Bagpuss 10,780 Posted August 28, 2023 Holder is a busted flush, don't see these changes making them an awful lot stronger personally but we shall see. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTT 1,227 Posted August 28, 2023 That's one hell of a gamble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spin king 1,923 Posted August 28, 2023 Tai is a decent replacement for Jack Holder, in fact given the choice of the two I would go with Tai. Chris Holder for Adam Ellis should improve the team, Adam has been off form all season. Vissing for Kerr, won't be a popular choice. Vissing is not a popular rider at Sheffield.

But one it seems they had to make. “Commitment issues” clearly aimed at Ellis, and going by his last outing I guess they had no choice but to make changes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellis and Kerr to Leicester then in place of Sedgmen or Worrall and Cook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeW436 595 Posted August 28, 2023 The Chris Holder that averaged 4.3 points in 8 matches for Leszno this season, it’s certainly a gamble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, I would've kept Kerr though and just looked for an Ellis replacement considering the Tigers are likely to face Wolves in the play-offs (Track Noddy hates) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not too sure about Adam going in for either Sedgie or Worrall. Or maybe a change of track might just be the change he needs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My thinking as well....don't really like the rule with riders coming in for the play offs but these changes are like for like at best 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In two of their recent matches Holder only completed two of his rides before being substituted by a team member. Didn’t contribute much to the scoring. Just rides mid track, not a good signing.
