g13webb 4,254 Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) Obviously well done to Poole for clawing back that 10 pts from the other night, but it would be silly to go overboard with the result. The fact Wolves only won 3 races highlights what a poor show it was. Also, added to the fact the meeting was run using last year format was a tremendous advantage to Poole with seasoned professional at reserve. There were many riders who didn't perform to their expected level, else the scores could have been much closer. I don't think this one meeting alters my perception of Poole or Wolves.... Both will be there or thereabouts come the end of the season... Edited March 30, 2017 by GRW123 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 0 Posted March 31, 2017 Leicester in the play-offs?? You obviously see something in that team than no one else does.I accept it's my more out there call but there's a few decent riders in the Leicester side. I think it's under rated by a few ...and Kings Lynn 6th?!!!.....I suspect (and hope, for the posters sanity's sake) that he is on a bit of a "wind up"!! Holders average will lose the bet part of 2 points, Batch has lost it, Porsing has never done anything to impress me, Rose has been around 3 seasons now and has managed to ride about a dozen meetings outnif reserve in the PL and the EL combined so I'm not convinced by him, Huckenbeck had two good meetings last year and they have as good as a blank at number 7. Robert Lambert is a great signing but he can't win things on his own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair play for commenting and putting forward your thoughts on your predictions, I have to say I totally disagree with both of them, but only time will tell who is right! Also disagree with your predicted winners, as their middle order looks weak on paper (Holder, whom I suspect is there mostly because of his name and Kurtz who really HAS to improve this season) and with arguably the most inconsistant (and dare I say, unreliable!) number one in the league, then I think Poole will be fighting for 3rd, 4th or 5th place I reckon.

KK isn't inconsistent. He will have an average way above 9 this season. Pretty rock solid for Poole and I wouldn't at all be suprised if he is in the top three of the averages this year. He hates Monmore but every rider has a track they struggle at .Holder hardly set the world alight at Monmore either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well he is consistent 5 and 7 I suppose!!! Edited March 31, 2017 by Gavan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very weak middle order, a blank at reserve and relying on a kid as your 2nd heat leader. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
