lucifer sam Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 And so here we go - the first fixture in Group 2 of the play-offs. Scunny have Kevin Doolan and R/R to cover for David and the Tommy Gun. Last time, Scunny won 54-39, despite being without Nick Morris (who was riding for Australia in the Under-21 World Team Cup). Can the Scorpions sting the Monarchs again, or will the Monarchs strike back? All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzie4388 Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Have to admit my first thought was Missing TJ aswell as David, I cant see the Scorpions doing what they did last time. I had totally forgot that Nick didnt ride last time. I'm much more confident then i was. Come on the Scorpions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crescent girl Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Is there tac rides in the play offs??,this could be the difference between these teams Regular PL rules apply, so yes, b/w rides are allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotchopper Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 belle vue off so cookie didn't get his practise tonight but in better new joszef tabaka is back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTLAND1314 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 belle vue off so cookie didn't get his practise tonight but in better new joszef tabaka is back. Chops let's hope that Cookie and Wee Joe are 100% fit. If so you never know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Given the possibility that Cook & Tabaka will not be fully match fit, and Scunny will be tracking Morris and Doolan this time round, another away win appears to be the likely outcome.

DW Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Cant see Scunthorpe winning this again.Edinburgh are possibly favourites to win the group with their returning riders although I think they missed Tabaka more than Cook. Scunny outscored the home reserves 17-2 last time out, if Tabaka is fit he'll score more than that. Cook will add a few more than Grieves did but even a 15pt score last time wouldnt have won it for the home side. Cant see Doolan getting near Jorgensen's last total although Morris will outscore Wolbert. Birks and Palm Toft will have to repeat their previous scores to give them a chance.

I guess much will depend on the fitness of Cook and Takaba. Although even they are fit, I fancy Scunny to keep up their winning run and nick this.

Lewis Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Taken from the Edinburgh forum website.... EdinMonarchs Scotwaste Monarchs open their Play Off campaign against Scunthorpe at Armadale tonight. Afternoon showers have avoided track so all ok Hope it remains so, wanting a Scunthorpe win but most importantly all riders stay safe & the meeting is good. Prediction 44-46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WTF1 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) So frustrating for the promotion (I live) ten miles down the road and it's bone dry!! So is there any idea when restaging will be as with Edinburgh seemingly only running Friday nights this is going to cause big problems especially if next weeks is rained off as well.
