racers and royals

That`s last years rule in your 2nd line - we do not have the 2019 rules !!

2 H and 3 A i think

Did they not say that a rider cannot ride in the Premiership unless he has an Established average over 3. They must have changed the rule to allow a rider to do both leagues if his assessed average allows.

Coverage of final round live on the internet here https://www.australianspeedwaychampionships.com.au/live/ should be up and running around 8/8.15 AM tomorrow Saturday 12th January. Draw- courtesy of Lunchy speedway updates 1 Lidsey 2 J Holder 3 C Holder 4 Douglas 5 Sedgmen 6 Fricke 7 Masters 8 T Kurtz 9 B Cook 10 Z Cook 11 Keleher 12 Stewart 13 B Kurtz 14 Morris 15 Tungate 16 Thomson

Not really- any passes happened when riders hit a rut and went wide. Lets hope Kurri Kurri provides a better meeting.

Normally some further places become available in the qualifiers so i would think there is a good chance of the Aussies getting another place late on.

Jack Holder is no way better than Chris at the moment- maybe will be but not at present.

B final J Holder, C Holder, Masters, Lidsey A final Fricke, Tungate,Kurtz and winner of B final

Sedgemen looking really poor

Seem to be having a few problems with the coverage.

Crumpy is pure class- i just wish he could come over to Europe for the summer to work for BT on the GP`s and the Premiership.

I don`t normally say too many complimentary things about the Aussies, but fair play to MA for doing this and a great picture to boot

Now on

If anyone has a blank 16 rider 20 heat score chart- this should be the draw(from Albury Wodonga speedway facebook page) 1 Ben Cook 2 Zane Keleher 3 Kye Thomsom 4 Jordan Stewart 5 Rohan Tungate 6 Ryan Douglas 7 Jack Holder 8 Chris Holder 9 Nick Morris 10 Todd Kurtz 11 Brady Kurtz 12 Justin Sedgmen 13 Max Fricke 14 Zach Cook 15 Sam Masters 16 Jaimon Lidsey

The PZM are desperately trying to get another team out of Div 2 to join the Nice Polska league to replace the non- licence Rzeszow team.The clubs have until mid Jan to accept the invitation. Maybe Bydgoszcz will take the plunge under their new management.

Not strictly true - it’s more Daugavpils have not agreed to the Extraleague requirements which amongest others is Polish U21 riders at reserve.

If only they did Don`t they have Chris Holder scoring 14 today ?? and where have they posted the accumulated scores for the 2 rounds ??
