Those in the know seem to be hinting that a deal to sign Worrall by Glasgow has already been done (as happened with Basso two years ago) which would explain his poor form (IMO) towards the end of the season. I make it 7.11 over the last four meetings and had guessed he’d been told by Poole that he was being released at the end of the season so wasn’t trying so hard. I’m probably completely wrong, usually am. Definitely not tongue in cheek Doesn't matter what Steve Worrall scored in last 4 meetings playoffs/KO cup don't count for averages anyway. 7 is still a heat leader, especially if building teams to 38 points. No idea if Steve's been signed. Edited October 25, 2023 by gmarsbar2 additional info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose our days of taking these risks on Aussies and Danes are gone, just pick up the ones who look like will make the grade elsewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nowak regularly beat Masters et al in Poland but averaged less than 6 here. Its not always of equivalence what they do elsewhere where tracks are totally different. In a 42 point team you can risk an unknown quantity on a 5 but at 38 every point is a prisoner and needs put to good use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rowe being the prime example, with the rumoured reduction he could start as a third heat leader but he's no where near that in reality yet. Dropped by Poole and don't really see where else he will end up in the CL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
