Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted August 23, 2019 Thomsen back odviously he hasn't shown he is good anough yet, also the Dane is aloud to have a stint at reserve.What real shabby treatment Nathan Stoneman and Danyon Hume have been dealt this season really poor we should be helping our lads not hindering them. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waco 1,026 Posted August 23, 2019 Hume ,,Morley ,,,,Stoneman ,,,should all have been considered in front of a foreign rider of poor ability. What's the matter with these promoters nowdays 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waco 1,026 Posted August 23, 2019 Morley has a higher average than both has been National league riders champion twice.but then your an expert on booze in Aussie...I can't compete with that ,! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is absolute garbage at this level though and has had many chances . Why not try Thomsen? Having a higher average than the other two means absolutely sod all. Barrie Evans used to be superb in the NL and then rubbish in the Championship , much like Morley. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One thing i would say is Pinny, Morley has achieved his average in a very tough 1/5 position and the Championship is a tough old league.Be interesting to see if Eastbourne replace Wood with Hume i don't know if the rules prevent it but you would think Connor Mountain would appreciate extra rides in the NL.? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinny 2,536 Posted August 24, 2019 Im sorry but Morley has been around for ages with Rye , Arena and Eastie and hasnt done anything . Espiecially in the main body of the team. Hume , Stoneman and Mountain are all younger and have some potential. Morley no. If i was a promoter i certainly wouldnt touch him. Been many around like him before , good in the 3rd tier rubbish in the second. Barrie Evans , Martin Williams are two i remember at Newport, Chris Courage is another , Karl Mason ..... good in the conference but rubbish when stepping up.

One thing i will say though Pinny Ben really has tried to get better on the bigger tracks hence his move to the Isle of Wight.I do see your point though and Hume/Stoneman with prolonged injury free runs are championship riders.Your point about Evans is spot on and going back to the old Conference league the career of James Wright really disappointed me he was terrific for Buxton and Worky and also had a decent time as a robin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruckerroo 792 Posted August 24, 2019 You need improvers, hume and Stoneman are improvers but very injury prone, morleys best 2 tracks are shut and he has no improvement in him at all, his level is what he is, that's why at 4.81 pre season he was a bad bet, on a 3 then ok but his average was attained at lakeside where 90 % away riders cant handle. People said Eastbourne did wrong moving Jason Edwards in, but hes 16, trying hard and getting a few points, great for his future development. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danny Phillips. Granted he's had a few accidents but not getting any better. Unfortunately for us. But other riders for the Diamonds are going through a bad spell. Worst team for the Diamonds for years. Never out of the top 3 with Ian Thomas but generally near the bottom 3 now. Ian Thomas must be spinning in his grave.
