Massive gamble that side

 

It has the makings with Starke, Allen, Wilson-Dean and Zak to be massive improvers... but it also has the makings of a team struggling to hit 25 points on the road. Like you say, it could be brilliant but it could be awful at the same time. Time will tell!

All 7 have potential to improve their starting averages i feel. A few unknown quantities in the PL but have faith in our promotion as they have provided us with plenty of silverware in recent seasons.

 

If all else fails we will definitely win the PL Scrabble Championships!!

tbh i cant see starke or bwd being massive improvers, Allen and Zak will need to come in and carry all before them... Tungate is ave aswell.... Could get some pastings at home aswell.

 

Lots of inexperience, too much imo

Not the best Somerset team I have seen.

 

Got the proven number 1 in Josh G.

 

Tungate needs to get some consistency with his racing maybe a change of club is what he needed.

 

Will be interesting to see how well Jake Allen goes, seems to have done well down in Aussie.

 

Be interesting to see how the Wright and Starke perform been given a platform to get themselves into the third heatleader role.

 

I would be worried about the reserve pairing lacks a bit of experience and they could be in trouble there.

 

Speaking from experience having 3 riders in your team on assessed averages is a massive gamble, but lets face it the Somerset Promotion are never afraid to make changes if necessary.

 

Will be interesting to see how the season pans out for them over the seson after been one of the top teams in recent years.

So i take it the rule on Aussies has changed back to a 5.00 then if so what was the point in putting up to a 7.00 last year just to change it back the following year. Or does Allen have a British great great Uncle or something nobody has told us about.

anyone know the email address for UKVI?

Sometimes before the season has even started

 

 

this could well be a team that peaks ready for the play offs.

But not with that line up Edited by Shads
