What average would Jesse mustonen come in on? Scored same as Leon in GP qualifier and after success of vuolas at worky if was a 5 might be worth a gamble?

Good effort from Tom in gp qualifiers. 10 points and 5th place best of the rest. Could probably hand picked the qualifiers beforehand

Probably riding better than I've seen him, but he's still not much more than a reserve who'll struggle at most away tracks. I'd gladly see us bring in some new talent and prep them for next season/ attain real averages. There's no changes we can make that will make us challengers imo

Was going through some Aussie scores other day I saw another Killeen. Would that be a younger brother who'd also come in on a 2.00?

He's never going to be champ standard, I don't understand why you're promotion persevering with him. Worrall, B cook, Nichols? Availability with Poland etc going to be an issue I'd have thought

Apart from laughing, have to applaud young Dan T. What a transformation in a rider. Can't remember such a difference since worral load of rubbish went to Edinburgh on a 3 and doubled his average

Facility expired can only use guest up to 75% of average

Pmsl. Beat at home by a team with junior at no.1

Ah a suspended suspension lol

Hasn't wood had his licence suspended for 30 days?

Said it for years not sure he's really kicked on though. Scores well in the u24 league though. If was me I'd fancy the Norwegian pollestad, 19 plenty potential there.

The shortsightedness is absolutely bonkers. There is a shortage of riders available to championship clubs (ask Redcar/ Workington when looking for their last signings) but essentially every rider of a reasonable standard in Poland is a write off. Unless you're prepared to bring a couple in and let them get new averages and have a write off of a season. Not many would do what Peter Waite did with the the 3 Czechs on 9 point averages!

Didn't they change the rule because of the tarasenko situation that new poles are on a 7 or something? But we could sign a dane who hasn't ridden here but has in the extraliga on a 5 still. Can't remember exact wording of it but how was explained to me was Marcin who ride 3rd division last season would be a 7 but mads Hansen would be a 5. Sure some of the rulebook experts know the exact change but essentially meant that particular route would be closed

Said it would be nice wasn't a prediction

Aye fair point

Yeah most definitely. Jody Scott would prob be the best of 2 pointers if took a chance on one to have a stronger 1-5. 14 day extension of facility takes us to towards end of month so yeah might persevere until then

Riss, Rowe, Gilkes? Not sure on averages as assume will be converted prem averages and not their 2023 champ versions would come in on. Would they be available even with Poland? I think we have a gap in fixtures if ever was a chance this would be it I'd say

Where do we go now? Sign smith for the season and not have the strong reserve we were built to have or do a bit of a rebuild?

Especially with 4 newcomers. Good to see them proving so many of us wrong. If claus can avoid his mid/ late season dip in form could be genuine challenger's. Tomorrow be the acid test

Same again tomorrow be nice

While this looks good on paper he's usually getting 5 rides for his 9 points so averaging nearer 7, probably under taking into account his 3 points effort last week

Changes going to be hard this season, even with the slightly increasing team building limit at end of each month. Starkes obvious choice but I'd guess have to make 2 or 3 to make it worthwhile. Trying to take the philosophical view that we're taking a year off this year and just enjoy the racing. If anyone didn't enjoy that last night speedway's not the sport for you!

Wish he'd look closer to home, like giving stark 4 rides and the gate positions for super heat. Trying to deflect from a pretty poor performance is bad craic

Really not all that bothered about the result as the fans were definitely the winner with the level of racing. However, the riders need to stop coming out with this I'm going to go to next level crap. Worrall at start of season and flint yesterday. If you can't beat castagna and lasse round your home track then you're no going to any next level!

Changes nothing. We still need a miracle and win at armadale to progress. Was cracking race so not complaining too much! Not sure how effected the best 2nd if the most ridiculous should happen
