Remember when you were a teenager and wanted to go out with the best looking girl in the school, but she'd only go out with you if she could bring along her fat ugly mate?
Don't think the team is any worse, but it certainly hasn't improved.
In all the years since the Rockets returned to the PL Len Silver had only let one rider go to my knowledge, Kurt Shields. The only Aussie with a self confidence problem. The others have either retired, been injured or just given up.
What's happened to Cradley? A year ago this thread would've been swamped after a home win. Have they given up because they're no longer top dogs in the NL?
Morley is the better trapper, but tends to stick to the inside. Branford is the better rider in my opinion and uses the outside line to good effect. Let's hope the track has some grip on it
The kids a trier, but not PL class. You need at least one decent reserve if you're top heavy. No support at all for Kennett, Lambert & Jakobsen. They must be as frustrated as we are. I love watching Kasper ride, but his inability to gate is costing us valuable points, especially when the tracks dry and slick and passing is more difficult
I said we'd lose, but not by that much. Season can't end soon enough. I hope lessons have been learned re make up of the team for next year, especially at the lower end
