eide67 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Ist league match of the season, and against the current champions. Monarchs could really do with kicking off their home league season with a win, something they haven't done for a few years. Dayle Wood guests for Max James and Poole have replaced Academy rider Matt Marson with Darryl Ritchings. Teams from Edinburgh website: Friday 16th May: Edinburgh Monarchs v Poole Pirates (Championship), Armadale, 7:30pm STELLAR MONARCHS: Justin Sedgmen, Kye Thomson, Jonatan Grahn, Paco Castagna (Capt.), Oskar Polis, Victor Palovaara, Dayle Wood (Guest). WESSEX MARINE PIRATES: Richard Lawson, Tobias Thomsen, Anders Rowe, Zach Cook (Capt.), Lewis Kerr, Paul Starke, Darryl Ritchings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Could be close… monarchs look stronger in reserves but Poole heat leaders may cause havoc 😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur54 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 I see they have swapped Zach and Lewi again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanAndersen Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Could see the Pirates running riot tbh. Lawson is very strong at Armadale, Kerr too and with Rowe absolutely flying on Monday night he should score well. Even Starke has the odd good Armadale performance in him. I'd be thinking about changes already if Kye's form continues to be poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazc Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 7 rides for Victor should keep it close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickinho Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 If the Monarchs get past Workington in the KO cup then there will be EIGHT meetings between Edinburgh and Glasgow this season. That's really good for the fans methinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't surprised when he got hooked from his planned fourth ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 First 3 heats Pirates keeping up their form of being completely outgated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Kerr took three laps to pass Wood. Shocking stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 (edited) Only reason Poole are level is because Edinburgh had two EF’s when on clear 5-1’s. We are not at the races! Victor Palovaara is a great signing for Monarchs. Won his two heats so far by a literal mile. Edited May 16 by Steve Shovlar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Polis withdrawn. 21 point max incoming from Palovaara? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Should be easy for Poole now with Polis out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 OK enough. Kerr has to go. Enough already. Utter crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanAndersen Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Someone is going to have to tell me why Grahn came in for Polis and not Dale Wood there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
