Tommy Sweetman Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 If, as most fans think its a toss up between Scornicki and Musielak for the final place in the top five,it hardly gives us much choice for the final place to partner Max Clegg at reserve. Don't know much about either,and never seen them race.But Ollie or Dan Greenwood would fit,especially now that the latter has signed for the Heathens,and would probably soon get used to the Monmore track. Would have preferred Matt Williamson,but that takes us slightly over the 50 points limit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish keeper Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Well if it is Schlein that only leaves 2.37 for our number 7 so could be Greenwood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Flag Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Well if it is Schlein that only leaves 2.37 for our number 7 so could be Greenwood. If that's the case we would be much better going for Danyon Hume who has loads of improvement in him and has impressed me every time I have seen him ride where as Greenwood has been at the same level in the NL for 3 seasons now and has probably reached his level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beowulf Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Is Schlein fit, is the first question that comes to mind. Why take a risk if you don't have to ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 It wouldn't surprise me at all if Schlein is being considered, particularly given the top flight would have priority as a kings Lynn asset. Personally give me Skornicki 100 times over if it's a straight one or the other. It's clear there are several options being considered.

Boffy Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 If it is Schlein ....then Nathan Greaves is a logical addition on 2.32... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Schlein would be an excellent signing, give wolves arguably the strongest top 4 in the league. And be the experienced fugue in the pits they need in the post PK era. And be the experienced figure in the pits they need in the post PK era.

Were it to be he, one would hope that there is a Plan B back-up should the need arise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCOGNITO Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Rory Schlein is one of the so called Bargain riders as he has an average that is obtainable where as most have over inflated averages where most riders will drop a point or two. If he can stay injury free and avoid doubling up clashes (think Wolves get priority any way) then he will be a great signing to make a powerful top four. Never fear, Sudden Sam has had his knee fixed. He'll be good to go by mid summer Looking at some of the names in the top level h could certainly do a job as a reserve or second string.

Tommy Sweetman Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Think Rory probably comes into the thoughts of CVS/Adams as can be seen by the amount of guest bookings he has received in the past for Wolves.Think its only him having a fairly high average in years gone by(and of course his injuries)that has prevented him already being at Monmore at some stage of his career. It would be a cause for concern with the doubling up,as we already have three riders doing the same thing. Also,,Rory knows better than anyone else wether his body can take the strain of riding in both leagues,or him cutting down on his workload. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also,,Rory knows better than anyone else wether his body can take the strain of riding in both leagues,or him cutting down on his workload. Not too sure if he has ever been in the first bracket which is more like Bomber, Nicholls or Bridger who nearly signed before but have never done it apart from regular guest appearances.' Most team's will feature four or five riders doubling up just like last year most had four. If he isn't riding abroad then 50 or so meetings shouldn't be a problem to a rider who has guested for virtually everyone in recent years due to a low average. As he is owned by a Premiership club I think Wolves do get first call, if not Thursday's are going to be a problem. He has had some very good rides at Monmore Green including one maximum when he was in a class of his own that night but overall he is a decent seven point rider and would be a good signing but I still prefer the thought of Patrick Hansen or Tobiasz Musielak as stable and potential improves.

SCB Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Skornicki and Greaves complete the team. It's a bloody good team too - at home at least. Bottom 3 a bit suspect away from home. Can someone explain why if Skornickis last average was 6.14 why his average is 7.22 and not 8.59?

pubichair Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) a poor team overall IMO. Very weak reserves and Howarth and skornicki in top 5 is poor Edited December 19, 2016 by hair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be very surprised If they dint make the playoffs. In Adam we have an experienced head and natural team player required in a long season. People can underestimate him but Wolves fans know he can deliever when required. Greaves has struggled in the EL previously when he was far too inexperienced. Hopefully this year he will benefit from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 I don't rate Greaves at all but he is more experienced than other number sevens and should score points. Play Off certainties and could well finish top of the pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
