Im flying back Wednesday especially for this one

Hopefully we can thump the pussycats and move on

Think it will be tougher to do than say however so just want the win even if only by a point

I hope Drew has a good meeting but don't expect to much to soon his main objective is to go out and enjoy it.He is a real prospect and can't wait to keep an eye on his development.This league is very tough and with the way the teams are structured often having good reserves it just shows how Mountain/Hume(before injury) were punching above there weight other team members let them down.Apart from Bacon who has had a great season Mountain/Hume and now Kemp will do as well as the other two pointers.

If Drew can possibly take a point off one of the panthers reserves it's job done. Although very much on the pace, I think it's a lot for Drew to be banging in points until half way through next season, although I'm sure he will pick as a few this season. 

As for the meeting as a whole I will be using my rain off ticket like most others. Expecting a good close meeting, result could be down to the guests we use for Danny and Rory.

It's a must win, but I still don't think it will help as I can't see us winning our 2 away meetings.

Hmmm, I think the result of this one could hinge on which Adam Ellis turns up on the night. Lakeside have visited twice and he's got 13+1pts from 5 rides and 6pts from 6 rides. If it's the 2nd one we could have problems even winning. 

Good luck to Drew, I'm sure if he picks up a few points it'll do his confidence the world of good at this level.

Can't believe we are using R/R on Thursday, haven't they learnt anything. All the other meetings we have a guest for Danny and now we have our top two out we only get one guest. Is there anything in the rules that only allows one guest.

Fueltaps is your man to answer your query, however I think you can only have 1 guest:unsure:

It would be possible, in extremis, for a CL team to run with seven guests!

absent No 1 (by average) - guest

absent No 2 - guest

absent No 3 - guest

absent no 4 doubling up for other team - guest

absent no 5 doubling up for other team - guest

absent reserve - guest

absent reserve - guest

Clearly absurd, but as per Art 18.8 of the rulebook.

So maybe we a going for the slightly cheaper option of no guest but rr.  Since it is rr, who is the number 8?  what's that...we haven't got one I here you say.  

We should thought have enought for a win, providing no one gets injured or falls ill or anything like that. I think the panthers will fancy them selves for a point though.

Neil has beaten me to it (was still enjoying the last few rays of sun by the pool :D)

Perfectly thorough and correct as per usual (a much better source than myself anyway :t:)
