Panthers89 Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 So Panthers have 11.71 left for the final two riders. Starke + Wilson Dean looks like it would fit. Any other combos in the frame? There might be, but wouldn't say in the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 You're over egging Starke a bit. BWD simply has to clean up at reservewould be all white imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PE7Panther Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Your yolking of course oh per-leeez see what happens..... would be all white imo Is Brady Kurtz a runner, or is Poland a factor? And who would fit for the other reserve spot? Bewley/Etheridge? Maybe that would leave us too weak at reserve :-/ There might be, but wouldn't say in the frame. Fair enough. What about Wright + BW-D ? Edited December 1, 2016 by PE7Panther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PE7Panther Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Wright is so much better around the Showground. Kennett is the only Number 1 from last season's PL who hasnt been picked. Only Peterborough and Redcar avaliable. Get Kennett in then the Panthers would go unbeaten at home all season long. Kennett Lambert Ostergaard Hansen J. Holder Everyone of those riders is capable of winning races consistently around the Showground. Zach Wajtknecht at No.7 instead of Perks would fit if Kennett and Lambert get the British reduction. Yes, I like the idea of a 'top' No.1 - but it seems I'm not the only one who recalls Kennett blowing hot & cold at our track over the years. However, he would pick up points at most, if not all, the away meetings. Also, a reserve pairing of Wajtknecht + Bacon would be risky. IMHO it's even more important to have a (potential) 'big hitter' at reserve than it is at No.1 Edited December 1, 2016 by PE7Panther 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluPanther Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Todd Kurtz and BWD would be my choice. Both would up their average imo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flappy Posted December 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Very good chance todd will sign for panthers jack and todd are good mates and ride really well together Todd Kurtz is another who's always good for double figures around the showground. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted December 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) And in 2015 Starke 11+3 & 5+1 - both at reserve Wright 12+1 & 8+1 Kurtz 6 & 8 2014 Starke 1 & 1 Wright 5+1 & 10+2 (Reserve) Kurtz 11+1, 13+1, 14+1 (Reserve) & 2 Edited December 1, 2016 by Flappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 I would be very surprised if Ged has chosen Starke over Allen, T. Kurtz, C. Wright and L. Bjerre. 😲😲😲😲 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Plenty of new and new ish posters on here lately. Can only be good for support, as long as they are different people of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PE7Panther Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) New/new-ish...? Been around for a while (since 2007-ish), but post only occasionally - in fits and starts. Tend to get enthused by it - and then interest wanes, mainly due to the incessant schoolyard bickering/point scoring, and the inane drivel that suffocates the interesting stuff. But wild horses wouldn't keep me from the EoES when Panthers are at home Edited December 1, 2016 by PE7Panther 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Was sort of talking monster daz,Flappy. The more interest the better for all teams. I enjoy visiting the showground, plenty of comfortable seating, excellent all round viewing, close to the track so it's nice and loud.

Yep, we're lucky to be able to watch our speedway at the EoES. Is there anywhere better? Edited December 2, 2016 by PE7Panther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panther1997 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Looking at other teams 1-7's. Starke and BWD wouldnt be a bad option after all. Peterborough very strong at reserve. Bacon one of the better 2 pointers partnered with Lambert or BWD at reserve all season. I agree with you but... It is all well and good having a strong reserve all year but we need riders in the top/middle order who are going to improve thier averages, i.e Holder and Hansen. That's why for me the middle order rider we sign is the crucial part in the jigsaw because he has have the potential to do that.

Panther1997 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Jake Allen is the only average improver out of Allen, T. Kurtz, Starke & Wright imo Yes T. Kurtz is good around the Showground but he is also not very good away from home. Starke and Wright always consistent but I cant see them upping their averages. Jake Allen is a steal on a 5.96. Jake would easily put a point on that average. I've been a big fan of Jake Allen for two years now, I'd seen him ride in Aus before, Somerset gave him the chance to come over here. I agree with you that he will improve his average especially with it being a second season and not going to many tracks blind like he did this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HendoWozGud Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Matej Kus is a major possibility from what I'm hearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
