Flint 6+1 from 5 is very poor when you look at who he beat.KJP got 7 from 4 and it’s probably his 1st visit.Its not going to plan yet for Tigers.Unbeaten in League at home though which is a bonus.

True. I may be wrong, but I believe Flint had a nightmare at Scunthorpe last season, so on a positive note, at least he’s contributing.

Changes need made. Stevie Wonder can see we’re winning nothing with this side; wholly unacceptable, given the Facenna’s investment and inevitable outlay on this side.

Bomber has had a few difficult meetings this season, thankfully Kyle, Leon and Kevin going well, Sam did well at 2 at Scunthorpe, hopefully when Mario gets back, he will kick on at reserve,  Freddie struggling, not sure we will make the play offs this year.

Apart from Poole it’s hard to call who the top 4 will be.IMO

Tbh, I think 8 Champ clubs could say the same thing, can't see past Poole for the treble!

Can't see what change any team could make to challenge them.

But changes could be sought to reach the play-offs?

So we built the best team again!! Who would have thought we could do that!

If Mario had the equipment he used in son2 he should be filling his boots at reserve.  They would have won at Scunny with a normal performance from bomber. Bomber has not been his usual self this season.

Cynics (not necessarily me) will probably say that, whist Glasgow are still winning, he can afford to, and by doing so, keeping his average down for 2027.

The main let down for this team has been Harris so far without a doubt. 
 

Pedersen probably hasnt lived up to the hype as much as people hoped and Hausl has been poor but they both came in on 5 point averages. The days of signing a Bjerre, a Bjarne, a Zagar, an Iversen etc to come in as unknown foreigners and average 9 in their first season are long gone sadly.

Most of Mario’s problems this year haven’t been equipment related its the fact he can only ride the track when it’s slick (would have been ok at Scunthorpe last night as that was ridiculously slick).  When he’s visiting every track for the first time he’s going to be always behind the 8 ball to start with.  If he takes on advise from the experienced riders in Bomber, Kyle and Leon every meeting be that home or away he could start getting into the points on a regular basis at reserve.

Was good to see Sam mixing it last night especially as used the inside to get past a few Scorpions rather than his customary outside line only approach.

I can’t work out the rolling averages as never know the score that’s getting replaced by the current meeting but it must be getting very close for Bomber to lose his number 1 race position

Pedersen has done fine in my opinion, got 7 from 4 rides last night at an away track, he isn't a Nagel but he has done ok. Mario should be better but his problem maybe mechanical and his equipment when riding for his country is obviously a lot better.
