Paddy The Rebel 300 Posted December 7, 2015 Agree with whats been said will take some beatings away and take a bit of time to gel at home with 3new riders,this could well be a team that peaks ready for the play offs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allthegearbutnaeidea 1,744 Posted December 7, 2015 I like this team, will be really exciting to see, dont think it will win anything but is interesting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,698 Posted December 7, 2015 So i take it the rule on Aussies has changed back to a 5.00 then if so what was the point in putting up to a 7.00 last year just to change it back the following year. Or does Allen have a British great great Uncle or something nobody has told us about. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shadders 4,137 Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) lets face it the Somerset Promotion are never afraid to make changes if necessary.  Sometimes before the season has even started  this could well be a team that peaks ready for the play offs.But not with that line up Edited December 7, 2015 by Shads 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JCookie 753 Posted December 7, 2015 It's crap but they need to start again somewhere, no doubt BWD / Allen / Zach etc will be part of the future which might not be so crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gusworld 15 Posted December 7, 2015 Looks like the weakest team I've seen assembled in a long time. The three assessed riders are unproven and will take a while to get used to PL tracks and no third heat leader. Expect some thrashings away and a lot more closer meetings at home. Can't see us winning anything with this team but at least the match scores and racing will be interesting at home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 15 Posted December 7, 2015 So either Aussies are a 5 now or Somerset has messed up for the 3rd year in a row. What will it be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,714 Posted December 7, 2015 Jake Allen didnt make top 4 in Queensland so still needs to achieve that in another state final yet.... So either Aussies are a 5 now or Somerset has messed up for the 3rd year in a row. What will it be?there are a number posting that there has indeed been a rule change back to an entry on 5.Also seem to imply that cant drop below that starting 5. Further more to requalify it seems that the 7 is still required as Proctors 6.68 was not sufficient and he still required the state final place?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedcarRacer 229 Posted December 7, 2015 I dont see the issue, as soon as the first averages come in, they will make at least one big signing to add to it, that is how I would see it. No way that team will finish the season, even if they all avoided injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,714 Posted December 7, 2015 didn't ty win the Victorian championship and therefore is entitled to APPLY for a visa ?yes he did but without that his 6.68 would be considered not good enough despite a new rider (apparently) only having to be good enough to be considered a 5.
