flyin rocket Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 somewhat suprised that Barker kept his place ahead of unsteady... Please he did though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie B Posted July 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) Surprised there's no Ryan Sullivan for Australia, especially the way he's riding at the moment. Should be a cracking meeting. It's going too be tough for any team to get into the top two placings. Go Great Britain. second place will do me.

Cornishman Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 somewhat suprised that Barker kept his place ahead of unsteady... Please he did though! Why? 6 out of 9 isn't exactly bad on your debut! Sorry if I've missed an explanation somewhere but why no Artem if his brother is ok to ride?...

It's going too be tough for any team to get into the top two placings. Go Great Britain. second place will do me. Apparently there is or has been bad blood between Ryan and at the very least Craig Boyce ........ tbh with one eye on trying to create a future winning team i'm not sure i'd put him in either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Why? 6 out of 9 isn't exactly bad on your debut! Sorry if I've missed an explanation somewhere but why no Artem if his brother is ok to ride?... 6 from 9 wasn't great considering his first race finished with 2 riders. His second ride picked up a point because Lukas fell & was excluded from the re-run and in his last gets a win because the Pole Kolodziej couldn't be bothered and Darkin retired. So all in all the easiest 6 out of 9 he'll ever get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirateandi Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Sweden imo could nick this one Brits have nothing to lose and watch out for Jonsson watched him ride there a couple of weeks ago and was nigh on unbeatable cracking meeting ahead fingers crossed with no quarter given hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 somewhat suprised that Barker kept his place ahead of unsteady... Please he did though! Why? Whats Stead done to warrant a place? At least Barker has about 6 or 7 years before he's Steads age by which time he may be a SWC regular. Look at what the Danes did when Stekkers took over, dumped the old guard and brought in the kids - they went on to be a bloody good force for a few years - still are. They'll probably need to rebuild soon though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at what the Danes did when Stekkers took over, dumped the old guard and brought in the kids - they went on to be a bloody good force for a few years - still are. They'll probably need to rebuild soon though. What is the point with brining in the kids and then dropping them a few years later to, er, bring in the kids? Steady has a proven track record in SWC and would certainly show a lot more nous than immature hot-heads like Barker and Woffinden (the lattter being such a true Brit that he has an Australian flag tattoed on his back!!).

ImpartialOne Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Woffinden (being such a true Brit that he has an Australian flag tattoed on his back!!). That's it then. He can't possibly ride for Britain. Just be grateful he's on our side. We'd be stuffed without him and that's a fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmite Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Why is Emil riding? If he could not be arsed on Monday, why should he be allowed to ride tonight? Plus, it means we have to put up with Pearson creaming himself over him all night... will be bad enough he does it with Ward and Holder.

Paulco Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Is there any other Australians or poles we can get in our team please,if the poles can have Holta anythings possible. Nick Morris has dual nationality . Possibly a couple of years away from World Cup level , but he'd be worth persuading Blighty is the better option .

Good call lets face it we need all the help we can get, and I am sure the Aussies won't mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Jasper Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 I honestly think we will struggle to win a race tonight. The team need to look at it as a learning exercise, keep their eyes and ears open, watch what the top boys are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpartialOne Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Nick Morris has dual nationality . Possibly a couple of years away from World Cup level , but he'd be worth persuading Blighty is the better option . Any Aussie (or any nationality) who comes over here using British patriality should only be allowed to do so if they sign an agreement to stick to it and race for Britain should they get that far. not saying Morris did, he may have but Cameron Heeps for instance is using it to his advantage so if it's good enough to provide a training ground for them it's good enough when they make it.
