Crazy robin Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Swindon lineup for thursday Jason Doyle Justin Sedgmen Charles Wright Josh Grajczonek Nick Morris Rohan Tungate Stefan Nielsen The more I look at our team the weaker it looks. Rohan dropping to reserve hardly helps us either in my view as Charles has got meetings closer by taking extra rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 This sport at times is a joke, surely a reserves next step is a second string spot why does this Sport create problems.?

Grachan Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Bloody ridiculous as well as they should go into a 2nd string slot regardless of their average which has been attained by riding against 2nd strings & reserves. Agree. With the race format as it is, riders should only go up or down one level at a time. So a reserve should only go up to second string and a heatleader should only be able to drop down to second string from a heatleader position. It's common sense. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I can't see Wright scoring against the top riders as a heatleader so that should leave them in the same boat as now.

A ORLOV Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Tungate or Sedgmen in reserve? I did not look at the latest green sheets and was expecting it would be Sedgmen and not Tungate on their performances to date but their averages are the same as the start of the season, I would not be surprised to see Justins average of 4.7 be below Rohans of 4.64 when they are reassessed.

Don't agree as Charles has been better & scoring more points for Somerset this season & is more used to all the Elite League tracks than Rohan. Rohan for me is more in-consistent as a rider than Charles who has made massive strides in both leagues the last 2 seasons. Given a choice I'd have Charles over Rohan everytime.

I haven't seen much of Swindon this year so just assumed based on Tungate's capability in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't rate the signing of Rohan & have been more dissapointed in him even based on that opinion in his meetings so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to wait and see if he cleans up at reserve or not, has shown some good signs but then had a bad meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Tungate or Sedgmen in reserve? Swindon lineup for thursday Jason Doyle Justin Sedgmen Charles Wright Josh Grajczonek Nick Morris Rohan Tungate Stefan Nielsen Has Wright done his 2 home and 2 away qualifying meetings as EDR yet?? If not, he should stay at reserve for the time being at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Ah I see. The averages on the Swindon website were only up to wednesday 13th April. The home defeat on 14th hadn't been included when I looked. Edited April 18, 2016 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I can't see Wright scoring against the top riders as a heatleader so that should leave them in the same boat as now.I actually believe Charlie can mix it with most, the worry i have with him it takes him a ride or two sometimes to get dialled in.Really enjoy watching him ride a really decent rider even on a bad day a 100 per trier.He has come along way since 2003, when i first see him ride at Buxton when his brother was a CL star. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggin Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Didn't rate the signing of Rohan & have been more dissapointed in him even based on that opinion in his meetings so far. Losing North for Tungate is a big downgrade, really don't get why we couldn't find anyone better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One things for certain & that's Dak wouldn't have dropped to reserve. We had more points left than what we used for Rohan who can only ride slick tracks.

Let's hope he's not saying there's improvement in this team come August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagonshocker Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Not convinced about the reserves moving up into the main body as someone like Tungate may ride like a wally and yet score 6 or so from reserve and on paper that looks ok ...in order to be any use he has to win both 'reserve' races AND knick at least 3rds from his other rides...not convinced he will on a regular basis..Wright on the other hand can hold his own in the top 5 i feel particularly at home As for fitting in someone like Zengi well that may not be feasible and PK is a long lost dream but if things dont improve do we try and beat one or two others to Bjarne? Just a thought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I'm confused!! A ORLOV said it was Justin when the post said Tungate. I did not look at the latest green sheets and was expecting it would be Sedgmen and not Tungate on their performances to date but their averages are the same as the start of the season, I would not be surprised to see Justins average of 4.7 be below Rohans of 4.64 when they are reassessed. I must admit I expected it to be Justin as well. Seemed he have been very poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
