Also, to answer your question, it probably wouldn’t get beat at home all season👍😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batchelor is a No.5 so I think he would do well there but 3 heat leaders are needed in my opinion rather than strong reserves. As we seen last year.

Batch with a better no.1 would be my preference. I think there's better options out there than DT. I also wouldn't take Etheridge back. He was very good at northside but I dont feel like he was solid overall. My choice would be Kildemand Zischke Hook Pedersen Batch Foord Reserve rider. Not sure what that leaves us. If it leaves us a generous amount then I'd swap hook to reserve Edited Tuesday at 12:39 PM by Woke23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it leaves us a generous amount then I'd swap hook to reserve Jacob Hook was excellent last year. He’s put over a point on his average which is obviously impressive. Looking at it from a different point of view, that average has been somewhat ‘overinflated’ by winning Heat 2 most of the time. I don’t think Hook is very useful in the main body of the team, it’s a tough one. I would only have Zischke back, purely due to the fact that his average can most definitely be improved on. Foord for me doesn’t show any signs of improvement, especially away from home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Hooky done well at reserve and a good team man but there are question marks about further improvement if in the main body I feel. Agree about Tate who unfortunately has suffered concussion in Oz. Vinnie is a young lad who seems really keen to improve and is a racer. On good machinery I believe he is worthy of a team place next season Edited Tuesday at 04:08 PM by SteelShoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marksman Posted Tuesday at 06:14 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 06:14 PM As long as Simon Lambert isn’t one of them we will be fine 😂 I see he says he has a new contract signed and looking forward to a new challenge. Wonder where… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
