Sheffield V Newcastle Pl Ko Cup 2nd Leg Thursday 21st July 2016


Recommended Posts

Sheffield Tigers

 

1. Simon Stead
2. Dimitri Berge
3. Josh Bates ?
4. Kyle Howarth
5. Jason Garrity ?
6. Arthur Sissis
7. Nathan Greaves

 

Newcastle Diamonds

 

1. Steve Worrall
2. Victor Palovaara
3. Matej Kus
4. Ludvig Lindgren
5. Robert Lambert
6. Lewis Rose
7. Danny Phillips

 

Sheffield's injured pair (Josh and Jason) and Newcastles usual unavailability issues will mean some changes for this 2nd leg match which dare I suggest is all over bar the shouting the Diamonds won the 1st leg 62-28. But the fixture has to be fulfilled. Sheffield may just hit 12 5-1s giving themselves a chance in the last 3 heats :shock: wish there was a flying pig emoticon!!

That could have been me on the other thread! Getting my Edinburgh riders mixed up!

You making mistakes & admitting them Steve in the same sentence, WOW I never thought I'd see the day LOL!!

This meeting is a dead duck.

 

Would have normally gone.... but after Sunday's first leg it isn't worth bothering

 

Don't be to sure, I remember in 2010 we beat Sheffield 59-31 at Armadale and then went to Sheffield the following week and they beat us 61-31 :o , so never say never

One of the great nights at Owlerton in recent times, think Edinburgh had won at Owlerton earlier that season as well. The team that night rode out of their skins and was just one of those nights that everything went right. Don't think this team is capable of those exploits as we don't have enough depth in the team especially in the reserves. Would be nice to put a decent display in on Thursday after that horror show on Sunday.

We should have enough of a lead, but anything can happen on the night.

 

It's a pity Jason Garrity isn't fit. His races against Robert Lambert the last time we were there were worth the admission alone.

You're right about that, those two were really up for it and everybody was on their toes during those races. As for Thursday it depends on what mood the Sheffield riders are in, could be that you will beat us here as well! If Bates is riding anything could happen, and I mean 'anything'.

Newcastle teams do not usually score freely at Owlerton. The Sheffield track is entirely different to what the diamonds are used to for their home meetings but our 2016 Newcastle side is a different kettle of fish so this will be an interesting meeting. I cannot see Sheffield scoring anywhere near to 63 points to overcome the diamonds lead but stranger things have happened.
Some of Sheffield's support may stay away because of the uphill nature of the cuptie but really they are missing seeing a very entertaining Newcastle Team.
Come on Ludde and the lads lets win the 2nd leg too

Cracking result, even though we didn't need it for this aggregate competition. Pity we have already lost here in the PL, as I could fancy going back and stealing a win. Leave it for the playoffs eh. :P
