Kyle Newman

Another big score from reserve tonight. Won't be his last as he's too good for that role Had a good 2015 and surely he should have been made to step up to take a 1-5 position in a team. If he wants to progress, as Garrity has tried to do, he should have stepped up.

 

This is not anti Poole just my view.

Surely this has been done to death already! Kyle wanted to ride in 1-5 same as Garrity, but Kyle waiting a month to do it means it helps the team out a lot, whereas Garrity has messed up Coventry's team building.

Bored! Does this really need discussing again?

What makes him too good for a reserve spot out of interest? Because he's been better than a majority of the other draft reserves over the last couple of seasons? His Premier League average is still below seven, if that's a rider who on the whole is too good to be an Elite League reserve then I worry for the state of the sport.

 

This year is huge for Newman, he'll move into the main body of the side potentially, then when he hasn't got two reserve heats each meeting we'll see how good he really is. He needs a big year at PL level too.

Teams are re-jigged every four meetings though, so anyone who can't hack the main body will soon be back to their original place.
