Jacques Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Of course he should do what's right for him,but perhaps he should consider doing something else for a living if he can't manage the schedule like lots of others do.It's about money. Dear god, are you thick. He's doing what is best for him, as I would do. Money? Good for him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostwalker Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) no i do, esp with Hampel out, had it been in Poland i wouldnt.... The same Poland that were just a few points from going straight to the final despite only having three riders? Janowski, Zmarzlik and Pawlicki usually ride well regardless of which track it is. Buczkowski isn't some push over either. Sure they aren't perhaps as good as they are in Poland but the same goes for GB. I think Vojens will suite the Polish riders better then the British riders.

Arson fire Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 very true but I bet the other Countries around the World had a good laugh at Rossiters fekk up!what did he do? Or not do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Well done to the boys,. It was a hard fought meeting and the Aussies got it in the end.. The race off is not going to be good viewing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Dear god, are you thick. He's doing what is best for him, as I would do. Money? Good for him! Completely agree! People that say life isn't all about money, there deluded. Speedway riders have a short spell to earn there money, they don't have careers that last for 40 years, they have 20 years to make as much money as possible! Good for Tai I say! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Rosco got the nominated races totally wrong and it cost us. What's the point of putting your best rider in heat 20 when it could be, and was, all over 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 for me there was 2 races that cost us, the race when Lambert (superb debut by the way) got excluded for touching the tapes, the second when Norris past Lambert on the run to the flag, IMHO Norris on another day could of been excluded as he lifted and ran into Lambert causing lambert to broadside a bit slowing him down. Good meeting though and the Aussies did deserve their victory, but a great big well done to our boys who didn't let themselves or us down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyderd Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Good job by the Aussie boys. I doesn't matter now I'm though, but did woffy put his back wheel inside the white line in turn 3/4? I thought he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point of putting your best rider in heat 20 when it could be, and was, all over I couldn't believe it when we left our best to last. We were behind so why not try to catch up as quick as possible. If GB were in front come heat 20 it puts pressure back on the Aussies.

Odds On Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 what did he do? Or not do? all he had to do was tell Bomber to finish behind Batchelor in heat 8, this would of meant we could use the joker in the next race, either Bomber or Woffinden in place of Lambert, if this had happened the chances were that either of them would of beaten Morris and thus forcing at least a run off, but there would of been more pressure on the Aussies and who knows what would of happened....tactically amateurish by Rossiter imo.

So you're saying that he should have told his rider to loose on purpose? He played the game fair and lost. That is how you do in sports. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonbee48 Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 no i do, esp with Hampel out, had it been in Poland i wouldnt.... My heart says i hope you are right and i am wrong. We'll know after Thursday. The Poles will be maxed up with a very genuine sense of grievance after the events of Saturday, . Regards. Alan.

CUFC_Brummie Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 It'd have been a dangerous game throwing a heat that early to get an opportunity to play the joker, Woffinden ran a 3rd and Hancock did the same whilst on a joker ride, you screw up then and it's game over with a long way left to go, we got to within one and whilst I agree that we probably should've put Woffy or Harris out first at least, I thought initially the Aussies had got their selections wrong and that it'd go to heat 20, but Morris beating King was what ended it. A good effort but don't think we'll be close on Thursday, which is a shame as we'd have had half a chance of getting a medal against the Swedes in the final had we gone straight though.

That is how you do in sports. he is the team manager to use the rule book to his teams advantage, when it counted he was found wanting and made him look amateurish.
