Edinburgh 2027

[H20]

Only one thing going to happen here, he will let Ediburgh down massively just like he has done with every other team he has signed for the last few years. Get his sign on money do a few meetings then play the old mental health card again.

Need to be on the look out for a replacement come May 🙈

[Paddy The Rebel]

Surely if Edinburgh sign Wolbert will leave just over 7 for last rider,a different looking Edinburgh team but probably just what’s needed.

Said exactly the same about him last year…

[M.D]

Is this a case of cant find anybody else so will give him a go?

[mogmacrash]

He's a big risk, yes he can be brilliant but season end or even season break is possible at any time.

I do hope Craig has gotten through his issues because I want him to do well but I am getting deja vu from his start of season comments from the past few years. I've given up on caring after he's disappointed over and over again but for Edinburgh's sake I hope he sticks with it, still a great rider and would give Edinburgh a very strong top 2.

I hope Craig proves the doubters wrong.

He made all the other riders look daft at Ashfield when he visited this season. He’s incredible to watch when he’s on it.

Good to see Ben Whalley being given a chance.

First Kiwi to ride for the Monarchs since Ricky Wells?

Any rider can when they are on a rocket.

Do they never learn, thoughts with Edinburgh Speedway at this time.

Cook won`t see the season out.

It was a mixed performance from Cook that day. He was flying whilst out in front, but he lost both his races against Kyle Howarth and was on the wrong end of a 5-1 in a heat 15 decider

Depends how you look at it though !!

He was born in Auckland, New Zealand, so you could argue he's a Kiwi.  But, obviously, there are many riders born somewhere other than what they call themselves nationality wise - e.g. Jason Crump, Adam McKinna etc.

So who was the last real Kiwi to race for Edinburgh?       

Jack Millen?

[Tinker]

There's always an interview with Craig Cook in the Speedway Star every winter and he says the same things everytime. Been in the gym, feels really fit and rejuvenated. Raring to go and can't wait for the new season to start blah blah blah.

Great rider when he's on song but has let so many people down over the years and unfortunately, a leopard never changes its spots.

I'd loved to be proved wrong however.
