Wolves V Somerset 31.7.17


Recommended Posts

Both teams at full strength?

Masters hurt ribs in a crash today and withdrew from the meeting. Must be a doubt.

Great news we have Kyle back tho.

 

I can see a close match if it's RR for Sam.

 

Predictions??

 

I will go with 49-41.

Website says late decision will be made on Masters. Could be a banana skin match either way round.He rides but is not fit and we don't get many points from his rides. Alternatively we use r/r which means two rides have to be covered by our weak reserves.

Thanks, hadn't seen that yet. Dodgy either way then.

On current averages Thorsell, Schlein, Howarth and one reserve can take any r/r rides!!

Have they changed the rules for R/R?

 

surely R/R for Masters would be Thorsell, Schlein, Howarth and one of the reserves?

Whoops, not up to date with the current averages, had assumed Masters was 4th in the averages. In that case, not too bad if only 1 reserve ride

Looking at it I think it would be best for Sam to sit this one out and go with R/R

Well that was easier than I expected.

Somerset have been dreadful at Monmore twice now.

Don't think I've ever been so bored at a Wolves meeting before.

No fight, no effort. Very poor. Maybe Wolves were just on fire as well.

Worst crowd of the season, worst match at Monmore in a long time.

 

Wolves

 

FRED - only Heeps got close surprisingly but looked very quick too. 5/5

KYLE - how we have missed his contribution. Barely touched till heat 15 and even then rode hard and determined to get his paid max 5/5 MOTM

RORY - untouchable until heat 12 when he got out gated and then when chasing lost further ground by getting out of shape on bend 4. 4/5

JACOB - never looked like being touched. 5/5

SAM - who would have known he had a big crash yesterday? 2 quick heats. 3.5/5

ELLIS - I was ready to say he is clueless at Monmore but then picked himself up after an awkward fall in heat 14, out battled Kerr and then set after Hougaard. 1/5

NATHAN - he only scored in heat 2 but was battling in the other heats. Still the better reserve. 1.5/5

 

Rebels

 

Lawson - dreadful. Only beat perks. 0.5/5

Heeps - got better and quicker as the match went on. 2.5/5

Wright - disappointing. Didn't really look that interested either. 1.5/5

Hougaard - good when he gated which was once. 2/5

Allen - at least looked interested and rode well. Deserved more rides.3/5

Kerr - beat only reserves. Hardly remembered any of his heats he was that nondescript. 1.5/5

Grajczonek was a miss, thru injury in Poland.
