If Tom can't ride then surely RR is the best option 

All bar Emil can take a ride so imo better than any guest option

Agree. Especially with Dan at reserve who can clock up the rides. We know Dan rides Leicester well. 
 

What we can’t afford to do, is have Brennan strapped up and “giving it a go”. He’s our biggest threat in the middle order, and a struggling Brennan pottering around at the back struggling to hang on for a ride or two COULD ultimately cost us a league title. Every point will count here. 
 

He needs to be 100% or pretty damn close to it otherwise go with R/R.

We might not miss him that much if the others are on form.  Brennan does blow hot and cold.  Maybe overriding in Poland last night

Was a nasty one. Glad to see him at least walk away from it.

Exactly. Hopefully he’s ok and there’s nothing in it because we all want to see two full teams. But if he’s not quite there, go with R/R and give him a few days rest to hopefully be back fit on Thursday. 
 

I’m sure conversations will have taken place, and Louis will make the right decision.

Certainly wasn't 'overdoing it' but was unfortunate to pick up some unexpected grip coming out of turn two while leading. Was a real shame as he was riding splendidly up to that point and had beaten all three of Gorzow's GP men in their own back yard.

Agreed he was stepping his game up to compete with the Grand Prix riders.  As he matures he maybe needs to know when he can ease off the throttle a bit, especially with the modern bikes prone to lifting like that

Maybe but that had nothing to do with last night's crash, none of the GP boys were in that heat, he had made a good start and was in complete control of the race. Just a big slice of bad luck, it happens.

Hopefully something gets sorted there and quickly. A fine club Sheffield Wednesday.

Been badly run for 25+ years - disaster after disaster the only good times they had in that period was under Mandaric whose passing was annouced very recently. However I am convinced it will be sorted.

Tom still listed as riding so lets hope he is fit and we really want 14 club riders and no appearance from Mr Harris even tho i love him as a rider! May the best team win over 2 legs! My preference is for the Witches but my 2nd choise was the Lions so if they do prevail well done to them!

But he rode brilliantly for them at home in the cup final
