Ipswich 2015


Recommended Posts

I would go with Worrall, Heeps, Manzares and Ellis. Not sure about Hawkins on his average, but Tungate and Risager will not entice me to Foxhall again next year. Danny King is a must imo...

pretty much in line with my assessment.

 

Whilst it would be harsh in Ritchie H it may be his average forces him out if to accomodate the top end.

Why do people keep sticking tungate and risager in their teams for next year? They have been flops when it's really mattered

Totally agree, about risager and tungate, harsh on Hawkins but he may have to go to accommodate a new up and coming rider.

It seems most are agreed on a core of

 

King 8.84

Worrall 7.32

Gino 6.02

Cam 5.38

Adam 4.67

Total 32.23 leaving 10.27 under current limit

 

Options for the final 2

 

If we go with what we know then Leigh and Hawkins would fit.

 

Wells on 6.46 has been mentioned. With him in you have the likes of Fox Bates Nielsen and Greenwood who fit.

 

Go with a 3 pointer or if a fast track type system is introduced then Sedgman Lindgren and Aspegren fit but of course therre is a problem with Swedes and Thursdays. A new 7 pointer from elsewhere perhaps?

 

Poole or Bellego would fit with Covatti.

 

Tressarieu would fit with Sneddon Lykke Rose Roynon Bunyan Starke Campton

 

October averages used so there could be a few minor tweaks for a number of those quoted that make a difference.

Word of warning for those suggesting Ricky Wells.

 

This from Olga on the Worky thread..

 

"Don't mind who Comets bring in next year Mgt are good in my view. Having said that lose Ricky Wells for goodness sake.

Start of season 7.81 now he's 6.46 and he's ridden a lot of the year as second string. It's not like he's seeing tracks for the first time either - so no excuses there. He scores more for Wolves than Comets and has ridden in a World Cup. I've seen him after a lap and a half check he's good where he is and coast in ... if he gates great if he doesn't he might as well pull off the track.

 

Poor signing and Sheffield fans saw all this last season ... let him go asap. Why reward a guy with another season when he's "blown us out" this year?"

 

That isn't an isolated post about Wells either as I've seen many many posters questioning his dedication, commitment and attitude.

 

Swerve.

Morten had had a decent season with the customary purple patch in the middle but goes missing at vital times. Surely Louis must consider this when he's putting together a team for next year?? (actually maybe not)

 

Wells and Bates would be good around foxhall, but matt t and Roynon would be the extra 2 racers we need on the racers tracks.

Wells 6.46

Risager 7.36

 

I know who I'd prefer in my starting lineup.

I haven't got a problem with Risager. Based on this season alone I'm sure he's performed consistently better than any other member of the team so he's the last one I'd be criticising.

 

BUT, I do think it's time that the team needs freshening up and having a different look about it so Risager would be one I'd personally leave out.

 

If he isn't in the team next year though I'll eat my hat.

Wells 6.46

Risager 7.36

So do I, Risager. Seriously, Wells isn't that good and if people like to have a good whinge about Risager, they'll absolutely hate Wells I promise you.

Wells is pretty good around our track, just like morten is, the tracks of Workington and Sheffield are big racing tracks, so probably don't suit Wells as much, which incidentally morten is poor on also, so given that Wells is on the lower average, I would take him everyday of the week to help us make the middle order stronger or the bottom end.

 

Yes morten will most likely be in next year's team, but unfortunately it's not for the right reasons, and I its no way to be running a so called sports team.

So whomever anyone wants the details that most agree on is that changes will be minimal, that Morten is possibly guaranteed a place and we will use our assets wherever possible.

 

With that in mind you could see Worrall replaced with Leigh at around 42 points.

Does king morten tungate heeps

Ellis Hawkins and lanham fit? Or king morten tungate Ellis gino heeps lanham fit? I really can't be bothered trawling through to find out.

first one is 44.8 so would need a 3 pointer instead of Cam to fit!!

 

Second one 45.55 so drop King for Boxall or equivalent to fit!!
