Paulco 7,090 Posted April 10 If we are actually out of the monsoon season before Friday we might get our home campaign up and running . Our nearest and dearest are first up and they arrive with much the same mediocre side as last year . Pickering is always good value right enough , but the rest ?????. Thomson has the odd decent meeting around Ashfield , the Italian porn star has the odd competitive race in him , can't see the rest doing too much . I'm assuming Lee will still be kicking his heels waiting on the second test result to clear him , so we will possibly need a guest reserve . So if we can put the canoes away I think a 20 point home win should be achievable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,879 Posted April 10 Sedgy had couple decent meetings guesting last season, particularly in the enemies colours. Ben and Tom were tougher opposition for him than worrall and Leon imo. Think might be pretty tight actually, would take 10 points 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should have been the PR agent for Nick Morris, Ritchie Worrall and Steve Boxall with that kind of confidence! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nickinho 433 Posted April 10 Providing it goes ahead I think this will be decided by the newbies in each team - Leon, Paul and James for Glasgow, Justin, Connor and Max for Edinburgh. The rest will no doubt perform as we expect so the onus will be on what the new guys will bring to the fixture. I think Glasgow by six at the end of the meeting.

Jaizer 2,879 Posted April 10 Should number 6 be unavailable I'd say hagon is the best of the not engaged riders. If we're given a 75% would be still qualify my maths isn't the best? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So if anything Edinburgh should perform better this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
