BWitcher 12,453 Posted June 5, 2018 Very sensible interview from Woffinden.. and pretty much shows he was right to what he did all along. GB has a bright future. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell of a leap for a kid I would have used Bewley instead of Lambert at reserve. And then moved Lambert up into the team. Give Bewley the experience. Cook is not good enough in a world class field as he has always showed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps, but GB and Australia wasn't one of them, and some of the better action came from seemingly one-sided contests. Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got to say I will feel more comfortable with Cook & Lambert in Poland although would have been great experience for Bewley, who is a hell of a prospect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BWitcher 12,453 Posted June 5, 2018 Lucky for the Czechs there. Milik not a clue, did nothing to help his partner at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nw42 2,048 Posted June 5, 2018 Here's hoping Milik & Franc can do the Aussies, would be a perfect end to the meeting if they could. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that race had been a 3-3 then Australia would have been in 2 run offs and with potential engine failure or a fall they could have gone out. Tai been cruising up until then. Look what speed he had to win against Sweden, and look at the 3-3 Aussie got against Finland. Aussie was in trouble an I see it as Tai helped them out. It could have put GB in a predicament. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the French had a better chance, can't see Franc being quick enough to stay ahead even if he got there.. especially as he's likely to receive zero help from Milik.. whereas both the French had some speed. Hopefully I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He messed up at the start. I don't think it helps at all to keep making accusations that Tai favours Team Aussie over Team GB. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
