I'd be happy with his signing. He fell off once a week when he was a Monarch if I remember correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Blobby 2,662 Posted December 23, 2023 Needs to find more consistency in his gating to be an out and out number 1. Otherwise we’ll have the same issues as last year in the big heats. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I do seem to remember him losing quite a few 5-1s at home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lawson and Cook also higher Exciting to watch though, no doubt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JanAndersen 822 Posted December 23, 2023 Still a bit to play with. Any obvious candidates if we go with Sedgmen and Riss? I feel Paco will be included though so that kills that notion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As things stand my vote would be to keep Lasse & Paco and add Eric which would come in under 38.00. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
