DC2 Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 How about: Doyle 8.44 Morris 6.31 Schlein 6.22 Musielak 5.00 Batchelor 7.58 Blackbird Ritchings You think that team is better than: Doyle Allen P Pawlicki Mads Kildemand Auty Sarjeant ???? I'd taken Allen on 5.19 rather than Morris on 6.31. Pawlicki is better than Schlein, especially in the big meetings, Mads is a proven EL heatleader compared to Musielak & Sarjeant is much better than Ritchings. I might have taken Blackbird pre-broken leg rather than Auty but his "quality" is based on one season whereas Auty has been a heatleader for a number of years in the PL. Maybe less hasty next time, SteveO! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Seriously?? They are both established EL riders who more than hold there own in the top 5...drafting them would be ludicrous Worrall and Howarth have less EL experience than Auty and Newman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe less hasty next time, SteveO! Where did I say it was a better team? Both teams are gash because of the dilution of the league - which was my point! I wasn't saying your team was bad compared to what it could have been I merely stated it was bad. No haste from me at all although I did try and select riders that were likely to ride for Swindon - wouldn't want Allen back at Blunsdon at all, Pawlicki more likely to be elsewhere, Mads is a possibility which would give more points available elsewhere but Sarjeant should be at Coventry which is why I went for Ritchings because there are no better riders than Sarjeant if he is in the Group B banding.

hagonshocker Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Worrall and Howarth have less EL experience than Auty and Newman Knock knock hello is there anybody home?! Richie Worrall has world cup experience and Howarth more than held his own at number 2 for Coventry....Newman rode at reserve and Auty is a rider who has clearly gone backwards....how can you say Howarth has less EL experience than Kyle?....Newman barely rode EL but for a handful of metings prior to 2014 yet Howarth has just completed 2 full seasons... Because they both have lower PL averages than the top draft riders. Richie Worrall?...really?!....you want him drafted then you are crackers....

Richie Worrall?...really?!....you want him drafted then you are crackers.... Where was this World Cup experience for Worrall? But what you're saying is, it's a "fast track system for those who are not improving too fast" like Richie? Richie and Stevie for a start have exactly the same amount of time on a bike, if one is in, how can the other with the lower PL average not be? Howarth is also only a 6 point PL second string, like Newman and Garrity. Auty has gone backwards? Really? From what/when? If Auty has gone backwards then so has Worrall as they both have the same PL average atm but Worrall was a point higher last year! Newman had ridden 2 more EL meetings that Howarth since 2011 (neither raced EL before that). Richie Worrall has an average on a par with a numebr of the draft riders.

Maybe less hasty next time, SteveO! Why would anyone have Olli Allen in their EL side. He has showed time & time again that he is not up to the rigours of the EL. I can't remember the last time he lasted a full EL season, his nickname is not r/r (or sick-note) for no reason. I liked him when he rode PL for the Robins but he never made the step up to EL 1-5 with any distinction.

I liked him when he rode PL for the Robins but he never made the step up to EL 1-5 with any distinction. I take you point, especially because he is injury-prone, but Ollie he has been a top PL rider for years, he was better than Nick Morris in the PL last year, he would come in on 5.19 rather than Nick's 6.31 & in a semi-protected second string role he should up his average by a point (Nick won't). He is the bargain this coming year that Grajczonek was last year. With Nick & Ollie it's the difficult choice between a future prospect or the pragmatic bargain who might win you the league.

A ORLOV Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) Would like to see No1 and 5 riders, any combination of Killer,Jason,Emil, Batch. and if available take a gamble with S Worrall at 2 which would give stronger options at 3 and 4.

If he is a 5 or a 5.5 then I can see us fielding a good top 5 with Doyley, Batch/Killer, Morris and the new foreign rider (if it comes off).

theblueboy Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) I am not sure about Doyle. I have nothing personal against him and I think he has turned in to a good rider but I do think he is a little high in the averages for my liking. We have missed the boat in terms of his average being favourable and utilising it for our benefit and, if one of Holder/Ward/Pawlicki/Janowski (take your pick) are available I would much prefer one of those. If he is available and able to commit I would go with the same top 2 but feel that it will be too many meetings for PK. So on the basis PK won't be here Holder 8.75 Batchelor 7.58 Morris 6.31 Schlein 6.22 Musielek 6.0/Kornelieussen 5.95 (He has stagnated, however, on that average and as a 2nd string he may well be worth a season) Edited. Apologies. My brother has just verbally abused me that the team is too high and I can only apologise to the BSF masses. Please take pity on me, I am forced to work for the Government principally because no one in private industry will have me Edited November 18, 2014 by theblueboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please take pity on me, I am forced to work for the Government principally because no one in private industry will have me Jason has that average because of his massive improvement & there is still more to come for me so would pre-fer him to anyone at no 1 if Killer isn't coming back.

I like the sound of having Howarth back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
