Ipswich 2023

[Col 870]

Doyle is Foxhall signed, sealed, delivered on the Ekstraliga App. Like Fricke at Leicester & Bewley at NSS.

The eWinner liga 1 App is less useful, it hasn't been updated since the season ended.

I see Louis won the most gullible promoter on the Fan Power Awards.

Can the Witches afford both Doyle and Zagar?

Should do because the combined cost of this team should be about average imo.

1. Jason Doyle

2. Troy Batchelor

3. Danny King

4. Erik Riss

5. Matej Zagar

6. Danyon Hume

7. Drew Kemp (RS)

[Baldyman 6,243]

Not sure Zagar is worth it personally,, not with with his genuine dislike for most tracks apart from Belle Vue

Good around Ipswich though.

Probably his second best track (scoring wise) going by the statistics.

Zagar has looked quite classy around Foxhall when I have seen him but think we will see this side having spoken to a few people over the weekend

1. Doyle 10.32
2. Riss 6.00
3. King 6.40
4. Cook 4.92 / Kerr 4.59
5. Holder 7.29
6. Hume 3.98
7. Rowe R/S

It is a shame that the Witches promotion are not forward thinking as a rider like Frederik Jakobsen at no.2 or 4, replacing Cook/Kerr would have sprinkled a little more hype on this team, the last rider at no.4 is going to make or break such a team, you could have Batch at no.2, Riss at no.4 and have Starke replacing Hume.

1. Doyle
2. Batchelor
3. King
4. Riss
5. Holder
6. Starke
7. Rowe

Starke had a poor season last season but do you go with him, allow Doyle/Kings averages to drop then redeclare a bit stronger?

Why is Hume not the RS?

Sounds like he doesnt meet the criteria now based on age/experience 

Bailey, jenkins, Thompson, kemp, flint, edwards, thomas, gilkes, mulford, bates hehe etc not sure on any of their ages tho

Does Hume not get a 25% reduction on his rs achieved average?

if he does then you could have Hume in place of Rowe in second proposed team

Hume is popular, but injury prone, and possibly not going much further at 26 …

Hume is popular because he is a nice guy as much as his riding but personally I think he still has a lot of potential and will improve next season.

Agree having a journeymen like cook or Kerr at 4 hints at lack of imagination/forward thinking. Personally I'd have someone else at 3 too but I really can't see King being anywhere else.
