Fenway Bleachers 2,665 Posted July 10, 2016 Tai,King Lambert and Bomber likely the team. Rosco has never picked Cookie at any and has blinkers there. Eddie Kennett more likely! We will struggle to get a medal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allthegearbutnaeidea 1,735 Posted July 10, 2016 Must be some second string with a 7+ average plus being the highest averaged Brit. Ellis beating Jonsson round a wee kiddies track means nothing. Strange comment from an Edinburgh fan... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,397 Posted July 11, 2016 Whatever the Team don't think you can pick Harris over King.Harris was going backwards on Sat.King has decent BV form. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted July 11, 2016 Must be some second string with a 7+ average plus being the highest averaged Brit. Ellis beating Jonsson round a wee kiddies track means nothing. Highest averaged Brit in the Peterboorugh team maybe! Kennett 8.67 Harris 8.1 Lambert 7.86 Newman 7.76* Worrall 7.55* Lawson 7.45 Cook 7.31 Nicholls 7.22 *Mainly reserve All averages with bonus points as they're a better guide to riders form/level/worth. Without bonus points Nicholls goes above though for the record. http://speedway-stats.co.uk/Averages/2016/1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A ORLOV 8,628 Posted July 11, 2016 Denmark likely to be heading to the fri playoffs, but they will need better riders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry 1,319 Posted July 11, 2016 Good to have a full strength Russian Team. I'll be sticking a few quid on them at 18/1 with Boylesports. It definitely looks like the race-off for the Danes now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 1,497 Posted July 11, 2016 Denmark likely to be heading to the fri playoffs, but they will need better riders. maybe the two GP riders are certainties for the main team. Nielsen using the home leg to pick his 4th rider with Iversen as Captain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iris123 21,037 Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Isn't it a strategy Denmark have used before?Thought they(previous management)like the idea of getting track time in at the Race-Off.Always a gamble and taking the p slightly out of their home crowd.Hope lots of tickets already sold Edited July 11, 2016 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panthers89 1,922 Posted July 11, 2016 Wow what a weird line up for Denmark. Love the look of the Polish and Russian sides! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New Science 1,059 Posted July 11, 2016 Are the Danes having a laugh ?. Who in there right mind would want to go into the race off . If the Russians win in Event 1 (not impossible) they could be lumped in the race off with Poland , probably Australia and USA with only 1 place available. Absolute madness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted July 11, 2016 Can't really judge it by that as only cook and Harris have rode as a heat leader the whole time the rest haven'tOK but on what basis did you say he was the highest averaged brit?Pretty sure lambert has ridden most of his meetings as hl, so even if you weighted averages I would suggest cook is only 3rd.
