with grieves & govier on the island that means no room for kelsey ? so will the prodigal be returning ? if alex is right and no ben that's another of mine out of the picture as the dugards have suprised me with 2 already so i am pulling my hair out with the possibilities . i'll have to start on the unmentionable hairy places soon as i didn't have that many on my head to start with.

Well, Eagles No1 certainly got that right. Hope he is right with Kelsey & Ben leaving 3.43 for the last one.

 

Certainly different from last year and looks like it could turn out the most well balanced side in the league but along with that we could be struggling in heat 13 & 15. There are already some very strong combinations being formed,

 

The big question is what are the likely options if they don't get Ben who I suspect is looking at the best part of a dozen offers. I am sure Kelsey will be a shoo-in as he ought to be. His first season average was built on about 5.5 at home and 2.5 away so to nearly maintain it last year away from the track he grew up on was a promising improvement. Include the movement up from reserve to No2 last year highlights the improvement.

Hopwood said in the Speedway Star that he'll be riding at a new track, so that's not Eastbourne.

13.54 left Dugard 4.28 + Cottam 4.70 + R.Andrews 4.26 = 13.24 ? Would mean one constantly at reserve which could prove powerful?

 

Cough cough Brum

But they already have Tom Brennan so it could well mean 2 of them at reserve which I think is excessive,

 

I would rather have a stronger no 4 and another young reserve.

 

Kelsey 4.26 + 3.00 pointer leaving 6.28 for No 4. Problem is I can only see 3 Candidates, Danny Phillips, Lee Dicken and Lee Smart all of which I suspect are in other peoples plans. We might have to go with what you suggest but if we are going to be a point under the limit we could well have had Kyle Hughes so I can only imagine Martin has dug somebody up who was not around last year.
