2016 Swc Semi's And Final 29/30/july 2016

Recommended Posts

Rosco has a very hard job to pick his top 4. watching Bomber last night at Lynn he would have to be picked but on 13th June form you couldn't go near him. Hard to omit a GP rider.

Why is the race-off on Friday this year?

Seems a bit unfair for the winner to have to race on consecutive nights.

2 main reasons

1 to make the attendance bigger for the race-off(normally disappointing)

2 so that fans can make it a weekend away with 1 nights hotel.

teams were only sitting around on the Friday so I`m sure they are happier racing !!

Could be an advantage for them.

The race off on the Friday could well be the equivalent to a final. Makes the price of the "two nights of speedway" ticket an absolute bargain.

Hard to omit Bomber on his Prague GP form. Wont see Danny King doing that.

King would never get a 3rd in a GP. That was my point. I think the UK Championship was a one off top class performance from a middle tier rider.

Neither would Cook though as we saw when he was in a GP last year. I'm not convinced that at the moment Lambert or Nicholls would either

So Harris comes 3rd in a GP & all of a sudden he's a Worldy and nobody else is good enough for GB :lol:

 

Let's see how he gets on at Cardiff first plus other league fixtures before you get carried away

What Rosco needs to do is get all the prospective riders together at BV and have a practice session where they race each other or a team of guest riders.

Perhaps but GP is different thing. King evidently have performed in a SWC event before even if it only was a semi final many years and not a race off/final.

Harris has scored double figures in a lot of league meetings this season as a heatleader and has the highest EL average of any Brit mentioned.
