Well I will start this as there doesn't seem to be any witches fans left.

Tonight at the Louisdome sees the visit from across the border of the sometimes mighty Monarchs.

 

Teams I think are

Ipswich

1 Lanham (so that will be nil point from him then) 2 North 3 Poole 4 Risager 5 Tungate 6 Tressarieu 7 Neilsen (G)

Edinburgh

1 Jorgy Worgy (G) 2 Sneddon 3 Weathers 4 pijper 5 Tully 6 Agent Campton (G) 7 Helfer

 

If agent Campton forgets his managers orders and rides ok I can see a win for the mighty blue and gold 43-47 to us

Problem with that is it will start the Ipswich ranters off again , they are almost as bad as Berwick fans :)

( you know who you are, don't be shy) :)

Witches lack of home meetings recently will help Edinburgh and both teams are simliar with lots of 6-7 point men but no outstanding heat leaders! Most races will be very even and tough to call, can see most of the riders having up and down nights. Last year the Witches beat the Monarchs 51-41 but both sides are a very different sides. Only Poole for the home team,Wethers and Tully for the the visitors return,

 

Lanham is back to the dreaded no1 race jacket, but Poole will benefit from being lower down the order. Tress at reserve will not be as strong as Risager was there and hopefully Nielsen can do well again. Tungate has been a bit off the pace lately and North will be on high after getting silver in under 21 wtc.

 

Jorgensen scored paid 10 for Scunthorpe this year, and Tully rides well at Foxhall. Sneddon, Pijper and Wethers can all pop out of the gate and get race wins Campton scored 3 but didnt beat a team mate after being stuck in traffic. Helfer is making his Ipswich debut.

 

Like i said, could go either way............. i'm perched on the fence! ;)

 

 

Ps Surely Edinburgh will do better than their Scottish cousins the Tigers!

Think this could be a good meeting and outcome will probably be more about which Witches turn up rather than the Monarchs . What should be a home win could easily end up as a big defeat !

 

That's the reason we are where we are in the table . Too many riders underperforming the whole season with the odd flash of what they are capable of !

 

Shame as on paper the Witches should be able to compete with anyone in this League !

 

Anyway , let's hope for some good racing with everyone staying safe , there's been far too many bad injuries everywhere this year !

Jorgy - very fast after a first heat last

Sneddon - quick from the start and good value

Wethers/Pjiper/Tully - hit and miss

Campton - a couple of lively heats

Helfer - should of stayed at home.

Jorgenson, what an effort

Looked good on his first visit to Foxhall and has improved each time I think.

A shame theres little chance of him being a Witch next year.

Don't know where "Bruv" was standing but my view.....

 

Jorgensen - Dodgy 1st heat, lucky in heat 11 that it got rerun as he was last in the 1st staging. Great choice of guest

Sneddon - Quick from the start, had a "few moments" when drifted wide, seemed to be in a bit of discomfort after fall when under pressure.

Wethers/Pjiper - Seemed to be glued together when they rode, bit like paralympics and when an athlete needed a guide!

Tully - hit and miss

Campton - a couple of good heats, better than last time good choice of guest

Helfer - should of stayed at home, did well to clear track in heat 4, can't "helf" but think that he is doing a Brit out of job.

 

Its not just him but the likes of him, Jakobsen, Dyer, Sitera, Glanz, James Holder, Ksiezak, Dilger and Mudgway all on sub 4.00 aves and could easily be replaced by NL rider.

I personally thought it was one of the better meetings at Foxhall this year, it was evedent both teams went out for the win right from the very first heat.

 

The Risager/Poole pairing probably needs looking at but otherwise the rest of the Witches all rode well.

 

Edinburgh surprised me to be honest, I said before the meeting we would get 55pts.

 

Ipswich will need to hit Edinburgh early tonight if we are to grab the all important away win and a chance of grabbing the final Play Off place.
