Django Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Depending on the points limit and visa situation I can see Mason next, maybe even Matt as Laura stated he wanted to return in the newspaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Depending on the points limit and visa situation I can see Mason next, maybe even Matt as Laura stated he wanted to return in the newspaper He will need to do the State Championship, and finish no lower than 4th to get his visa.

MD Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 He will need to do the State Championship, and finish no lower than 4th to get his visa. The Australian State Championships will be the most hotly contested for years as a result of the Visa situation. I dont see Campton being a hot tip somehow and really wonder if his standard of rider gets in, there is little point in actually having Visas.

Django Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 It's a stupid rule anyway, he finished 3rd in a round of the NATIONAL champs (7th overall I think) ahead of riders like Masters, Sedgman, Fricke and Grajczonek but missed out because he crashed in his own state champs. He has plenty of potential and if he qualifies this year then he will deserve to be here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Western Australia, the Northern Terrorories and the Tasmanian state finals means 12 easier permits! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Western Australia, the Northern Terrorories and the Tasmanian state finals means 12 easier permits! Which is why it's a stupid rule, should only go on the National title, say top 10. It's far fairer, it's a 3 round comp rather than a one off make or break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marksman Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 No Howarth? Won't be back, and wouldn't want him back no consistency and usually fails to produce away from home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cooper Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Won't be back, and wouldn't want him back no consistency and usually fails to produce away from home his head had been in the elite league all season,gave me the impression it was a chore to ride for worky,couldn't be bothered to do a victory lap when winning a race, so yes looks like pastures New for Mr howarth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Lucan Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) Certainly would look to give Matt Williamson another go, has potential if he fancied it, tho I wouldn't entirely draw a line through Nathan Greaves either I'd like him to find another 10mph first? With the improving latter season scoring I would even be tempted to give a swansong to Mattie Wethers, experienced and versatile middle/res rider could be very handy to have from the get go this time around?
