Also, Doyle's average is wrong... Its on the British speedway website as 7.91, but they have somehow missed a meeting as he should be 7.59. Makes little difference of course if it is a significantly lower limit for team building.

No one made a big deal of it, but it was great to see Chris Louis takes his medal off and put it around Ellis' neck - A really classy move 💫

Good to see Doyle has been moved back to number 5

Am I right in thinking the cut-off for averages is 23rd of each month? If so, looks like Ellis and Dan T swap, so the latter is back at reserve for the Play off final

Also, I have a feeling this will mean that Dan T and Ellis swap again... Am I right in thinking that the Sheffield fixture will adjust the averages, but the playoff don't?

So Emil will be done with playoffs in Poland then

There are lots of differing opinions about Ipswich's loss last night, but the key thing for me is that they currently have no momentum and some riders look out of sorts. They really will need to do everything they can to keep it as close as possible, because BV's top 3 will be flying, so that's 30+ points in the bag already - If Cook is on it too then suddenly it's a mountain to climb. Should be a great couple of legs for the neutrals 🤪

Leicester to hit 60+

I think Ipswich will take this with a little to spare... Could be the last match for Edwards, I'm assuming Jenkins will come back in, anyone know any more on this? Was also checking earlier and it looks like Emil will be at number 1 for the playoffs

I think this will be tight... I'm amazed at Becker's recovery, but like others have said, this meeting might be too soon for him to score the points that R/R has been getting in his absence.

Can only see an away win here

It clearly wasn't working as the team was, so makes sense to throw the dice and make a couple of changes

Sheffield could try and tempt Robert Lambert over for the remainder of the season, but would have to lose Rowe and Kerr for it to be possible... Gilkes would fit. Although that would push Flint into the main body of the team, leaving Sedgmen and Gilkes at reserve. It would be a big gamble and would leave the Tigers with 4 very big hitters at home, but perhaps too long of a tail away from Owlerton.

I wonder if we will see an appearance from Demi-Blu Harris or some form of acknowledgment to celebrate her impressive achievement this past weekend - Would be a nice touch

I think that's a fair comment. If those 4 are on it, then the bonus point is a real possibility. Expect Kurtz to have 6 rides and rack up plenty of points, but Doyle will be up for this too... he won't like the idea of someone coming to his track and out scoring him

Just basing it on the team declarations on the British speedway website… so perhaps Brum will re-declare at some point and bring Edwards back in.

Let him go when he got injured and brought Hagon in

Jenkins out with a knee injury

Must admit that I thought the massive favourites comment was amusing... BV favourites for me. Doyle and Emil have had the beating of Bewley and Kurtz in previous seasons, but will struggle to get any over them this year at NSS

Yeah, I couldn’t have got that more wrong!

Tigers to win on the night and I've got a feeling their top 3 might inspire them to claw back the deficit and see them through... just

Brummies over 8 points under the limit... sad times indeed

This is the quirk of how the Stars are built this year, they could spring a surprise, especially with morale high after monday night... that said, it will take a monumental effort to beat the Tigers on their own patch, even without Pickering.

Masters a good choice on current form.

I think 50-40 is a good shout, I'd go along with that.
