For me at Workington.....
1= Craig Cook = best rider in the league an I expect pretty much the same for 2017, be great to have heat 13 & 15 covered. Probably our first out an out number 1 since Stoney.
2 = Mason Campton = just don't see what the promotion see in him to give him chance after chance. For me he thinks he's better than he actually is an I see no change. Another season around the 4/4.5 average wise.
3 = Ty Proctor = quite shocked he's included after last season events, but I'll take it, decent rider who should kick on, improve his average an challenge our top 2.
4 = Adam Roynon = had a steady 2016 with a few glimpses of the rider we all know he can be. I'm not sure he'll ever be a 8+ rider again but I think after a steady season last year he can put a point on his starting average.
5 = Thomas Jorgenson = great signing, rides our track really well and is also a racer. One to watch for next year an will improve his average.
6 = Matt Williamson = has improved every year and that will continue next year, can get out the gate well an Could replace campton in the main body.
7 = Rob Shuttleworth = must admit I know very little about rob. No pressure should be on him so let's hope he enjoys his racing, gain experience and improves throughout the season.
So I don't think it will be the comets best season but I don't think it will be our worste either. Should do well at home, I dare I say it.....pretty much the same away from home costing us a play off place.
Happy new year everyone and enjoy your speedway in 2017!
