I never said they do..........I just suggested that Cook was did not have the natural ability and talent to get the same sort of fee (for the club) that Darcy did injury free or not........

I still think you would get more value out of Cook, though. He's 100% professional, tough, mature and extremely fit. At the end of the day you pay for points and Cook would be up on my list just behind the real elite riders. He is Mr consistency. Keegan vs Gazza.

 

Even as a Glasgow fan he has been a joy to watch this season. The final of the international thing at Ashfield showed just how quality he is.

My point exactly........and what has gone on around Darcy has nothing to do with why he commanded the fee he did..........Cook does not have the naturally ability or talent that Darcy has to command that sort of fee whether he has been injury free or not...............

interesting to read just what people class as natural ability . cookie just jumped on a bike and that was it from day 1 .the guy was beating top riders for fun in his first

competitive rides .

 

in the meantime darcy was on a bike getting loads of laps .

 

both guys are naturals.

Great Captain's speech by Cookie at dance last night finishing with a toast to Uncle B. Going to miss his leadership as well as points scoring for Monarchs. Wonder who next captain will be?

a good captin is not always 1 of the top riders derek snedon in my opinion was great caption in his day

its about who can keep the rest motivated and keep the peace amongst the team

far to many teams dont bond and the riders ride to beat there team mates rather than the oposition

Yes Deek was a good captain. He was a hard act to follow but IMO Cookie also did a great job. Two different styles but both were successful.

Max Clegg and Kevin Wolbert signed for next season confirmed at 2nites Dinner/Dance. Im sure it will be on website 2nite or 2moz morn.

Congratulations - I think that Clegg should settle in and add a point or so on his average. And, of course, Woebert will add another 2 points to his average, as always. Unless, of course, he fancies a move away, in which case he will be a useless useful reserve.

If Wolbert had any ounce of decency in his body, the very least he'd do is donate his 2014 Air Miles to charity.
