I don't think a single educated person had anything bad to say against Ace, if they have any understanding of how averages work his average means he is Expected to score two points per meeting. He's doing that and improving. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just think you lot should be happy with what you've got.... You've got a few underscoring and you're still able to win home and away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the majority are happy, but the realists amongst us can see that the chances of a trophy this year are none existent. Racing wise you will not get better racing anywhere else than what we get to see every Friday night. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still one of the better 2 point riders in the league though and he's got a whole lot of time on his side. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Despite him being only 16 there are only three riders in the under 19 final with higher averages, and all [the Thompsons and Mulford] are 19 this year.

You say he is a good young rider, one of the better 2 point riders but despite that you think he is overrated, give me strength. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,879 Posted June 19, 2023 Having a look at the U21 lineup and have to say it's pretty good. Granted no absolute stand outs like bewley etc in the past but plenty similar level riders should make it really tight. Looking forward to see how ace gets on but wonder with it being at ashfield Connor might be favourite? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure Ace managed a nice 3rd place with a pass on the line against Redcar which was great to see. I would hope Mrs Pijper can steer clear from all social media when it comes to her son, but I appreciate that's a tricky balancing act. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
