Well i think certain riders rode alot better in the race off, Fricke and Doyle were much better, it took them longer to get their set ups right it seemed. They are definitely better than Denmark and may just edge us for second spot
If the track is the same tonight Australia have a massive advantage, they seemed to struggle in the first match but rode much better in the race off albeit against lesser opposition. Poland should win but Australia second favourites in my opinion.
Find it a bit strange Brady Kurtz isnt in the Australian team. You would normally think he would have been chosen over Lidsey but you cant do that now so i would think dropping Fricke maybe have been an option.
All riders lose to riders they shouldnt now and again, maybe your expectations are too high, he will have bad meetings but he is the third heatleader a tough position in the team.
