Yep that’s right Thomson had a great year in 22 another good ausie Queenslander , Allen had his problems , scunny thread best describes this, hard to raise av in heat leader positions when coming back from a wrist injury , Thomson no doubt will get a crack at some stage in 23 if good enough,team managers pick best team possible it’s that simple 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lenny Lion 138 Posted December 28, 2022 Good signs from Justin Sedgmen , Finished 4th in the Oceania Final . The line up was very strong. The meeting was won by Adam Ellis with Doyle & Woffinden 2nd & 3rd respectively Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After the lad that finished 5th, it’s a bit of a stretch to suggest that was a strong line up. If he hadn’t beaten the rest of them that would have been a concern…… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happy Hunter 370 Posted January 6, 2023 It's interesting to see that there's no mention of the dates for the Jubilee Trophy Final against Poole in the Lion's fixtures published today. Does anyone know when they might be? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This Inter-league Challenge ( as it now is) is expected to be to start the season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only way to complete the Jubilee League would be using last year's teams, so the riders who qualified for the final, race in the final! If you allow guests to strengthen Poole / weaken Leicester then it can surely only be a challenge match? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know it's not a Premiership fixture but there's no reason Lion's can't put the Jubilee Trophy fixtures on their own Web site! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris116 756 Posted January 7, 2023 They can't be sure of when it is possible to run until the Championship fixtures are published. Both teams will be waiting for both leagues fixtures to confirmed before announcing a date only to be forced to change it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
