Scott Campos is the second name confirmed. Im surprised hes back.

Whats the fascination with Ostergaard?

Nobody complained about the rule when it was originally in force and it makes sense as the best riders in the top tier shouldnt make easy pickings on the second tier. The issue is it seemingly only affects Nicholls, but is it right having the calibre of Harris & Morris in the second tier? Surely theyre too good which in turn dilutes the Premiership as the top riders arent even unique to that league.

By choosing a number 7 this way they may not get the strongest as hell be snapped up. But theyll definitely get one willing to ride for the Scorpions and he will have plenty of EWR laps to hit the ground running.

Its not the reality as then hed join a Championship team and ride in only one league.

Storm meetings didnt get that many though and youd hope that with their being no Bees then those who didnt bother with the Storm meetings would go along. But Lakeside fans have proved that just simply still existing doesnt guarantee a fan base.

Excellent team! Theres a genuine number 1 who will win races everywhere plus 3 riders behind him who are all heat leaders. Add Stefan who is at home at the EWR and Manzares who is certainly better than a reserve and theres lots of scoring potential throughout the team. Plus all that on a Friday night when the racing has repeatedly been better than a Sunday teatime.

The rules say an NL average since 2011 if its higher than his converted Championship average. So Sarj wouldnt be that cheap, but of course the rules have a habit of being mislead. Just ask about Hall, Roynon or Hurry.

Kemp will top the averages of the 3.00s, then Edwards and then Flint 😉

Essentially the same side made the play-off final last year, so should be good for a top 4 spot this year.

Thats a good team. Always a useful reserve and a powerful top 2. However I think Hunter will be further south.

About the best 3.00 that you can get after Kemp & Edwards and its obvious where theyre going.

Surely these new starting rules will make life perfect for Sarj.

Scunny have retweeted Manzares tweet where hes looking for accommodation and a workshop in the Midlands! Of course, it could be another one of their red herrings.

If youre including Watt, then the Isle of Wight have 3 as well with him, Doyle & Holder.

Manzares as a number 6 would be awesome, especially considering theres no weak link to drop down.

Jacobs was looking for teams on Twitter only a couple of days ago, so unlikely to be him with Rob seemingly having a plan in place.

Marson and Bebee, at home, look capable of counteracting that though. Jenkins & Bickley got going very well in the top 5 at the end of the season, so Kemp could be the same.

Great team so far that look like they should challenge and an entertaining side to reap the benefits of moving back to a Friday night 👍🏻

Ridiculous if theyre forced to do that. There would be more clashes with Championship clubs on a Friday, than with Premiership clubs on a Monday. Regardless the fixed nights was to avoid clashes with the Championship, not top flight & NL. Like BV Colts should still be allowed to use Wednesdays.

The Warriors are joining the SDL 2018. Barry and co are brilliant with bringing on the young ones with My First Skid as well.

Youll get Edwards surely and alongside Kelsey thats a reserve pairing that should score bags of points.

Adam Portwood is the first name on the team sheet on a 3.83 average.

Its definitely something that the NL needs to look at during their AGM. But without co-operation from the Championship its hard to reach a viable conclusion.

Auty was inevitable but Allen is a decent signing.
