thebaron 434 Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) For me it was always a flick of a coin for one of the available Aussies. Not least because of their increased track time in the past year or so. Josh MacDonald was unlucky to be cut loose by Pirates so its a great opportunity for him. Had made progress at Sheffield in 2019 so has the track knowledge already. On a 4 point averages means Lambo steps up into the main body of the team. Six and two threes though because JP & JMac should be amongst the points at reserve. Meaning that they and Lambo become interchangeable ? Auty, Lambert, Tommy, Pijper, Aarnio, Jordy and JMac it is then ? No No1 there on the face of it. Auty should have it tapped round Scunny but up against sides with two No1s its going to be tough going away. Still everyones been out for nigh on 18 months so no one really knows how well any of the riders will fair when they return to regular league racing. 2021 is at least a summer of some Speedway and win lose or draw lets be thankful for that. Just watching how we get on is going to be really interesting and especially having a true rising star in Jordan Palin in his senior league racing debut season adds that bit extra to the anticipation. Reminds me of when Kenny Carter made the step up in his first season for the Dukes ! If hes half as good we will have a rider.

I think there holding on incase a higher ranked rider becomes available ,to me Pyper and Lambert will be at risk as McDonald will increase his 4pt starting average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan555 144 Posted April 8, 2021 Just seen that Benji Compton has announced he is riding for Belle Vue Colts so I think that explains him being back on a bike and possibly rules him out of the Scunthorpe seat a little more to be honest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scunny1 436 Posted April 9, 2021 Benji Compton stands as much chance of signing for us as Danny Phillips! Macdonald is not in same class as Jake, but not many riders available, and Rob will definitely not break the bank just yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
