Joe Beevers 207 Posted October 17, 2023 With a rumoured 38 points limit and with the usual British average percentage reductions of averages I can see something like: (Please note rough averages) 1) S Worrall 8.00 2) Jack Thomas 4.80 or A Foreigner 5.00 3) Zach Cook 6.20 4) Anders Rowe 5.90 5) Ben Cook 7.40 6) Joe Thompson 3.60 7) Sam Hagon 2.60 All riders imo have potential to improve averages.

lisa-colette 6,032 Posted October 17, 2023 Still think they will keep Richard as he is an asset. Then if you have both Cook's that leaves just over 16 for 4 riders if we are working to a 38 point limit. Poole DJ is going to go on about Tom Brennan coming to Poole now as he has wanted him here for past few seasons but as he is on 7. 15 average, would have to be instead of Ben Cook, so can't see that.

Mike0310 660 Posted October 17, 2023 It’s alright going on about the cooks but if I’m not wrong is it not right one of them is a Plymouth asset,so don’t get to carried away Poole fans,and before I hear he doesn’t want to ride for Plymouth fair enough buy him,if not maybe he won’t be riding in anyones team, maybe the highest bidder will get him. If he’s not a Plymouth asset anymore I’m sorry for wasting peoples time reading my ramblings lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szkocjasid 3,031 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) If it's a 38 limit, how about? With a lower limit could probably expect plenty teams with 2.00 reserves, so Poole would have strength there & if the Cook's can continue their trend of upping their averages, shouldn't be a bad heat leader trio! Poole Richard Lawson 8.48 Ben Cook 7.39 Zach Cook 6.22 Drew Kemp 5.19 Stefan Nielsen 3.75 Joe Thompson 3.51 Adam Roynon 3.41 Total 37.95 Edited October 17, 2023 by szkocjasid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panthers99 434 Posted October 18, 2023 I'd rather go for a 2.00 rider instead of Roynon and have Rowe or another 6.00 rider instead of Nielsen 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,032 Posted October 18, 2023 Poole YT channel just put this up. Features Josh G, is that a hint Though it just reminds us what an amazing team rider Darcy was. Tai was with them for most of the race and still he team rides Josh G around. Lots of no1's would clear off for the win if that was happening to them. Anyway back to 2024... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Noelinho 922 Posted October 18, 2023 That would be a handy team with good gaps between the averages so the lineup doesn’t get messed around during the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both cleaned up that day. It was pre-meeting heats before Rye House took on Poole. I've since seen him develop at Leicester & he's a very good prospect.

You are correct Zach is a Plymouth asset but it really doesnt matter, he will ride where he wants for a loan fee, no need to buy him, i suppose Plymouth could say if you want him buy him but that rarely happens.
