rustyre bel1 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 Hard to predict this one. 2 good sides, can the Rebels get enough to defend up there. After the cup final I think so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulco Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) We were 21 - 21 after heat 7 in the league meeting down there , before it all went wrong . We have Nick Morris , who we didn't have that night , so hopefully that makes a difference . Hope we can stay in touch to make Sunday interesting Edited October 7, 2015 by Paulco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RebelDan Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 This will much closer than the league meeting I think, however the Rebels are in good form and Jensen at reserve could be a trump card. 10-12 point home win for me making the 2nd leg v interesting.

damosuzuki Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 A very tough one for us, Somerset look so strong when you see the team they have. However, we have Summers riding phenomenally at the mo. Lawson hopefully back on form, Morris looking good, Neiminen fit and everyone else in the points so we have a chance. But they must be favourites. I just don't want a drubbing down there to make the Sunday a face saving excercise. Under ten points I'd be delighted - but certainly wouldn't be shocked if it was worse. Weather looks good so please please please lets not mess it up down there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KIRKYLANE Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 The first leg will be the deciding factor re this play off.......Glasgow have a point to prove if they wish to be in the final against Edinburgh. However it could still be Edinburgh v Somerset in the Final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooksy Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 I will make a confident prediction.......... it'll be cold! Apart from that, who knows? Morris,Summers and Lawson should be a match for Brady,Josh and Richie. Rasmus may just outscore the Tigers' reserves, so that leaves Paul and Chas against Niemenin and Palovaara. Much will depend on how fit Niemenin is. In the past he has scored well at the OTA, but that was a few years ago. Hoping Rebels by 8 or more, and doing enough to keep it close on Sunday and scrape through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme624 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Very little enthusiasm and excitement for this fixture from Rebels fans on this forum. Many must I feel think this is a foregone conclusion over the two legs.Could be closer than many anticipate especially if Glasgow have their gating on song.

Cliffeboy Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 I think this will be a close one with maybe just a couple of points over the two legs deciding the tie. Lawson could be a key for Glasgow as he is a bit hit and miss at our place. If all of the Rebs turn up on Friday though buoyed by the great show against the other Jocks the other week it could be very tough for the Tigers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aroundtheboards Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 We've got to watch our backs ! Nick Morris will be out to impress.

MD Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 I'll predict a rerun in ht2 with a warning to the rider in yellow to sit still at the tapes. Thereafter i hope we can keep it under 10 points. Well by ht8 anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Just about advantage Glasgow. Kept it a lot closer than I expected. Rebels have already proved they can go to Scotland and defend a slender lead though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckerroo Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Good match, lots of hard but fair racing . Kurtz had bike issues, niemenen was bloody awful,fair result. Glasgow must be favs really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Probably about as best we could have hoped for but this is very much in the balance. Somerset have already won at our place and I would consider them slight favourites but is really difficult to call. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
