Lanzilla Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 (edited) We know that Sweden, Australia, Poland and the Czech Republic are contesting the play offs on Thursday, so who do we think will go through? The obvious choices would be Sweden and Australia, but i think the Aussies will struggle with Shields in the Team. I'd go with Schlein if it was up to me. I wouldn't under estimate the Czechs either as both the Drymls go well at Poole as did Bo Brhel on his last visit. Track should suit the Poles as well. It's gonna be a cracker!!

KevH Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 but i think the Aussies will struggle with Shields in the Team. I'd go with Schlein if it was up to me. Travis McGowan should be considered too - his form has been a revelation of late! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenn Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 The obvious choices would be Sweden and Australia, but i think the Aussies will struggle with Shields in the Team. I'd go with Schlein if it was up to me. We were talking about this last night........They should give Rory a go! If i remember rightly he has done OK at Poole for the Aces and Im sure he'd be REALLY up for it! I dont think Neil Street will take the risk (yes its a risk.......but if it comes off it will in a big way) though Rory is in HOT form at the moment and i feel he could probably do a very good job for the Aussies!

scottymelloty Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Anybody know what the colours of the teams will be for the race off so i can get my programme ready Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leliwa Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Well, my prediction is that Sweden is gonna win it tomorrow, with Aussies second, but hopefully after some fight from Poles. I do expect Poles to put more fight than in Eastbourne, and Poole track better suits most of them. But at the end I do not think they will make it to the finals. That doesn’t mean that I’m not going to cheer for them. All things consider, we going to have a hell of the match on Thursday, cannot wait.

Bart Simpson Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Anybody know what the colours of the teams will be for the race off so i can get my programme ready I also would like to know the helmet colours so if anyone knows can they say please i checked www.speedwayworld.tv but that was no help.

Addy Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Who would make way for Rooboy then - not Johno Sullivan I reckon. Trouble is if Kenneth and Rory ride in the same races in the final - they might accidently find themselves team-riding -which they do so well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century heathen Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 But at the end I do not think they will make it to the finals. Don't give up hope til the end. I think the Poles are a serious threat to the Aussies. The Poles will go much better, and the Czechs will take points off the more favoured riders. If the Poles can get a Czech between them and the Aussies, particularly the bottom two, then they will go very close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Bee Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Anybody know what the colours of the teams will be for the race off so i can get my programme ready I take it nobody knows the helmet colours yet?

Bud White Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Going by the order the Poole website is displaying them, I would guess at: Red - Sweden Blue - Australia White - Poland Yellow - Czech Rep But don't quote me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Who would make way for Rooboy then - not Johno Sullivan I reckon. I'm sure you must be missing a big smiley emoticon there. Drop Poole's highest averaged rider for a meeting round his recently adopted home track ?? If Sheilds struggles as badly as has been suggested around Poole, then I'd be tempted to bring in Boyce or Schlein - a big ask for either rider, but a challenge I'm sure both would relish. They could always go for Lyons I suppose - plenty of experience on that track this year Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritPete Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 (edited) No chance of Sully being dropped, if changes are made then it would have to be Shields, he NEVER scores well here in the league, let alone a world cup match!

Lanzilla Posted August 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Could you imagine Jason Lyons coming in for Shields and scoring a max??? I don't think he'd get out alive... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
