spin king junior 394 Posted August 12, 2023 Can't see how we're going to fit in Tai, Jack and Tobi realistically. Would take dropping either picko and Ellis for tai and a 2 point rider or making 3 changes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellis and either Howarth or Kerr will give is about 12 or so points to play with, so Tai and a 4 pointer at least will do it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever happens certainly think Jack should be back as soon as he is fit. Edited August 12, 2023 by Dornier Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4BM 116 Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Pickering and Ellis - Out Woffinden and Mountain - In That would put Kerr at 2, Howarth at 4 and Woffinden at 3 1 Holder 2 Kerr 3 Woffinden 4 Howarth 5 Museliak 6 Mountain 7 Gilkes Edited August 12, 2023 by 4BM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spin king 1,923 Posted August 12, 2023 The only way I could fit in Tai based on a 39 point limit and using British 2.5% reductions . Also would depend upon brining in Dimitri Berge. Team being the following; Tai Woffinden Jack Holder Tobiasz Musielak Kyle Howarth Connor Mountain Dimitri Berge (Reserve) Dan Gilkes (Rising Star) Stronger top 3 Weaker Middle Order Still a a strong reserve.

Hamish McRaker 601 Posted August 12, 2023 What are the realistic chances of Jack Holder returning this season? Broken wrists cannot be taken lightly. If he attempts to ride and it goes badly, Sheffield could be stuffed. Could there be a plan that doesn't include him and which avoids the risk? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
