Nothing lasts forever, appreciate everything he did for us.

No way CC will be on a sign on deal, he'll be strictly paid per point if Edinburgh have any sense. Dont turn up, dont get paid.

Its a stunner though quite possibly keeping the position occupied until another move mid season. 

If they could get Wolbert back over might spur him on as remember those were some of Edinburghs best years.

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.

Because he knows he can get away with it and every time he plays that card he knows the plebs will feel sorry for him. There was only so many times the boy could cry wolf.

Im sure you’ve all been wondering where I’ve been and yes I know greatly missed you don’t all need to tell me. 
 

Anyway team shaping up nicely still to announce our number 1 and another 2nd string to finish the team off.

??? Both Kye Thomson and Craig Cook have higher averages than Bomber, so he wouldn't be number 1.

Of the 2026 Championship riders not yet announced only Leon Flint (likely Glasgow), Zach Cook (not doing Champ) or Nikolai Klindt would start at number 1.

Unless it's new to UK, or dropping down from Premiership on a converted average, then it looks like Klindt

The Only Combination that gives you a no1 and 2nd string is 

Jeppesen 8.24 & Jakobsen 3.78

Hausl 3.79 can’t see that happening 

1. Jonas Jeppesen 8.24

2. N Jakobsen 3.78 / 4.00 assessed rider

3. Craig Cook 8.18

4. Jonathan Grahn 5.63

5. Kye Thomson 8.23

6. Jordy Loftus 3.66

7. Ben Whalley 2.00

Total 39.72 / 39.94

Jordy qualifies for a 2.5% reduction

If that’s the team with either Jakobsen or assessed 4.00 rider that’s a pretty handy heatleader trio there 💪,and fair play to Edinburgh for trying something different.

Erik Riss?

Arguably as much of a gamble as Craig Cook, cost Oxford hugely last year

He would come in on a 7.57 as he rode last season in a couple of matches. 
divide that average by 1.5 and you get the average he starts at Ipswich on TTT.

So he wouldn’t be no1 gotta be higher than 8.23,and the 2nd string higher than 3.66.

Agreed its a double risk load up, Cook if he doesn't fancy it 3-4 meetings in and Eriks health issues if both ended up having to drop out at the same time your in a world of pain.

Compare Motorbikes

 

Stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
