Scunthorpe Scorpions 2016?


Recommended Posts

Just seen the 6 riders, with no surprises ,with another 3 point rider to be named BUT can someone tell me is there leeway on the 42.5 points for a team as the total for Scunthorpe will be 42.52 just over the 42.5 OR was the team total points changed at the promoters bash and I have missed it.

alex is more than capable of making a mockery of his average,I know how good he is would of loved to have him back,Garry may missed the boat on that one I think for whatever reason.

not a bad looking team, but didn't they have these same riders last year and finished 3rd from bottom of the league, chuck in taylor poole who has spent over a year out of british speedway it could be a big ask even to get to the play offs

Genuine question i thought Australians had to have a 7 point average to qualify for a visa has the rule changed with you having signed 3 on 6 point averages thanks in advance for your answers.

 

There are far greater authorities than me on this, however what we have been told is:

 

Ryan Douglas is on year 2 of a 3 year Visa.

Alex Davies is Visa Free.

Taylor Poole needs a top 4 finish in Aussie championships to obtain a visa.

So if Taylor doesn't, you're screwed?

Taylor Poole needs to finish in top 4 of his Aussie state championship, not the national title.

 

All the best

Josh was injured twice & only rode in about 12 meetings, Zdenek only rode in 3, Ryan only came over in june & had about 6 meetings so of last years team, only Alex & Wilko rode for the majority of the season with the former finding his fett as he had a year out in 2014.

 

Most teams look good on paper at the start of a season but performing & being injury free is another story.

The valid Australian 'visa championships', as listed in Appendix 1 of the eligibilty rules, are;

 

Australian Individual Championships – Top 4

New South Wales Championships – Top 4

Queensland Championships – Top 4

South Australia Championships – Top 4

Victoria State Championships – Top 4

Western Australia Championships – Top 4
