What for?

Similar story in every Lambert race tonight. Can’t get out the gate and then held up by his team mate who nearly did a similar thing to Lambert on the previous lap. Lambert should be excluded but it’s still a little harsh on him as he’s rode his socks off tonight for little return in the end.

I thought the same. He has been their best rider by a country mile.

He’s a habit of doing that wherever he goes!

What a race. Shame Lambert was blocked by his team mate as he looks super quick tonight!

Very and Rybnik really need him firing, seen as they don’t fancy Batchelor one little bit it seems!

What has happened to Pawlicki? He used to be really entertaining and super quick but he looks a shadow of his former self. Good race in heat 5 though! Lambert could be busy tonight - looked super quick then chasing down Laguta.

More about making a statement then than for tactical purposes. They seem to work in weird and mysterious ways in Polish team management!

Interesting that Leszno appear to have replaced Brady Kurtz with Jaimon Lidsey on Friday. Why would they not just keep Lidsey at no.8 and use him to replace Kurtz's rides? Or based on last night's showing, use Kubera to replace Kurtz.

Ride of the season that from Janowski. What an absolute belter of a ride that was to round things off. Cracker in heat 14 too.

Been another decent meeting this. I really thought Wroclaw would of pushed Leszno harder than they have. Fricke has been a let down for them and with Bewley also pointless it’s going to be tricky. Nevertheless, another really enjoyable meeting.

Really? Couldn't see too much wrong in that at all!

Really enjoyable match that. Hampel rolling back the years somewhat! I like the look of this Lublin team if Laguta can carry on that form too. Gorzow pretty poor. They need Iversen back and quickly.

Superb from Laguta and Miesac. What a little rider he looks having never seen ride before. Kasprzak as petulant as ever.

Even worse than last week, can’t get out the start and this week appears to be going backwards after that.

Zagar finally comes to the party. Decent ride that.

25% of stadium capacity is now allowed in Poland apparently. Great ride by Lampart. Not overly quick but one thing you get with the Poles is that they aren’t scared to throw the bike about and get in the way if they need to.

Most tracks in this country would only dream of a crowd of 2,000 people!

Batchelor declared in Rybnik’s team then.... interesting!

Well I thoroughly enjoyed that again. I thought it would of been abit closer than the score line ended up but Pedersen wasn’t quite on it and Pawlicki and Buckowzski (however you spell it) were both very poor - what has happened to those two? Or just a poor day at the office? Laguta absolute mustard aswell, shame he had no back up. Looking forward to Friday already, especially with a crowd of sorts in. Starting to become hooked on Polish Speedway even after just round 1! Heat 14 out of the top drawer!

Am I right in saying you can use as many tactical subs as you want, but only one per rider?

Awful team management so far. Can’t believe they have left it so late to make any changes.

I'm with Emilali on this one - this is why National League speedway has never appealed to me. You could see 10 passes in one race but it wouldn't even scratch the surface of watching the Poles and co giving it absolute full chat on a big open race track.

I think I’m right in saying that Miedzinski had a racesuit and bike covers all made up too, so essentially making him part of Rybnik’s squad I suppose as a ‘double upper’ using British terms? As oppose to just a ‘guest’. Maybe they just fancied him more than Batchelor. Bizarre choice after giving him 2 rides only.

Any news on what happened to Batchelor yesterday?
