Rye House 2015


Recommended Posts

With two changes, Boxall and Greenwood out, we haven't got much scope other than like for like replacements. Mattress for Boxall would leave us 3.57 to replace Greenwood. Hawkins would fit but he was dire last time he ride for us and it appears he's been the same this year. Better to persist with Greenwood or another youngster.

 

If Kasper is out longer term we could make three changes, it'd be key to keep Robin at reserve though IMO or bring in someone else who could score heavily in a reserve berth.

How do you propose they bring in squad systems when there's so many injured riders at the moment and nobody to an equivalent standard to replace them?

There are plenty of riders of a similar standard to Boxall about though, whether they are the right fit for Rye is another matter. The heatleaders are where there is a problem, squads with teams having to use British reserves only is completely feasible and also better in the long run for British Speedway.

 

Could we see wilson dean come in on a 5.00 for Boxell, leaving room for greenwood to be replaced by someone on a 4.15 or less. BWD would then come in at #6 or #7

 

Wilson-Dean has said he will only ride for Eastbourne this season, can't see him going back on that sadly. If he did sign then we'd lose Robin at reserve and I don't think that's a gamble worth taking personally.

As much as everyone probably wants him to go PL show what he can do in a tougher league, he wont be this year. Next year, which club? I think he will have at least 10 solid offers probably.

Only seen him once, at Rye last week. Looked pretty impressive. Gonna have another look at Mildenhall on Sunday

Get Warren Scott to open up the 'Restart' wallet and have a look at some of these European U21 riders. Not sure if they would come in on an average that would fit ?

Do young Euro riders come in on a 5 ??

All depends on what country they are from and what competitions they have already competed in. If we gamble on an assessed five pointer then Robin would move into the main team, not worth that gamble imo. Even Wilson-Dean on a five point average would be a gamble somewhat, he looks impressive but he wasn't that much better than Morley round Rye and Morley is on a 3 point PL figure still.

It appears Ashley Morris walked all over him at Somerset last week too.

I could be wrong but I think that the first three would come in on seven point averages and Castagna would be on a five. Kulakov possibly even an eight, seem to remember Bondarenko at Leicester starting on an right point average as a Russian a few years back.

Think a lot of people are overestimating him, no doubt he's got potential but the NL is a weaker league this year too.

Was his first full meeting at rye tho. Also was first time he seen the somerset track, so maybe not gonna be getting a maximum straight away. Bet he scores more at mildenhall this sunday than he did when he was there first time around.

We can't forget that almost every track he goes to he has never seen, to pass beat Morley around rye house and kent 3 times over the weekend on tracks hes practically never ridden he's doing well. I think he could only get better by being in the PL, he needs a tougher challenge to help him improve.
