I know nothing about the lad and couldn't care less about Poland so I'm a bit naive As far as I know the under 24 ekstraliga is a mid week league?? Also Keynan Rew is a brilliant rider and one of the world's top prospects... he would tear the championship apart imo... he'd be an 8 point rider by the end of the season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

W9 Lion 227 Posted March 6, 2023 4 hours ago, lisa-colette said: I think it is mostly down to his average. Especially considering most teams have high averaged riders and then really low averaged riders. Also half of his average is from Leicester and there is no Leicester (in this league). That's why I asked what his away average was last season as a guide. I can understand fans looking at his scores at Poole and not being sure. But it must be easier to ride Poole as a Poole rider than riding Poole as an away rider, as you have battle the track you might only see once or twice a year and the home team. According to the programme freom the last home meeting Dan's away average was 4.29 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leszno decided to loan him out to Gdansk Coast in Lge 1 for 2023 to give him more experience against more experienced/better class riders. He is following a similar path to what they did with Jamon Lidsey. This means racing mainly Sundays so no real clashes with UK Prem or Champ. Also in a POL interview he stated that besides Ipswich he also wanted to secure a Champ slot (for which he would be a 5 point rider and not 4 only because he has raced in competitive racing in POL Lge 2 and DK Prem). I understood it was more a cost issue previously in view of flights/mechanic/equipment/accommodation/workshop etc as he planned to base himself in POL with I think his POL girlfriend. You would not have such costs with a Rowe or Kemp or Thompson much as I would like to see Rew at Poole.

kevin bass 296 Posted March 6, 2023 I'm sure Rowe had based himself in Poland last season and was happy just to race over there in their league after he lost his team place in both league's over here, dunno where he's gonna be based this coming season tho.

Would definitely place Drew Kemp and Thompson well above Morley. Rew clearly the best option but probably unachievable given the short notice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I expect him to do really well in the Premiership too. ———— As some others have said now, Rew rides for Gdansk in Poland in 2023. They will ride on Saturdays and Sundays mostly I believe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
