Theboss Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 This is exactly it,we don't know who really is available.Just because they have been released by their clubs doesn't mean they become available to Lynn.They may as you say Trees have been promised a ride once averages etc change at certain clubs.Like the Sedgemen and Tungate swap.Tungate may have been told weeks ago once his average drops we want you at Belle Vue if you fancy it. Promised? You make it sound like the clubs are doing them a favour which is clearly not the case. Â I can assure you every rider is up for grabs if you want them enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 You can see the appeal of Belle Vue for Tungate, riding a track he seems to love and working under the Aussie team manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelvinht Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 On the plus side Jorgensen looks an improvement on porsing. Other than his first ride and second when he dumped on his backside by fricke he looked a decent rider. Fast as well... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g13webb Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Personally I don't like the Team Managers take on meetings where he glorifies the positives. I would much prefer the 'Say it like it was approach' Yesterday he went on how wonderful the team effort was to claw back into contention when we were so far adrift, . but the fact was, we had been truly hammered. Our positives from this meeting were few, and accounted for 2 brilliant 5-1 heats. But listening to Dale, you would think we did really well. The only reason we were in contention at the end was for stupid double points rule. Probably if the riders were listening to this assessment, they probably thought they did well...... Â I still believe there is not much wrong with the Lynn team. They need to perform better, as individuals and as a team. With the exception of Lambert, all the riders could be classed as decent gaters. We shouldn't fear anyone especially on home soil. We desperately need a 'Schlein' as captain or manager, someone to encourage, advise and motivate the team. We don't seem to have that enthusiasm any more and simply going through the motion.. The view from the terraces is that the team don't wake up until the chips are down, so surely this can be seen in the pits..... Â On the plus side Jorgensen looks an improvement on porsing. Other than his first ride and second when he dumped on his backside by fricke he looked a decent rider. Fast as well... Â I'll go along with that. I'd had seen Jorgensen before and had been impressed. Against BV he was thrown in the deep end, but didn't disgrace himself. I thought he was unlucky to be excluded from his second ride, but it was his forceful attitude that got him into contention. I'm in no doubt he will be a tremendous asset to the Stars team. Give him a few meetings to get accustomed and he will be a solid second string with Huckenbeck, with Rose relegated to the top reserve. Â All we need is a quality No.7 and a 'Kick up the Arse' for the rest... To supply only 4 race winners was criminal....... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Thing is you don't have enough points to use to get a decent number 7. Batch Lambert Huckenbeck and Rose all doing their jobs. Holder has been disappointing, but not just for KL, but tbh there are probably not better options available. Porsing was disappointing and been replaced. No 7 you had resolved the issue and unlucky that lambert, who was on a bargain average, got injured and cannot be adequately covered by guest. Really only potential change would be replacing Jorgensen and if points then allowed upgrading number 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 What I mean by a quality No.7 is someone who is keen and talented. and wants to learn from riding with experience riders... something like Dan Bewley or Jack Smith... I'm' not expecting an established rider but someone who is destined for the top league. His No1 priority is he has to be able to gate. Josh Bailey was always up against it when last out of the gate. I thought Jake Knight equipped himself quite well against Wolves and is worth persevering with..... Rather do that then bring it guests of other teams....

Daniel Smith Posted June 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 How do you think the team will look with the revised line-up  1. Troy Batchelor 7.93 2. Thomas Jorgensen 6.08 3. Kai Huckenbeck 6.17 4. Robert Lambert 7.46 5. Chris Holder 7.27 6. Lewis Rose 5.33 7. Danny Ayres 3.00  43.24  Kai & Robert get on really well so I'd certainly partner them up as they'll ride together 3 times Chris & Lewis get on really well so I'd keep that partnership getting 2 rides together. Jorgensen does gate well and looks fast which could be very important up against opposition No1's in heat 1 along side Troy and facing the opposition No3's & No5's in his other 2 races and getting heat 8. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Yeah , I like that. I agree with your comments about Holder and Rose and with Robert and Huck. However I'm of the impression Troy would rather concentrate on himself and seems to recent any partner outscoring him. Then it would be added pressure for Jorgensen to perform as we want him too.

waytogo28 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Sadly riders like Dan Bewley are few and far between. Just as Robert Lambert was five years ago. We were lucky that he started here ( and remains here! ) I can't agree about Jake Knight as I feel he is not destined for anywhere higher than he currently is. A star at NL level but out of that environment he cannot seemingly "do the business" ( does he really want to?or believe that he can? ). Â I am still a fan of one big league ( without GP riders ) of riders of a similar standard. More variety of opponents, more regular matches might result in more fans returning ( or not giving up ). The NL could be retained as a starter league of some kind ( and MDL etc ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NL could be retained as a starter league of some kind ( and MDL etc ) Knight seems to lack commitment (how many times has he taken time out?), but has ability. Seems happy to be a big fish in a little pond and decide when he wants to start or finish a season. Not sure he will ever be committed enough to make more of the chances he has. Always great value to watch tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Im afraid that Troy has always been keen on winning races to way back when he and Kevin Doolan were 3 and 4 in the Lynn line were always getting 5 1s If Troy had the lead Kevin tucked in behind, but if Kevin was leading Troy had to pass him..Dont think you will ever change him now. Don't want to get rid of him so must grin and bare it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always great value to watch tho. He has a good job I believe which must have a big factor on how much speedway he does. Â Welcome Danny Ayres, decent signing. Just hope he and Jorgensen don't miss too many meetings through doubling up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
