Speedway: Josh Grajczonek confirmed as Pirates' first 2014 signing

 

2611309.jpg?type=articleLandscapeFIRST SIGNING: Josh Grajczonek

PIRATES chief Matt Ford believes the signing of “star of the future” Josh Grajczonek will make his club the envy of the Elite League.

Ford suggested that all of Poole’s rivals would have loved to have snapped up the Australian after he had put the finishing touches to Grajczonek’s 2014 contract.

The emerging talent became the first name on Pirates’ team-sheet after being rewarded with a place following his excellent contribution to the club’s title triumph.

Grajczonek took centre stage as Pirates stormed to grand-final glory last term on the back of the Aussie’s 38 paid 43-point haul from a mammoth 26 play-off heats.

The 23-year-old, who scored 95+11 in 13 meetings for Poole, will start the season as a full club asset following his switch from Glasgow and on a 4.48 average.

Interesting rule change(?) referred to in the JG statement - that as a full asset his Poole EL fixtures will take precedence over any PL doubling-up fixture clashes!! :t:

Not really. If he hasn't signed for any team in the PL for next year, he will ride for Poole and they will have precedent over his second contract. Up to his second team to change the fixtures to stop any clashes.

So first signing down, how about this team?....

1.Ward 9.07

2.Josh 4.48

3.Magic 6.95

4.Howarth 4.28

5.Prem Pawlicki 7.09

31.87

Now that the Leicester/KK deal seems dead in the water, how about

1. Ward 9.07

2. Gracjzonek 4.48

3. KK 7.97

4. Howarth 4.28

Sub total 25.80 (leaving 6.20)

5. Pick one of THJ 5.89; Hougaard 6.19; Skornicki 6.14; Zengota 6.15 (or as a real outsider - Darcy's mate Morris 5.90)?
