Mr Blobby Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) So the decider to lift the trophy.All will become clearer when after the first league to see who will be in the driving seat for this deciding leg. Neither team will be at full strength due to injures. Edinburgh will be missing Stevie Worrall and R/R will be used his rides may be taken by the reserves, Max and Justin. For the Visitors they will have Aaron Summers in at number 1 in place of Oliver Allen and will also be using R/R for Brady Kurtz, his rides can be taken by the the reserves, Charles Wright, Pontus Aspgren and Nick Morris. Teams for Saturday: Edinburgh Craig Cook Justin Sedgmen Max Fricke Steve Worrall R/R Sam Masters Aaron Fox Derek Sneddon Somerset Aaron Summers (G) Brady Kurtz R/R Charles Wright Pontus Aspgren Nick Morris Todd Kurtz Paul Starke Edited October 23, 2014 by Mr Blobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit59 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 If Edinburgh can keep it close on Friday maybe 8 to 10 points i think the Monarchs will finish the job off.Deek outscored the 2 Rebels reserves last time out when Max Clegg guested and did not score .Got my tickets looking forward to an entertaining meeting.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I think the Monarchs will take the lead on aggregate by heat 5. I expect them to nullify any tacs unlike the Rebels and pull away for a comfortable win with 2-3 heats to spare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Advantage Edinburgh. IMO a 12-point lead is probably not going to be enough for Somerset. The Rebels might have done it, had their been parity and each team been missing one rider each. But the absence of Olly Allen could be the deciding factor.

CardinalSin Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Not one of Allen's better tracks is it? Not sure he'll be a big miss to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) so 12 it is then can see this going down to heat 15. We need to hit the Rebels hard early on big 5-1 in heat 1 to set the tone and not to lose a heat advantage in heat 2 would be an ideal start IMO.

SomersetBlue Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 The telling point will be how Summers goes. We were let down by Kennett. Morris goes well at the Dale and Summers goes well there too. Allen and Brady were our two underperformers there this season. Going to be interesting.

Fromafar Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Monarchs slight favourites IMO.The double points tac rule might decide it,Monarchs might take it easy till after heat11.they have big hitters in the last 3 Heats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 While Edinburgh improved on their previous score at OTA, the Rebels also look better equipped for the return at the Dale.. Replacing Allen who scored 3, and Brady Kurtz 1, with Armadale specialist Summers and r/r should yield a greater points return. For the Monarchs, they will be hard pushed to replicate Worrall's elven point points from his programmed rides, although Fox should hopefully improve on guest Max Clegg's zero tally. IMO Monarchs will be hard pushed to claw back the 12 point deficit, but I'm sure it will not be from want of trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScotsman Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Those were the days when Deek could score 9+2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 With Edinburgh scoring 6 points from their tactical rides last night, could the TR again play its part in deciding the destination of the PL title? Should the rule be dropped in two-legged finals? After all, it isn't used in the PL KOC, so why the play-off final? In any case, looks like we are set for an intriguing second leg tonight. Hope the Edinburgh and Somerset fans don't run out of fingernails to chew by the end. All the best Rob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Certainly going to be tough for Monarchs. 12 points to make up plus the probable heat 2 deficit plus the effect of any joker rides. Could make it as much as 20 points to overturn but probably not that many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Now being a complete neutral i hope all that attend tonight are entertained with no injuries and one final bit BEST OFF LUCK TO SOMERSET GO ON THE REBELS off course i am totally impartial.
