Edinburgh v Somerset 16th Sept

 

The recently postponed 'Cases' Somerset Rebels Premier League match away at Edinburgh has been re-arranged for this Friday (16th), the match also 'doubling-up' as the 2nd leg of the Premier Shield contest between the two sides, Somerset holding a 22-point lead from the 1st leg held at the Oaktree Arena courtesy of Somerset's 57-35 Premier League win over the Monarchs.

from Edinburgh site

 

The Cases Rebels were, initially, unsure about coming to Scotland on Friday as they will be without some of their riders due to an Elite League fixture at Lakeside but their team manager, Garry May, is now convinced that he can put together a team to do them proud.

Initial thoughts that Glasgow would be the visitors were quickly dashed as they have riders missing that would not have been covered by a facility.

Matches against Glasgow and Peterborough have still to be arranged.

so could be 2 guest and RR

Certainly going to be a strange looking team that Somerset bring to Edinburgh, with Swindon at Lakeside they will be without Tungate, Wright and Grajzconek. Don`t know the fitness of Dan Bewley but Belle Vue Colts have a NL meeting at Coventry this Friday and as this is a re-arranged fixture will Coventry have first call on his services, should he be fit to ride.

When they say doublig up I assume it is only one match with score counting for both ??

 

Are TRs allowed in Premier Shield? If not you could have a rider on a TR for the league match but not Shield and have two different scores ongoing!! Only in speedway :oops:

You are correct in your suspicion that no TRs are allowed in the Premier Shield - Art 18.13 A TACTICAL RIDE (TR) tide (NB. Not applicable in any PL two-legged aggregate tie).

 

Therefore the scores in the meeting on 17 August at Somerset should read

 

Premier Shield : Somerset 57 Edinburgh 32

Premier League : Somerset 57 Edinburgh 35

Think Dan Bewley will be out for the rest of the season spoke to him last night at worky and still feeling uneasy on his feet

 

That sounds like a huge blow to the lad and to his teams.

 

But health trumps everything else.

 

Needs to get himself fully recovered however long it takes.

Dan Bewley's CMA is 3.55. This rules out several No 7's with higher averages.

 

The only riders who seem qualified to replace Dan would be Messrs Hume, Phillips, Halsey, Perks, Payne, Wajknecht and Bailey.

 

Rob Branford's average fits, but I don't think he's a registered No 7 -- Ben Morley is, I believe, Rye's man for that job.

I think Wajknecht has been ruled out for the rest of the season due to injury.
