Shadders 4,135 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Tyson Nelson came 4th in the second round of the Aussie championships, beating Grajczonek, Fricke & Masters in the B final. Promising. Still no sign of a visa though Edited January 5, 2015 by Shads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul 67 Posted January 5, 2015 The visa situation is indeed worrying. With all the changes that seem to be about to happen it's gone very quite on the press release front. Kinda think this will be Lens swansong in 2015. I wonder if anyone promoter has had some kind of meeting in there honour while they've been alive? If anyone deserves one such meeting it has to be Len Silver. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His Facebook status last Australia Day was disappointing. I know a couple of OZ riders who were amazed that he got into the country in the first place. I remember reading last year that his was the only visa refusal that wasn't speedway related. I'd be quite happy for the same again this year. Apart from the iffy character, he's too similar in style & inconsistency to Jason Garrity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apart from the iffy character, he's too similar in style & inconsistency to Jason Garrity. Tyson was great entertainment 2013, we missed him big time last season. Personally I hope he's back this year, and if he applies himself, will definitely improve his average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

junior fan 132 Posted January 8, 2015 Depends who's in to replace him. Tyson Nelson on his Aussie Champs form would be a match winner I watched Tyson at Gillman and Mildura in the Aussie titles and on that form I would want him in my side. I believe most of his issues were when he was a little younger, people grow up and in my opinion he deserves his chance. Junior 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bolly 96 Posted January 9, 2015 Ed K - Confident and classy for the PL, tried 100% every race I saw him in last season Jason G and Nelson - Excitement but inconsistent Kasper - Excitement if he can get away from the line Jakobsen - Wild Card (hopefully another Linus) Luke - Dependable Steve B - With good machinery and a bit of application, worth his place in the team. Overall and without injuries, could be very strong at home and maybe get the odd point at away tracks. Lots of ifs and buts, but being ever the optimist (unlike Shads, lol) I hope we can be mid-table vying for one of the minor play off spots. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
