He said Scott's average is only going one way and he thinks Broc is a much better choice as his average is going to go up not down. It was important to get Broc on board before someone else did, he sees Luke and Broc as the future of our team for the next few years. They think Luke should be announced before Christmas, and they have spoken to both Sam and Jacob in the last couple of days. Both Freddy and Greg were spoken to but have no interest in riding in the UK at the moment, CVS stating that a number 1 is not that important, BV had Fricke and KL had Lambert but neither made the playoffs. There you are then. It’ll be a team 2 points under the limit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC2 11,150 Posted December 11, 2019 And are we supposed to buy into “Scott’s average is going down” ..... .... but Schlein’s is going up? Why not replace Rory will a 7 pointer or a rider on the up? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why not replace Rory will a 7 pointer or a rider on the up? Because he is our captain, and unlike some, Wolves are very loyal to their riders. It's his last year in speedway and there was never a chance he wasn't going to be in the team next year. I actually can't think of a 7 pointer I would rather have in place of Rory.

Swindon were champions because Batchelor had an exceptional year which probably no one saw coming, and Rasmus Jensen was signed on what turned out to be a ridiculous average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rory is not “Wolves through and through”, he’s only ridden for you for three or four seasons and next season will be his last. There is no compelling reason to be loyal to him when you have an extra 2 points to play with. Wolves could have signed Kurtz, Holder, Klindt, Grajkzonek or Kildemand instead!

I recall Peter Karlsson saying how fast Klindt was around Monmore and do you really think the others wouldn’t dial in after a handful of matches? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why are you worrying about our team anyway when you obviously think you will steam roller us.Just concentrate on your own teams short comings it's getting boring now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
