Clive Ward 181 Posted April 4, 2017 Lynn website has Rose at 2, Porsing at 3 and Batch 4. Also Josh G at 4 and Paddy the Dane at 5.Before the fast track system came in most teams rode their third heat leader at four to strengthen up heat 14 so you then need your best second string riding at 3 so if the riding order is what it says on the web site I fully agree with that.

Bagpuss 10,822 Posted April 5, 2017 Just important to get off the mark tonight, any kind of win will do. There are no trophies handed out for tonking teams in April. This is a potential banana skin with Somerset likely to be right at home in their big, fast surroundings this evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Likewise I think it is important for the Rebels to show that they are not going to be the pushover everyone suggests. Fingers crossed for a close meeting at least. We've got used to respectful away scores over the last few years. Hopefully we're not going back to the dark old days where Mario Jirout was the only rider to score the majority of our points.

Like you say, I've practically forgot what it's like for us to score any less than 40 points away from home as that's been a massive rarity over the last couple of years. Let's hope we keep it close at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think we have a team that is definitely capable of keeping things close. Paddy is the key, he can trouble the big hitters and that is the key as heat 13 and 15 is going to be KL strongest areas. People wrote us off last year and we showed great team spirit, I'm sure we can show that again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just can't see it being close myself not with Holder, Lambert and Batchelor in town unless of course you have some daft riders who don't know the rules!!

I bet they're plenty of 'Daft riders' who don't know all the rules..... But no doubt the Ref will put that right...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All riders should know the rules, it is their job to know and it is up to the ref to enforce them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
