SuzieQ Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 (edited) I would dearly love to see Team GB do it! There is no reason why they can't! With regards to the Aussies, guess that all depends on what Boycey does with the team, if he sticks with what he has been using or if he decides to bring Davey Watt in for the final! Think I shall go with the flow here and state that as long as the Danes don't win it and Team GB show a good strong force then that is OK! Ideal World it would be: Team GB Australia Poland Denmark edited due to serious blonde moment! Der! Edited July 20, 2007 by SuzieQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazeaway Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 (edited) let's see how your prima donnas get on with no home track advantage,the slightest bit of grip and Nikki and Hans will be playing the sore wrists card again!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah cos Nicki hates grippy tracks doesn't he.

Cougar Pirate Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Some interesting odds on the Final finishing order on Skybet http://www.skybet.com/skybet?action=GoEvEv&id=10860721 Seems the Bookies dont give us a cat in hells chance of finishing 3rd, let alone winning it !!

Steve Turner Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 The Danes are head and shoulders above every other speedway nation, but sadly that counts for very little at Leszno. Home advantage and the luck of the draw (because Blue has a ridiculous advantage in this series) means that Poland are favourites. I'd like Scott, Chris and Simon to have a good meeting (unlikely in the latter's case). I'd also like Walasek, Nicki P, Hans and Crump to do well...but the result itself means nothing to me...que sera, sera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguest Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Good luck to all the teams, not over fussed who wins as long as its good racing and everyone goes home in 1 piece. I will predict 1.Poland 2.Denmark 3.GB 4.Australia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chris26 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 well, in terms of consistency over the course of the season of the riders in each nation, then the result should be 1st. Australia - all have had a good year 2nd. GB - a consistent year for pretty much all of them 3rd. Denmark - Hans, Nicki, and Bjarne been consistent - Bjerre and Iversen up and down in terms of form 4th. Poland - so unpredictable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 And finaly - it is Nicki (and not Nikki), but to you it´s actuly Mr. Pedersen !!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I like it spelt Nikki cos it's nice and girly to match his hairdryer and I could think of a few other choice names rather than Nikki or Mr Pedersen I will make Race-off Spreadsheet/programme for the Final and put a link here on speedway-forum.co.uk <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There's normally a thread with it on can't think who does the sheets off hand though. 66/1 on GB winning <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hmmmmmmm Bomber to win Cardiff 25/1 and them in Cardiff laughed at me ...... 66/1 TEAM GB winning the SWC Sod if I lose I lose at the end of the day I've got to have faith in them else I wouldn't be a TEAM GB fan would I?

barrow boy Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Poland must start as favourites with them being at home so if any of the other teams do win then victory will be more deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topaz325 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Weather permitting ideal Speedway day tommorow, Workington v Glasgow then go home and watch the SWC. The heart says a win for team GB, but the brain says: 1.Denmark. 2.Poland. 3.Australia. 4.GB. Or............. could be completley different.

Subedei Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Home advantage and the luck of the draw (because Blue has a ridiculous advantage in this series) means that Poland are favourites. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That I can agree with. I just don't understand why it is allowed year on year. Surely it should be possible to create an equality of starting positions. Blue, as far as I can see, gets a huge advantage with the favourable gates throughout the meeting. I would dispute that Denmark are head and shoulders above the other nations. Nicki P and Andersen are top rate, but NKI, Bjerre and BP are hardly world beaters. I'd say there isn't that much between Australia and Denmark, other than Denmark having a greater depth of talent. But that doesn't matter with 5 man teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_support_no_team Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Schlein beat 1 opponent other than the russians last night so it's no surprise to see him replaced by Watt, but how good is Watt. I hear he's good but if he's that good why didn't he come in for Schlein for the race-off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Turner Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Dave Watt's been in the form of his life since returning from an early season injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
