Should be a comfortable win for the Witches but closer than their first encounter. Live on BSN.

Just 0.09 between Adam and Dan in the rolling averages

If desired it is very much in the clubs hands to choose who is at reserve for September

They would (or should) know what scores will be dropping out of the 20 meeting sample for each rider and therefore the swing required in the upcoming matches for a switch to happen

We know it is done - Leicester did exactly that to keep RR for Becker in the 2nd position therefore allowing Fricke to still take an extra ride

Would we be stronger with Thompson or Ellis at reserve.

I think it’s an absolute toss up at the moment.

Same with Jason and Emil.

Can therefore decide who is at number 1 and who is at reserve for the play offs.

I’d tend to agree. I think at foxhall Ellis is far stronger than his poor away outings. He tends to throw it on the outside at Foxhall more than anywhere else if he is behind.

Absolutely does and it really suits his style. The higher banking work done during the winter especially around bends 3 and 4, has become more and more evident as the season has gone on. Ellis has made up huge ground on those in front of him by taking that outside route.

Tungate with Ekstraliga meeting tomorrow but missing today will be banned for withholding services, right?

I’m beyond devastated to learn that Rohan won’t be at foxhall tonight. 
I do hope he makes a full recovery from his shoulder injury in time for his polish fixture

According to the Ipswich post it's r/r for Tungate, McDiarmind for Palovaara.

But Palovaara has a higher average than Tungate, why not use r/r for him, gives Lawson an extra ride?

Maybe because Palovaara is on a converted average...

I don't think that has anything to do with it. It is more likely that Peter Schroek is the Oxford TM!
