Is he?!?

He's ripping it up in Poland and Sweden isn't he :rolleyes:

You can't judge a standard of a rider by Championship speedway

Ageeed. On form (last 10 Premiership meetings) the Aussies top 7 are Doyle, Batch, Masters, Morris, Kurtz, Fricke, Holder (Chris)and then Jack. Using away averages Josh G is higher.

 

AFAIK, Jack Holder doesn't rise in Sweden or Poland for them figures to be relevant.

I'll think you'll find that this troll, is exactly the same troll that pervades most threads under several different names.

 

No Polish in him/her/it at all...

Evidence or blind assumption?

 

Easy to make such a comment. The other Poles seem to think they're real. There have been suggestions that they are coming from someone working as a waiter, possibly over here, and with a severe attitude problem as a result.

 

Either way it's irrelevant, they should have been removed from the forum months ago.

Form seems to have been totally irrelevant in this year's SWC.

 

Good isn't it? :wink:

Certainly makes it more interesting! The SWC is always a bit like this, you get riders doing things they shouldn't do.

Looking for a link please.

 

Don't care if GB are last but it would be great to see them put in a good performance. Anything to raise the profile of the sport in this country.

Yes, and that's the reason I love it. By making it the sole focus of riders for up to a week it seems to create its own world apart. Riders seem focussed on the job in hand and often seem inspired by the responsibility. Others though just seem to think it'll all just happen, mentioning no names...

 

We see Russia and Latvia rise, (maybe GB too?), Denmark and Australia fall.

When a rider , in this case Batchelor, drops a point on purpose then not only should he be disqualified from the race but he should be fined heavily for bringing the sport in to disrepute

Should Batchelor be fined for following team orders.Maybe team Australia should be fined but not the rider for following instructions.

Hopefully Cook will go as good as his namesake is doing on Sky sports 2,and hopefully his team mates will do to.

Something needs doing for sure, in a team competition it should be the team who suffer whatever punishment, not allowing them the use of the joker would be a start, problem is it's not always as obvious as it was in Batchelors case. Scrap the thing altogether and the majority would celebrate the fact.

So we drop more points in 3 heats tonight than we did throughout the meeting last Saturday. Hmmm
