LagutaRacingFan Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Based upon? Common sense... Riding in the main body of the team is completely different to being at reserve. Anyone who thinks Wells will end up with a GSA of around 6.50 is extremely optimistic. Unless he misses tons of away meetings and the majority of his meetings are at home, It won't happen.

superguest Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) Care to let me know how he got on riding in the main body of the team last season? Not that well. Even Klindt/King/Kennett/Kildemand didn't reach a 7pt average . Ricky may well reach 5.and a bit but anymore will be a massive achievement.

BWitcher Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Superguest, you must keep up! Solely from his rides at no 4 last season Ricky Wells scored 76pts, 7 bpts,, from 49 rides.

BWitcher Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) You don't have to 'see it'. It's already happened. His lowest score at home was 6 from 4 rides (in his first meeting at no 4). His lowest away was 3 from 4 at Poole.

superguest Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Ricky was about all that worth cheering for last year, but It's a new year and the level has been raised. I hope/expect to see him average 5-6 points a meeting at number 4. I can't see why we,d put any more expectation on him? Still no home and away split then 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWitcher Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Home and away split isn't relevant as he is once again riding as a double upper, and the majority of his meetings will be at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 It would be great if Ricky was able to put onto his average. The evidence is that he could hit 6 from the main team and i see no reason why he won't improve a little on his starting average. With maybe a little more from Proctor we really need the big guns and the bottom 2 to make the bigger improvements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.N.T. Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Wells reaching a 6.50-7.00 average.....hahahaha. TNT is on another planet. Keep reading ................. Not that well. Even Klindt/King/Kennett/Kildemand didn't reach a 7pt average . Ricky may well reach 5.and a bit but anymore will be a massive achievement. Nicolai Klindt scored 80 from 60 rides for Wolves last season so he onl averaged 5.33 and the form he was in at the end of the season, sadly I cant see him doing any better this season at Kings Lynn Daniel King averaged 7.47 at Birmingham while Kildemand rode in 32 meetings for Swindon, scoring 269 points and 26 bonus points from 148 rides averaging 7.27 without bonus and 7.97 with bonus points. ....... Thats partly due to the 44 points scored in the play offs dont count on the averages. Ricky has proved he can average six plus from the main body and if you couldn't recognise thje difference in the rider that started 2012 and the rider that finished 2012 then you obviously were watching the wrong rider and getting him confused with Nicolai ? Common sense... Riding in the main body of the team is completely different to being at reserve.Anyone who thinks Wells will end up with a GSA of around 6.50 is extremely optimistic. Unless he misses tons of away meetings and the majority of his meetings are at home, It won't happen. Regarding the home / away ratio ..... Ricky rode in 12 meetings at Monmore Green and 12 meetings away (inc 2 guests) While riding at #4 he rode in 7 home and 6 away meetings (+ 1 guest away) and still averaged over six in these meetings In 2013 he is down to ride in ALL 14 league matches at Monmore but will miss roughly 4 away meetings due to clash of dates with Sheffield matches, so this season he could well ride in a bit more biased ratio ..... hence maybe 7.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 If Ricky averages 6 he will have done well, looks a stronger EL this year with better reserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he starts the season as he finished it he will be ok. However he did have the first half season at reserve to build up his confidence and he won't have the luxury of that this time.

Just illustrating that its possible as a naysayer seemed to find it laughable. Strangely they've gone quiet now though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.N.T. Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 All quiet on this Wolves thread probably because they have a safe and reliable 1-7 which may be good enough to reach the play offs as the team looks stronger than previous seasons at home where too many points have been dropped. This will be the key to Wolves season with 42 points available on home soil, they will need to get at least 37 from these 14 matches. Therefore I would NOT put the heat leaders at 1 and 5 but instead put them at 1 and 3 to obtain more heat advantages around Monmore as Fred and Tai both partner second strings leaving Adam Skornicki to hold down the #5 position to help out the young reserves if needed to at least get shared heats. Along with Adam having the job of looking after the reserves, I would also say he is the best option to have as team captain, letting Fred and Tai concentrate on their positions of winning races with Ty and Ricky pickin up points alongside them. Should Fred regain the #1 position, Ty would move back to #2 and Ricky to #4 1 - Tai Woffinden 2 - Ricky Wells 3 - Fredrik Lindgren 4 - Ty Proctor 5 - Adam Skornicki © 6 - Sam Masters 7 - Jacob Thorssell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRoundabout Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 I thought maybe Proctor and Wells may have been slotted in the line up somewhere TNT. Whilst appreciating there are 16 riders to fit in, but both probably need a run out at Monmore prior to the real business starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
