Irrelevant what their reserves scored …. Missing a heat leader who was replaced by another sides number 7 is it that hard to see why they were weaker? So if next week Lewis Kerr is out and you replace him with Jack Smith or Ace Pijper you won’t be weaker then 

Their team manager weakened them!! 😆😆

Out of interest why were Oxford weakened when their reserves scored paid 19?

Read my post I clearly mention Fricke is like Adams  I state how good Adams was in the league but Crump better at world level I state that that’s similar to Fricke and Kurtz ….    Pretty obvious that I’m comparing Fricke to Adams and Kurtz to Crump I’ve just shown you my post  Im certain 99% of people can see what I was saying lol

Not necessarily, it just didn't help their cause. 

Correct! After the meeting Starke and Cairns were trying out different set-ups under the watchful eyes of Matt Ford and Richard Lawson  until the ref got impatient for the second half of upright races.
