I do hope Craig has gotten through his issues because I want him to do well but I am getting deja vu from his start of season comments from the past few years. I've given up on caring after he's disappointed over and over again but for Edinburgh's sake I hope he sticks with it, still a great rider and would give Edinburgh a very strong top 2.

Victor coming in on that reduced average is the only reason he's been kept I would guess. I think Berwick were unlucky not to make the playoffs last season, they may have a chance to do it this time, Kemp has big shoes to fill, but if Battye improves further (which i think he will) and the new reserve scores a few more points than Smith did, they will be in the mix.

He's a big risk, yes he can be brilliant but season end or even season break is possible at any time.

Is this a case of cant find anybody else so will give him a go?

I still think Northampton need another big hitter. I'm not sure Musielak is an out and out number one. Its looking like a competetive side but with so many points up for grabs in heats 13 and 15 ...well you know what I mean.

Said exactly the same about him last year…
