mdmc82 Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I hope he will be. Big question is who goes if Niels stays? I thought Iversen said he didn't want to ride for a season, just help out until Batchelor is back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I thought Iversen said he didn't want to ride for a season, just help out until Batchelor is back? A lot of chat that Niels has had a change of heart (fingers crossed). In terms of who gets replaced, it's nobody as such, as Huckenbeck is No'8 so Batchelor will just slot in. Huckenbeck will then be available if and when one of the top 5 start misfiring. Nobody gets sacked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 If Nki stayed and we stayed in the limit i could only see Kai going or dropping out of the team or Rory but i cant see them dropping Rory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody gets sacked I thought number 8 was for a new Johnny Foreigner on a 4 point average? Huckenbeck has been declared in the 1-5 and ridden here already so I fail to see how he can just slot into the number 8 position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarCrazy Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 On current form I would keep the German. He's done well so far. Rory needs to up his game or was he getting his average down enough to allow Batchelor to come into the side with Niels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory needs to up his game or was he getting his average down enough to allow Batchelor to come into the side with Niels? As Huckenbeck is the No. 8, to bring Batchelor into the side he would have to replace one of the declared 1 - 5, which may be why NBJ was added to the team but hasn't ridden yet.

A ORLOV Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 This is all a cunning plan to end up with 5 heat leaders in the 1 - 5 from May 1st. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the averages are low enough now to get Batchelor back in for NBJ.That would certainly make up for the possibly the weakest reserve pairing in the EL. You are right about Huckenbeck though has showed great promise,could we rest him a bit though and make sure he comes back on a nice low average next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right about Huckenbeck though has showed great promise,could we rest him a bit though and make sure he comes back on a nice low average next season I think he has to race 5 more times for him to be an asset. Then I suppose he can be rested if everyone else was on form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelvinht Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Leaving huck out after the start to the season he has had so far and the commitment he has shown would be so unfair, but that's speedway numbers game. At least he would be good to call on in emergency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
