Bald Bloke 3,287 Posted September 5, 2018 I think Kurtz is an average thing if i'm honest. Was there much passing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Kurtz has been poor all season apart from 1 or 2 meetings Richie Worrall rider of the night lol. Signed to replace a heat leader and now at reserve. Gets beat by a national league rider in heat 2, passes a hardly bothered Morris a couple of times and he is lauded. 8 from reserve against poor reserves.....won’t be as easy against Allen and Summers. Rider of the night clearly Josh G doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work that out. Worrall and Woryna scores 13 between them tonight With Woryna at reserve at home they have scored 18,14,17 and 22 against good opposition. They rode against poor reserves and weak second strings tonight and still couldn’t match what they have been. Worrall only getting 8 from reserve he will need to step up when Somerset come to town. Nice to see a match report ..... oh Poole won Edited September 5, 2018 by Gavan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starman2006 2,354 Posted September 5, 2018 1 hour ago, Steve Shovlar said: An entertaining meeting tonight played out in front of a good crowd. Poole completely dominant but some very good races once the outside line appeared. Rider of the night was Richie Worrall imo who produced some superb moves from the back, the best on Nick Morris who didn’t know what hit him. Deserved heat 15 ride when it was all done and dusted. Josh also on excellent form with a paid max. Deserved heat 15 but gave it up to Richie. So now the regular season is finished who fancies Pirates in the semi? Guess it will be Somerset with the first leg at the Oak tree. For Poole. Kurtz was poor. A third followed by an ef is not good enough. He won his next before he kept getting in Harris way in heat 13 blocking bombers move on Masters. We know he is a lot better than this. Josh G was faultless. A far cry from early season. Klindt penalised himself in his first by jumping at the gate. After that was solid. Woryna scored in every heat. Not his best but solid. Harris was very good value. Worrall had his best meeting for a while. Two excellent passes. Jakobsen was very good value. Fell asleep in one allowing Thorsell through. For Wolves. Masters started poorly in his first three but turned it around with three fast gates. Howarth was poor by his usual Wimborne Road standards Andersen struggled on his first visit. Nick Morris won his first then was overtaken in two of his other rides. Ashley Morris struggled. Ayres suprisingly won heat 2 when he gated and rode sensibly to hold off the Poole boys. That was it from him. Loads more for Poole to do. Lots of improvement there. But tonight Kurtz misfired while the rest were getting on it. We need all 7 to click together to progress to the final. Haven’t done it much this season so it’s now or never. On another note, Luke Becker was being shown around Wimborne Road by Gordon Pairman. Left after the meeting so not sure if he went out and took a spin. At the interval he went out on the track and was kicking around the starting gate. No Becker didnt have a spin Steve..

Kurtz will ultimately cost Poole any chance of the league and Woryna unable to buy a win when he moves up. Josh showing a bit of form but can’t see Somerset overly worried heats 13 and 15 could be 10-2 in both matches! Reserves win meetings Gavan.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pooles reserves all season have won them meetings as they regularly have smashed the opposing teams bottom 2...... apart from the meetings against Somerset Richie Worrall should easily be capable of double figures against a side , like Wolves , who have poor reserves. Woryna at reserve was cleaning up. The switch between those 2 positions have weakened Poole. Reserves can win meetings but so it can big hitters and Poole don’t have one. Harris will be Harris 9-12 a meeting. Josh was excellent tonight but could easily get 5 next meeting I was wrong about Klindt he has done really well since signing Woryna only got 5 tonight and if he does that against Somerset and Worrall can’t beat Allen and Summers then Poole lose simple as that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bur basically it’s no good having a reserve get 12 if your number one keeps getting 5 or 6 they cancel each other out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted September 6, 2018 Can this side go up a couple of gears and win the whole thing?? it has the potential to do it but i cant see it the side is to flakey.Somerset and King's Lynn look more solid and the most worrying thing for me is that in the last couple of week's Poole's reserves have lost to 2 NL riders in Brennan/ Ayres.

foreverblue 6,096 Posted September 6, 2018 If Brady doesn't up his level for the playoffs we are stuffed but we all know he can do it. He was crap at Kings Lynn but came out and beat Robert Lambert in a race so there is hope. The rest of the team are all doing their job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
