It's just a matter of opinion, but 0 points from 6 rides from 3 of the tail doesn't bode well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hume and Edwards are no slouches round Berwick and Mulford got paid 10 in his visit to Shielfield with Kent.Don’t see the weak tail. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSC67 1,467 Posted March 29, 2023 Tough one to start the season with , The Bandits may win this but it's al going to depend on the first leg and what sort of deficit they have to pull back. I can't make this one due to a prior commitment, hope it's a decent meeting with no injuries and it's not too cold . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if you are referring to thier scores at home, but Newcastle had Championship second strings at 6&7 not the 2.00 riders Berwick have! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandit59 1,155 Posted March 29, 2023 If we can keep Friday nights score to no more than an 8 point defeat I'd be hopeful lot depends on how Jyes shoulder holds up over both meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, their reserve pair were of quality, (especially Mountain, Bowtelle has never barely scored a point around Redcar). We need our second stings to come the party, because if their reserves get a couple apiece, we could be struggling. Has anyone seen Danyon Humes scores around Redcar. I think the best is 5 from 5 with Poole, the rest well below that. Don;t get me wrong I would love to see him succeed. I live in hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
