Once eddie has served his purpose this season he will get slung on the scrapheap of pirates lobouts, he will find a very rusty king artur at the bottom of said heap

Poole will sling the yank if they can snook kennet in

Havvy makes sudden Sam look like Pete adams

Learn the game Lisa ffs

2 poor pirate performances on the spin, couldn't beat half a team last night and whooped by a bang out of form side tonight .

its a wierdly concocted team , all at the last minute so suppose you cant be too critical. 4 3rd heatleaders and a few others including thompson who has been the star really. you cant say the home matches arent close and competitive tho .

The track was good the few times I went last year . It's almost like it's being prepped on the cheap , sadly Oxford are paying for signing a brilliant rider with issues, Riss .

95% of teams are beat long before they arrive at poole. However you dress it up poole are more fiscally secure than other teams and can tempt the young improvers down most seasons . They are completely wasted in division 2 really .

20 plus point win for Poole

A horrific temp signing .

A moderate half season in 2021 at his specialist home track - 5 yrs up the road , good luck to him, he will need it .

Klindt just utterly hates the track

Klindt just cba with the track .

Tricky position but Newman seems too be getting his fair share of points in the n2 berth .

Zagar and batchelor in the same team is asking for bother

Ultimate top heavy side , the ritchings signing looks ok , cant see the other fella doing owt .

The ultimate lot of bald men fighting over a comb

Jordan poisoned Eastbourne , the wretch. Also the circumstances are now different too before. Lovely thought tho .

Hearty congratulations to the bears who deserve something from a good season that was ultimately nearly undone by injury's at pivotal times . Scott's concussion murdered them in the play off.

What a great meeting for the neutral

Onto leg 2 , the 3-4 battle will be huge I think . Pooles all round strength should be enough tbh .

It really is a bog awful track these days . The loram / Nicholls era literally seems a lifetime away .

The real winners are the injured but now ok fans and the medics and volunteers. Very difficult scenario and well done to both sides.

pooles riders all fit and firing, bottom end strength the factor .

thats not passing ffs, thats rider error from edwards
