Already shooting ourselves in the foot ahead of the 2023 season and it's not even the 1st of January yet.
-
?
-
Yes 42.50 I wouldn't be surprised if that happened tbh.
-
Speakes volumes doesn't it.
-
Apparently we're getting an announcement about the management structure tonight so I wouldn't rule that out. I agree it really is a long shot but maybe nobody else wants Batchelor to a point where the rider and Buster are desperate so they've got no choice but to bury the hatchet to help each other out?
-
That's why I don't want him tbh. All depends on what side of the bed he wakes up on every week. He's got the talent but it's irrelevant if the mindset isn't right. Could turn up and score anywhere between 8 or 2.
-
He does tbh. Think Hans only has a year or two left in him riding as a reserve tbh. Just a case of what frame of mind Cookie's in.

Based off Pickering's interview a few weeks ago where he was talking like he's staying and so are the majority of the 2022 side. 1. Richard Lawson 7.71 2. Josh Pickering 6.14 3. Peter Kildemand 6.67 or 7.10 (He fits either way) 4. Thomas Jorgensen 6.35 or Richie Worrall 6.31 5. Nicolai Klindt 7.39 6. Fredrik Jakobsen 5.04 7. Jason Edwards or Jack Thomas 2.50
-
All for Troy Batchelor as our No.2. He's got his average riding as a HL so I can easily see some value on his starting GSA. Troy can put a point on that imo. Rob Lyon also gets the best out of riders. Look at the 2021 and look at Harris this year for examples of that. I'd much rather have Hans Andersen at No.6 than Craig Cook though. I think Hans is better around Peterborough as well as the small tracks like Ipswich & Wolves and I think he'll score good points around Leicester too as a reserve.
-
Problem you've got is Doyle's average. You'll need a team of riders around the 5.50 - 6.50 range to back him up and that's with Hume at No.7
-
Batchelor would be a good signing for anyone on that average because he'll slot in at No.2 next season rather than riding as a No.5 which will lead to his race programme being much easier every night next season. Batchelor done a good job for Ipswich this season to only take 0.10 off his average considering he was riding at No.5 almost every week and having to face the oppositions No.1 three times a night due to King letting the side down most weeks. Riding in Heat 8's is a whole different ball game to riding in Heats 13 and 15 most weeks.
-
Five 2022 team members should be a lock for 2023 Fill in the blanks. 1. Jason Doyle 2. Troy Batchelor 3. 4. Erik Riss 5. Danny King 6. 7. Danyon Hume
-
If he's committed, then yes.
-
Far too injury prone for my liking. I just build my teams on who I think could race in Britain where only certain clubs would be interested in signing the rider in question.
-
Leicester will snap him up if he's not at Wolves for sure.
-
Carl Johnson on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire between 7-10pm
-
It's British Speedway (Nothing makes sense lol)
-
Get rid of both reserves as they were the only mistakes imo. 1. Sam Masters 8.00 2. Steve Worrall 6.13 3. Nick Morris 6.48 4. Ryan Douglas 6.31 5. Luke Becker 7.11 6. Ben Cook 4.00 7. Jonas Knudsen 4.00
-
That's what I thought but it shows 6.67 on GBSpeedway 2022 Averages page. Scroll to the bottom of the page Averages - gbspeedway.com
-
1. Dan Bewley 8.91 / Max Fricke 8.55 2. Jaimon Lidsey 5.16 3. Matej Zagar 7.20 4. Norick Blodorn 5.45 5. Brady Kurtz 8.24 6. Tom Brennan 4.28 7. Connor Bailey 2.50
-
Any takers for this team? 1. Niels Kristian Iversen 7.59 2. Peter Kildemand 6.67 3. Michael Palm Toft 6.86 4. Benjamin Basso 6.81 5. Rory Schlein 6.96 6. Hans Andersen 4.93 or Craig Cook 4.92 7. Jordan Jenkins 2.50
-
Where is Max Fricke going? Assuming BV are going with the following Bewley, Kurtz, Zagar, Wright, Lidsey, Blodorn & Brennan
-
I have been questionable as to where we could get HL's from for a few weeks now tbh. I still don't think we'll get him, It just doesn't make sense to me how someone would move to the other side of the world and then backtrack with immediate effect. Moving from the UK to Aus had to be a fully committed decision and not a half hearted one that he wasn't really sold on from the get go. With Crump he was never committed from the start imo, He only signed for Ipswich to make a few quid when he was over here supporting Seth, I remember listening to a podcast where Jason said he lost the passionate for racing years ago.
-
Sould do considering he's a former British Champ.
-
True.
