Cairns "high"average is partly a consequence of lawsons "lower" average,you couldn't have both on "good' averages,so lawson might be the better call for next yr

Absolutely spot on if both in the same team nothing gained by Lawson shutting off to let cairns through

Surely that’s nothing lost? Lawson gains because a lower average coupled with his ability makes him a more desirable rider.

Yes it is if they are both in the same  team, if not makes Lawson better value and cairns less value, so that begs the question why did Lawson do it?

To be honest I thought Lawson was poor at times last season, nothing to do with him letting Cairns win races. I think both their averages are accurate, not higher or lower than they should be.

Having the misfortune of knowing Cairns personally, I'd say perhaps attitude.

Get that, also he has had a massive teen growth spurt, which may hinder him on a speedway bike

I can think of 3 possible reasons:

1 Lawson knew Cairns wasn't going to be invited back so it worked for Poole

2 Lawson was just looking after himself and his average and it just happened to affect Cairns

3 He wasn't, Cairns was just beating him

It held Bewley back for one season whilst he adjusted. Could be the same for Cairns hence Poole letting him go?

He grew another helmet size this year towards the end, do him good to move on for experience

I raced in the same practices and amateur meetings when he was a couple years younger, 13/14 and he thought he was god's gift to man. Every rider had to wait their turn in the queue to go out but not Will, he thought he could just push to the front and go out when he wanted.

Riders like Luke Harrison, Max James and Freddy Hodder were also there and waited just like everyone else. Even the odd times the likes of Steve Worrall and Max Clegg turned up, they waited.

I used to hate it when you got to the front of the queue, adrenaline starting to pump, you get yourself all fired up and then 'Will's going out next, you're going to have to wait' proper makes you feel sick in your helmet. And all he ever did for the extra time he got on the track compared to everyone else was practice wheelies.

I know he was 'just a kid' at the time, but he's an adult now and doesn't seem to have matured at all, in fact his head seems bigger than ever. Perhaps he needs a couple of seasons at a small club to knock him down a peg or two.

Was a little rubbish in the pits too.
