Josh is clearly the better rider and deserves his place, rohan was quite inconsistant.

Don't let facts get in the way of your opinion - Rohan finished on a higher average gained from riding in the top 5 whereas Josh's lesser average was gained from the reserve berth. Of course Josh is clearly the better rider :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Thats not the bit you got wrong! Iversen has a higher average than Ward, averages can be misleading

Only in Poole!!

 

Iversen IS a better rider than Ward - as proved by his world ranking!!

And the excuses have already started.

We all know facts get in the way of Poole fans arguments and discussions!

They just choose to ignore them mostly :rofl:

you actually believe NKI is a better rider than Ward? NKI is a great rider but will never be WC IMO. Most can see Ward as having the ability for several titles in his time.

 

We'll see where they are at the end of this season. I would happily put a tenner on Ward finishing the GP series higher up than NKI if they both have injury free seasons.

Steve, if they both stay sound this season , these know all's will be eating the Alphabet come October..

Something wrong with discussing it now?

 

The facts show that Iversen is currently the better rider!

 

I suppose even you couldn't argue to the contrary but I'm sure you will give it a go!

The fact that Darcy spent 6-7 weeks on the sidelines has made the difference. If they both stay sound you will be eating the Alphabet not words come October pal.. Darcy is different class..

Hmmm, based on what I've seen I'd have to say Ward is the most naturally talented rider I've seen in my lifetime. What he does on a bike sometimes, well, I'd describe it as witchcraft! One of his heats at Poole this year he went under someone, who to us (stood on the exit if bend 2) was covering the inside line, and I kid you not we thought he had gone up the back of him, de materialised and re materialised in front of him. It really was amazing to watch.

I am a massive Ward fan the best talent i have seen since Lee ( not as good as MIke!) but don't underestimate NKI the last three seasons he has been outstanding.For Darcy to win a title i believe he has to improve his gating at world level.

BOOM! There you go! I predicted that - not that it was difficult to work out!

 

I agree Darcy has great potential but FACTS say that Iversen is currently better. Not really interested in the future - more interested in now!!

Did Rohan finish on a higher average or not?? :rolleyes:

Depends on the timing of the question. Earlier in the season most would choose Rohan but last 1/3 it would be Josh. Ask yourself who you would have picked for the play offs between the two. You will answer with who was the better rider at that time.

I'm not so sure about the witchcraft reference but he certainly is a talent!
