But for every Josh G we had a Michael penfold. For every Nick Morris there was a Peter juul. We'll see but I'd take a chance our promotion looking at vissing and Starkey over any untried foreigners on a 5 Also helps I think if you get recommendations from riders. Poole had Klindt and Freddie Jakobsen recommending Basso. And there are a few people in Aussie letting Matt know about any Aussies coming through to consider. So if you go for untried riders definitely need some spies out! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With our Danes in the past there is/ was a tigers fan lives in Denmark would recommend them. Owned the club for a year but his name escapes me. We've had good sources in Oz since Lyons and Bowes signed but some have been an horrific flop. Think lyonsy worked with Connor how we got wind of him come to think of it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And not so vocal when they've done it themselves I don't really have a problem with it, riders are self employed tradesmen only ever under contract for eight months at a time, if they can get themselves sorted for the next year nice and early then good for them. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
