Briggs------ Mauger------ Moore------ Shirra-------- Mardon. ( Ron Johnson and Larry Ross the next two.

 

Ron Johnson was an Australian of Scottish heritage. Do you mean Ron Johnston who was a fine rider for Belle Vue?

All the best

This would be my best quintet too.

 

Very difficult to argue with it to be honest.

Geoff Mardon possibly instead of Bob Andrews.Barry Butterworth must also be considered i guess :P

 

Barry Butterworth is rightly included in the New Zealand Speedway Hall of Fame but cannot be considered - at least IMO - in this thread because we are dealing with motorcycle speedway riders.
