Beowulf Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Teams from the Wolves web-site:- 1. Holder 2. Rose 3. Porsing 4. Batchelor 5. Lambert 6. Wilkinson (guest) 7. Knight (guest) 1. Lindgren 2. Howarth 3. Schlein 4. Thorssell 5. Masters 6. Riss 7. Greaves I think this will be close over two legs, we can forget the earlier Stars match at Monmore. It should help us that the Stars have guests at reserve, but it appears that Greaves is short of equipment and someone was collecting money for him on Monday night. He was in some good point scoring positions but got passed and ended up scoreless. The return of Schlein should add some spice to the proceeding. So I think two home wins and obviously whichever team gets the larger win will be going through. Waiting in the next round are Belle Vue, Somerset and Swindon.

Bagpuss Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 This first leg will be tight, wouldn't bet against a draw but Wolves will run away with proceedings in the second leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g13webb Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 This first leg will be tight, wouldn't bet against a draw but Wolves will run away with proceedings in the second leg. I'll go with that, Have always thought our 1-5 is equal to most teams, and believe we could hold or just edge ahead at home. With Huckenbeck being our 'Ace in the pack' he has always covered the out of depth Bailey all season. But with him missing our reserves look ridiculously weak and I expect this is where we will come unstuck... The introduction of Rambo was a breath of fresh air. and could have been the difference both in our home leg and also the return. Without a decent No 7 we stand no chance.....

waytogo28 Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Wolves by 12 and an angry bunch of Stars fans Wilkinson is a well over the hill journeyman who will be a trier against Wolves. Yes, I know he had a famous victory over Tai W. but that only shows that if you gate and make no mistakes the victory is yours . And with Jake Knight in at 7 we have no likelihood of winning.. I won't bother going because we know only Lambert will stand a chance of catching most of the Wolves riders who gate ( as they usually do ).

mrss Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Don't think I will be spending my cash on this fixture. Stars will be no match for Wolves over 2 legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 I really don't see what others are. I just don't see this being close at all. We've not been great from the starts and if that is to continue, against this side we really will be shown up. Lindgren, Masters, Thorssell, Schlein all great trappers and I fancy for double figures round the AFA. No tactical rides just a straight 15 heats too so a bad start will highlight our problems much greater. We will struggle to hit 40 points, I have no doubt about.

Daniel Smith Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 R/R makes us stronger in my opinion. Batchelor and Rose able to take 2 of his a rides then Wilco to have the other 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Be surprised if Kings Lynn don't lose tonight, team looks very weak against a strong Wolves side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWitcher Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'd not worry about the semi we will effectively be out of the cup tonight . Beowulf is a Wolves fan so perhaps a little more optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
