New era Panthers 2,055 Posted November 24, 2016 just as long as he does not go out of date with the promotion and they make another rash decision and bring in another 2.00 er at toms expense . Thanks for your sound advice . I hope is doesn't come to that either , looks like a good prospect as well,, I actually suggested a couple of weeks ago to Trevor Swales for the NO7 position if they go for a 2 pointer then they should be looking at C.Mountain, J.Smith or Tom Bacon , so i'm well pleased with this signing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pob 545 Posted November 24, 2016 Would say he'll be one of the better 2 pointers next season , will he be the cure to your very long tail at the end of last season ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His reserve partner will be interesting. Not sure having a 5 pointer there is necessary in such a watered down league Edited November 24, 2016 by Flappy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lukas 911 Posted November 24, 2016 It realy is a lottery with these young guys who haven't done this level of racing before..some take to it, some don't. We had Stokes and Halsey last season who were out of their depth for us and then you get Hume who was superb for Ippo on a lower average than them 2 guys so you just don't know until the tapes go up. Let's hope Tom Bacon can hit the ground running like Tom Perry did for us last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lukas 911 Posted November 24, 2016 I'd be looking at Ash Morris and Lambert next and then rounding off the team with a some big hitters. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flappy 1,610 Posted November 24, 2016 So presuming Lambert and ostergaard are nailed on due to relationships etc with the promotion, that leaves us with 18.87 for the remaining 3 riders. We may get our big hitter after all. 1 2 Lambert 3 Hansen 4 5 Ostergaard 6 7 Bacon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We may get our big hitter after all. 1 2 Lambert 3 Hansen 4 5 Ostergaard 6 7 Bacon Two potential ways of looking at it: 1- 8pt ave No1 and 2 5pt ave - Leaving us with a strong reserve all the time or 2- 2 7pt ave riders and a 3/4pt ave rider - Leaving us with a strong middle order and potentially weaker tail Edited November 24, 2016 by Panther1997 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
