Clrnc Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 hi, i am new here. i don't understand the tactical play about throwing away a few heats and denmark stopping poland doing something. can anybody explain to me? and also, i missed the SWC08 final in vojens. Eurosports didn't show it as initially planned. did anybody cap the entire show? or does anybody knows where to download or watch it?

Trees Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 hi, i am new here. i don't understand the tactical play about throwing away a few heats and denmark stopping poland doing something. can anybody explain to me? The Danish riders were meant to keep the scoreline between them and Poland to under 6 points so the Poles couldn't put in a tactical rider (that is the rule, when a team is 6 or more points down on the team who is winning at the time they can nominate a rider to ride as a double point tactical substitute) who could would score double but they made a mistake and did so, but luckily for them Mr Gollob didn't manage to get the win. They had to make sure their placings in their races kept them under the 6. It's totally wrong really because you could end up with a farce of a race, speedway needs every rider to be giving 100% effort to win a race not riders tactically throttling off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clrnc Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 thanks trees! I didn't know the joker needs to be 6 points to be implemented. my country don't really show speedway, not a very popular sport here in singapore. thankfully i got the payperview. thats why i am a little unfamiliar with the rule. denmark did deserve to win though, but had it not been the early incidents of sweden and aussies, my favourite swedish team might have challenged. nobody knows how to watch a replay of the show?
