As Poole won by 9 in the home leg it would quite unusual to have a super heat as it would take a rider not finishing a race, not impossible but unlikely.
Not saying he isnt any good or not got potential, just seen it over and over again, riders thrown in at the deep end and struggle and then take a long time to get confidence back
I would drop Wright for a top rider. Not sure the RS system is working, it isn't a level playing field when riders like Boughen and Joe T are expected to compete against riders like Flint and Rowe.
I wouldn't drop Janowski on his new average but I am very biased! Difficult to drop Harris when you know what he can do when in play off mode, Wright could be dropped especially if they can convince a top rider to come over.
If Cook continues his form for Workington then he will be good for Oxford but Lewis was on fire prior to injury so it would be harsh to drop him, my opinion is that they will keep Cook and retain Lewis leaving them with a decision on who else to drop.
Well Scott has said for the last couple of seasons he doesn't want Premiership full time so I would imagine that is the reason, Scott is very good at Oxford, almost unbeatable at Championship level so will be a big miss. Cook has been terrific for Workington so a bit of a no-brainer if Scott is not available full time.
You seem to think he will stay beyond the 28 days he has signed up for, are you not expecting Lewis Kerr to return. I think it would be very harsh not to have Lewis back.
