Paco, Kye, Grahn leaves 3.74 ish, and I don’t see anyone available that’s worth it, do they go for Paco, Kye, Wood which leaves 6.8 but yet again, no one’s jumping out apart from possibly Joe Thompson?

Like you say not many options close to 3.74, Adam Roynon? Connor Coles? Mitchell Cluff?

If Monarchs went for a lower 3 pointer, could go with Palovaara instead of Castagna?

Tigers fans have already decided that they've won the treble with a weaker side than last season so there's no point in the Monarchs even entering a team this year. What say you Edinburgh fans? 

Heard plenty saying it is a good side and should be up there.

Not only Glasgow fans saying this.

I haven’t seen one saying we will win the treble have you or did you just make that up.

You really are a troll, not 1 Glasgow fan has said we will win the treble

Ask it every year but what would Wolbert come in on?

A flight from Munich?

He has a 9 year old established match average of 8.00, but seeing as he would come in at 6.00 if treated as a new rider there could be an application for a reduction. So in summary you'd guess is as good as mine.

How about bringing back a couple of former Monarchs?

Dan Thompson - 8.50

Justin Sedgmen - 7.34

Kye Thomson - 5.93

Lasse Fredriksen - 5.49

Jonatan Grahn - 5.30

Cameron Heeps - 4.93

Jordy Loftus - 2.14

Total - 39.63

I’d give up building teams unless you want us to finish last.

I don't know why you'd think that, great number one, potentially the strongest reserve in the league, 5 riders who can realistically up their averages.

Who would you swap out to be stronger then?

Heeps on the decline, Lasse ain’t getting any better, Grahn averaged that from basically being at reserve all year, you’ve now got him in the main body where he’d do well to maintain it. Sedgy ain’t going to get much better but solid, So leaves you Jordy and kye to improve and Dan a little from by number 1. 
 

So I’d swap out over half.

How about

Dan Thompson

Justin Sedgemen

Erik Riss

Paco Castagne

Johnaton Grahan

Dayle Wood

Jordy Loftus

This totals 39.88

I am sure that I read somewhere that there would be a surprise so perhaps it is Erik which

leaves out Kye. I just feel that Dan and Justin need another strong heat leader to give us the top end strength. I just put in Dayle who would be perfectly acceptable to me although the young Aussie Whalley has been mentioned. Possibly a bit early for him but may fit in the NDL team.

That’s a great team tbf but Kye will be back. I’d love to see Erik back in blue and gold at some point though.
