topaz325 Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Another stern test for the Comets who take on the bears who are looking a much stronger team than in recent years and just last night beat Newcastle very convincinly. With Wright, Barker and Garrity the bears have a formidable top three so Worky will have to be quick offf the starts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenga Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) i have tipped redcar to be in the mix come the play offs . a totally different side for 2017 . really strong with some top performers . the bears are a great side . as long as garrity and barker dont self destruct , they will shock a few this year . in including us on saturay ! there is going to be some good stuff going on , on saturday.

topaz325 Posted April 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Fair result in the end, Mason fall was 50/50 at best, well done Redcar in getting the draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olga Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 I'm chuffed to bits that Mason's home form is great ... Cookie is helping him enormously in my opinion which shows the sort of guy/Captain that Cookie is However his away form is yet to be proven imo i.e.4+1(4) at Newcastle he was off the pace and was gifted 2 points due to falls by Diamonds riders. Phillips and Coles that he took points off are at the moment quite weak (ask any Diamonds fan) ... the 2nd place he got he was half a straight behind Ashley Morris. At Glasgow he also managed 4+1(4). You could argue he's making his average away ... but the argument to include him in the team was he'll do better than his average .... for Comets to win away he'll need to score paid 6-7 ... fingers crossed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he run over your cat or something? There is blantently other Comets riders struggling far more than Mason yet you choose to pick on him... Bizarre.

Olga Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 Did you miss the first 10 words of my post? No I don't "have it in" for Mason ... but neither am I declaring him as a world beater just yet ... I'm just reflecting about his away form (with some scores/facts) in response to a "good season so far" comment talking about Matt and Mason. Not sure "other Comets are blatantly struggling"? Why would they do that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Lucan Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 You've really got it in for Mason haven't you??? Did he run over your cat or something? There is blantently other Comets riders struggling far more than Mason yet you choose to pick on him... Bizarre. "There are clearly" are the words you were looking for DD and yes, there are, Adam Roynon being the most obvious? Desperately short of something so far and not looking competitive at all on Saturday, Ht14 could become an issue if he cant find some speed from somewhere, blown away by Andersson this week? What's exposing the middle order/reserves is the lack of genuine scoring from the Ht leaders at 3/5, Proctor/Jorgensen not getting in among'st the big pts at the moment and it's leaving us a bit short of back up for Cookie? Campton is under scrutiny this year anyway and we all knew that, his away form, "so far" is a smidgen down, (scores posted prove that) so there's not much of an argument about that, but his home form, especially over the last week or three has been pretty good and competitive, just shows what a bit of investment in equipment can do, well, around DP any road, now, if he carries "that" onto the away tracks he'll be doing alright, wow, never thought I'd say that? Been impressed with Williamson so far, he's doing pretty well and starting to return the sort of scores we always thought he would do, he'll do for me, coming along nicely and so, as a matter of fact, is Rob Shuttleworth, hanging in there and having a go, he'll get better as the season progresses, yeah, got potential!! Cookie proving to be the top man as was clearly expected, but, it's a long season and he can't do it all on his own? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Lucan Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Well reasoned thoughtful post LL ... tops I like to think so, based entirely on what I've seen so far and, although we're not that outstanding at the moment, the potential is there if they all click together and, just for once, I really hope that we do??
