably a good idea to withdraw rather than take any risks. Busy few days for the Sackers Witches, with play-off matches against the Comets before the trip to Newcastle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No news on who replaces Adam Ellis on Sunday yet. Edited September 25, 2013 by The Abbott Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racin Jason 72 1,283 Posted September 25, 2013 Adam has a decent average so would Steve boxall fit ? If not I'd go for Ben Morley Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevePark 2,783 Posted September 25, 2013 Adam has a decent average so would Steve boxall fit ? If not I'd go for Ben Morley He's the lower of the two reserves (Hawkins 4.07, Ellis 4.06), so NL guest only, I'm afraid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted September 25, 2013 Adam has a decent average so would Steve boxall fit ? If not I'd go for Ben Morley Boxall has been above 4 in the PL previously so not elligible. I agree Morley seems in decent form. There is an Airfence fund meeting at Buxton as well as Mildy meeting so options may be limited!? Would imagine Bates will be riding for Mildenhall in the afternoon - is Louis hiring a supersonic helicopter to take him to Brough Park All of his rides could be 'virtual' on the Louis inside track facility - Im sure Chris could get the arrows working so that Josh picks up some points!
