Rather disappointing team but nice to see a strong reserve. Not sure Sneddon will increase average and can go missing. Cookie will do what cookie does, rest capable of increasing but certainly wont be many people suggesting we make play-offs. Team success will depend on the form of Fox and Sedgemen.

That doesn't look that bad and getting Sedgemen at reserve may prove to be very shrewd at least until young Fox can master at least his home track was alway's going to be difficult with Cook's average to get the balance off the team but the Edinburgh promotion have probably done as best as they can with what was left after Cook's high starting average not a bad looking team at all.

Wait until after the first month, and see how the new lads have started

 

I'm feeling positive about the team

 

Cookie can up his average by say. 0.50 ish

Max will up his by 1.50 at least

Derek is Derek!! But a good captain

Aaron up by 5 at home overal 1.5

Sam again could be about 1.5/2.00

Steve up by possibly 3.00

Juston should be about 1.00/1.50 at least

 

So yep could be good.....in my opinion

You don't honestly beleive he will average over 6 in his first season over here do you?

 

I would just be happy if he could keep his 5 point average for the season or around that figure

Fantastic optimism.

Glass totally overflowing for you.

Just can't see it myself.

 

Cookie had a fantastic season but will need another fantastic season just to stand still. Can't see much improvement in average if any - certainly not 0.5, though I'm sure he will improve more as a rider.

Max should up his average hopefully but maybe 1 point is as much as we should hope for.

Deek is unlikely to improve his average.

Aaron will have to do extremely well to hold his starting average. I would expect him to drop by 1 point or so.

Sam I would hope might be able to add 0.5 to his average. Any more would be a huge bonus.

Steve is the one I really hope can kick on next season - another 2 points must be a good possibility as long as riding in 3 divisions doesn't do for him.

Just have No idea about. In theory there should be 1 to 1.5 to come - I really hope so.

 

I just fear it is too dependent on Cookie winning nearly 5 every match. I can see some home defeats coming up.

 

Just my opinion of course!

Cookie can up his average by say. 0.50 ish optimistic considering 10.50 is his average lol

Max 1pt tops and prob will ride at 4 with derek at 3

Derek is Derek!! Might go up to 6 if riding at 3

Aaron will ride with cook so no pressure on him, ave to stay at 5.00

Sam 1pt tops cant see sam averaging over 9

Steve continue from end of last season should go up to 4.50

Justin should be about 1.00/1.50 cant disagree with that

 

Bit optimistic there monarchlad lol Edited by PTW

Yep but it's got opinions coming out........I do think we can take our team average to 45/46 or slightly higher

Your predictions would take the team over 50!

Hope Cook does add 0.5 to his average in 2014 and stays with the Monarchs in 2015, then we'll see a team with an ever longer dinosaur tail than 2014.

 

Time to re-name Armadale stadium - Jurassic Park!

I like your optimism.

 

It would be good to see that come to fruition.

 

You just never know...

Yes we can add 2 or 3 points to our starting average if things go well but i honestly can't see us adding 5 or 6 points you are predicting that we can add

It doesn't take to much of an increase from each rider and the points total soon goes up if each rider finished on something roughly like this, Cook 10.60, Masters 8.10, Fricke 6.15, Sneddon 5.80, Sedgmen 5.70, Fox 4.50 and Worrall 4.70 = 45.55 that would be a higher total than we finished last season with, and I don't think I've been overly optimistic with those figures. Personally I'm happy enough with the team bring on 2014. 👍 Edited by spt82
