Not exactly high class opposition to call it a brilliant performance, but not bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s come on so much in a year which is probably what I should have put. We tend to give riders time which is why we reap the benefits. Zach, Adam to name two.

Sidney the robin Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 On 8/8/2018 at 8:07 PM, foreverblue said: Brilliant against sub standard opposition Expand He is a rider making great strides last year he had a terrible spleen injury so this year it has taken him time to get to the form that he wanted.He is a rider who should be in Swindon's plans for the next five years and i would hate for us to do all the groundwork with Zach then for someone else to get the just rewards.Zach,Rowe,Nielsen are all riders who hopefully have a future at Swindon but come the play/offs if we get there i would fancy Zach at home against most reserves i really enjoy watching Zach making progress everyweek. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 A routine home win for the Robins but there still looks a vulnerable look to the side.Adam,Zach,Tobi, David were all really solid.The track held up ok in the end and seeing that the meeting did not start until after 8 the meeting was pushed through pretty promptly.For Leicester Hans ( when he rolled and gated) was decent Scott was great value Dave Howe was very good always in the mix they all did well.Also though he didn't score many points i thought Connor Mountain for a NL rider was always on the pace and being at number six against the likes of Bellego,Ellis,Musielak was difficult i think the lad can make progress. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
