Sgb Championship Best Pairs 2017

Recommended Posts

Check out the current averages.

Newcastle have the best averages, so going on that are certain to qualify.

 

Glasgow and Peterborough are next so you would assume they will battle it out but Ipswich only just behind them

 

If i was asked to say who should win the meeting i would say Newcastle. If i was asked for runners up it would be either Glasgow, Peterborough or Ipswich and they are all in the same group

But worky and Scunny in group A are a long way weaker than the other 6 pairs.

 

And the possible weaker pairs in group B are all capable of taking points off the other pairs in that group.

 

So group A ON PAPER is a straight shoot out between 3 pairs.

 

Group B is much closer across all the pairs. Even Berwick can expect to pick up a decent number of points.

In terms of current averages, Group A has the 2, 3, 7, 9, 10 in the combined averages.

Group B has the 1, 4, 5, 6, 8 in the combined averages.

 

So Group B is obviously closer and therefore tougher.

 

And Ippo are actually only 7th in the combined averages.

We might not be too high in the league, but if there's anything we're in with a chance for, it's the pairs. Gutted i can't make it down there this year, but I hope the diamonds can do it this time round!

Group B possibly stronger all round but group A has got three of the four strongest pairs in it for me so possibly the tougher one to get out of.

Neither group will be easy to get out of , going to be a cracker of a meeting as usual . The jewel in the crown of the Cardiff weekend .

Group A looks weak in comparison to B.

i wouldnt be surprised if the winners came from group a

but as a group i agree group b looks the harder 1 to qualify from

Lambert souldn't have any equipment issues, he already has bikes in Poland which he intends to use in the World Cup so must be decent and I would assume he will use the same in the U21's.

No Somerset this year so no Home Advantage

But hang on we have 5 riders with Home Advantage (it was bad enough when just Somerset were represented with 2 riders) the home advantage moaners can now have a field day.

 

Richard Lawson

Michael Palm Toft

Lewis Kerr

Josh Grajczonek

Charles Wright

 

Difficult decision for the Rebels fans which one to cheer for.

Home advantage? Then the Scunny pair will walk this. :lol:

Group A looks weak in comparison to B.

You never fail 😂😂

Robert Lambert and Jack Holder could have some equipment difficulties as their best Equipment needs to be in Poznan 1st thing Sunday morning for the world U21 1st round .

id have thought Lambert already has gear over there given hes riding over there this season.

Not forgetting ex Rebels Morris and Masters.

 

Howarth and Barker as well although a long time ago in Ben's case. Proctor probably just qualifies as an ex-Rebel also :lol:
