There is also the fact, as Rob has said about obtaining visa's & setting up for a rider as the visa situation is normally started end of the year but Declan could use Zaine's set up over here. If there is a rider out there then you have to be looking at a young European who has not raced in the better Euro Leagues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eric i 621 Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Drew kemp 13+2 from 8 rides from his first 2 meetings in Poland. 5.33 average gained from riding in Pooles main body he would be best reserve in the league. Get Kinsley in for Joe thompson. Edited April 26, 2023 by eric i 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not for a straight swap as would be 5.23 and Kennedy is 4.27. Unless Scunny are going to bring in assessed 4 pointer in, they would have to change someone else as well.

I do not know where the 5.23 average comes from, I can only assume it is used to isolate riders who are British so some unknown foreigner can come in and cost a fortune and be useless as well.

As you said he did well last season so that is why he has that average! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
