This is a forum, I'm allowed to post my ideas!

This year they started 0.96 below the limit. Doesn't happen often for a team that wins the league.

I seem to remember a very similar situation/argument with Kerr this time last year, whereas in practise it turned out to be more a matter of form and mechanical reliability. 

Yes, I believe you are right about that. However it may be that Speedway is finished by then, unless something is done to improve things. 

Only problem with Gilkes is keeping him fit, which he doesn’t have a great track record at.

Agree there I feel Tobi done great for Poole but I feel Gilkes is a better rider and at no2 will be rock solid and could even change to no4 and Bowes go to number 2 I do feel Gilkes is a very shrewd signing just needs to stay out of trouble. if Zach and Cooper finish the team off I really like the riders in the number 2,4,6&7  positions much more excitement than the start of last year that’s for sure. And also a lot of potential in those 4 riders. Very happy Pirate fan
