Shaleshifter Posted Monday at 06:25 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 06:25 PM This coming Wednesday the Pirates take on the Comets for league points in the championship. After a disappointing display at the Gt Tyres arena and suffering a 12 point defeat they will be looking for revenge. Will the Comets be able to hold on to their advantage or will the Pirates hit them hard from the off. I expect Poole to come out all guns blazing and be looking to stop Workington from getting any further ahead. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTC Yes Pirates to win, but for me who wins the bonus point will be down to the attitude of the Poole team, hoping they come out of the gates fast and furious from heat 1. This season the Comets have great potential and could do far better than many predict. I think they are the 2025 dark horse. My other prediction is that this thread will soon become about the weather. Edited Tuesday at 07:55 AM by Bitza 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neila Posted Tuesday at 09:13 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:13 AM I'll pray for a little bit of moisture, then it will make the track more equal and comets may have a chance of a win and the bonus points 😝 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will that go into overriding and trying too hard? Better for him not think too much about it being at Poole imo. Although Hook not great at Poole in the past so Vinnie will need to get 5+ if Worky are going to get BP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hook has been better lately and I think Vinnie will score well with Starke struggling a bit lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have missed it! He beat Harrison and a very off form Lambert. Cairns was much more impressive. Another way to look at it, Starke beat Harrison, which Cairns couldn't do in heat 2. Starke then had a second place behind Steve Worrall. Starke then had the struggling Declan Kennedy taken out of a heat & lost to Zaine & Mountain. Starke then faced Mountain & tac sub Worrall! Who should Starke have beaten that he didn't? Worrall or Mountain (who Cairns didn't meet)? You wouldn't expect a 4 point away reserve to beat a 5 point home reserve (Zaine)! Now Cairns obviously came on string as the match went on, beating Zaine twice, which is brilliant for a 2 pointer, I take nothing away from him. But you can't deny Starke had harder rides & scored the same. That's not saying Cairns should have done better, just that Starke is being harshly judged imo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilali Posted Tuesday at 06:02 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 06:02 PM Probably a routine home win unless its too hot for the Poole riders on their way to the stadium then Worky might be in with a chance. ☀️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
