Coventry 2017


Recommended Posts

Bjerre is quality and i think he will show this at Coventry and if his brother is there also this surely has to be good for both of them

 

My concern would be Garrity who will have to be a heat leader and Sarj who maybe will be in the main body of the team, both seem to have big averages and is a scary thought. No way is garret a good enough heat leader compared to Rye Houses

We can have Garrity in the side long as the 4th rider is someone who can challenge to be a heat leader like Schelin. With Sarjeant I agree his average is just too high when you look at other riders on a similar average.

Garrity on the way up most of Rye House on the way down and in this league I think he would do ok

Best i can come up with

King

Kylmakorpi

Bjerre

Garrity

Schlein

Bates

2 pointer

49.88

good team but would rather have Fricke if possible

King

K Bjerre

Schlein

L Bjerre

Bates

 

 

Would leave us with 13.29 (if I've done my sums right). for the last two.

 

Would you gamble on a big hitter (JK/Fricke) and a lesser reerve or settle for two 6.5 riders, ensuring we'd probably have the best pair of reserves all season, and hope that King, Kenny and Rory/Lasse can perform as heatleaders all season?

Sarjeant only averaged 3 most of last year and doesn't seem to have improved. I think he would be a risk on almost a 6 average.

I think a change might benefit him

reserves are not going to be so important next season as the last two so I would go with either Fricke or Jk

Reserve are as important now as they have ever been. Very few teams have won anything without a good reserve. Edinburgh 2015 is about the exception I can think of.

The next signing I would like would be Bates (5.02 i believe),and ideally you can fit him at reserve. Would love to see Fricke at Brandon, a rider who is young and is only going to get better. That would give us 3 very good heat leaders, especially in this league and a very strong reserve able to take 5 rides

 

Fricke 9.91

King 9.57

Bjerre 8.22

Schlein 7.17

Walasek 7.63

Bates 5.02

JPB?? 2.00

 

Hopefully that makes 49.52 or take out Schlein and Walasek and put in Garrity 8.55 and L Bjerre 6.65 which makes us 49.92 I think. I imagine a lot of teams will be interested in JPB , not sure who else would come in on a 2 point average. Either team would have a nice balance of youth and experience, and gaters and racers. I know people have questions about Rory and Bjerre fitness/injuries,but on those averages they don't have a lot of downside and a potential big upsides for both. 4 or 5 years ago both I believe were number 1's, Rory at Belle Vue and Bjerre at Peterborough.

Id rather have Garrity than Walasek anyday, if he could be accomodated
