Not in the same ilk as Parker. definitely not. Joe is a brilliant rider, however at Ashfield he is invariably streets ahead of the opposition in ability and distance during a race. Nowt like the videos on YouTube where he is competing with a different class of opposition. Away from home, especially Armadale, he can be disappointing. Joe just blasts most opposition out of sight at Ashfield.
Parker would stalk his prey over 3 or 4 laps and it was edge of the seat stuff as he sat on another rider's tail pipe waiting for the right moment, he also 'mixed it' a bit more. So better all round entertainment value.
