Little concerned we have 5 fit riders, Bowes isn't 100% fit and I can't see Dan ever coming into the side this year regardless of the statement. It's a big injury to come back from. Shame we can't get Beau over, but we shall go for a local lad short term. 

His gating on Saturday wasn't great (the final aside), but if he can get that sorted then he'll fly at home. Saw enough to see he should be a very good #4. Just need to see how Mario fares. Decent team though.

Bowes next as he's been to Bournemouth this weekend but can't find any dummies big enuf 😜😂

Bit of both really. True whichever way you look at it 😁..

Nice idea in an ideal world, but hopelessly impracticable. I agree with Steve Park (!!!!) that such a competition would mean the lower-order riders (who might need it most) would be deprived of early-season action under racing conditions. However, what rules the idea out in this day and age is that none of the clubs could afford it!  Paying your top earners for three away meetings out of the takings from just one home 'gate' would be an impossible financial burden.  

Basso and Bangs would have been good at Northampton. At least the stadium isnt due to be demolished or the landlords wanting to evict. These days, that's a major advantage
