I don't know if he's in Scunny's plans, just picking teams with unannounced riders. Edited November 26, 2023 by szkocjasid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He had bad season last year but his average is based on him riding in the main body on a track he didn't seem to get on with. Every year previously he has been a dependable 5 or 6 point second string, is he really in decline at 33 years of age? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S.worral 7.84 k.Howarth 7.76 J.Allen 7.16 S.Lambet 5.87 Z. Kennedy 4.27 N.Ablett 2.93 L.Harrison 2.00 total 37.83 To be fair thats where I am with it. That way we have made as good a stab at covering the loss of Ryan wth two No1s. With Jake there its a powerful top three, but Lambo in 2023 form makes it a top four !. It is going to be the "top heavy" teams that gain in the Chanpionship this year. Zaine is a steal returning on a 4.27 average btw. While Nathan can push on from 2023's great efforts at reserve. Luke Harrisons the 2p RS but no pressure on him he can develop in a team like this. I commend this 1-7 to the Management. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe he did say he was stepping away from Edinburgh and the Championship. Like Ryan he wanted to push on in the Euro Leagues But subsequently I read he could well be back in the Championship. He would be my "pick" to replace Ryan. Absolute "box office" racer around the EWR. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought he might be the other one at 2nd string/ reserve but this lower points limit is hurting a few teams & riders. Trying to bring through the youth with the loss of the NDL could mean some riders out of their depth & some riders out of a job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
