Edit: I’ve only just noticed, but has Cam got just a little bit TOO excited about the golf? Do you think he shanked it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hagonshocker Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Considering Heeps interest in golf I'd say he's Taylor Made for a reserve berth .... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said for me cam just isn’t good value even at reserve on that mark! ive got nothing against the lad and still think there’s bags of untapped potential in there, but in any sport raw talent only gets you so far, attitude, application and dedication to being the best athlete you can be play just as big a part of not bigger and for me he’s had several opportunities now and time and time again come up short. To be fair I remember going to mildenhall when he first came over as a 15 year old he was instantly a revelation yet 7 years on how far has he progressed? I would say at 15/16 he looked every bit as special as Robert lambert or dan Bewley and look at where they’ve taken their careers in half the time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friends/girlfriends and alcohol etc is what keeps a rider at standstill. Robert Lambert was relying purely on ability and looked to have hit a wall in progression. Thus until his time with Woffy in 2017 and during the 2017 winter break dedicated himself to health and fitness. What a change he was in 2018, a totally different rider. Speedway today is a different animal to the beer drinking socialising mayhem it used to be. To be at the top, you have to drop ya mates and train bloody hard. There are some very very talented young rider's in British Speedway but unfortunately they get to caught up in "having fun" outside Speedway rather than the dedication needed to try and be the best they can be. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Im sure I read somewhere that Woofy is doing the WA meetings this year Perhaps that could inspire Cam to review his approach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89buttons Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Woffinden to me is probably the most skilful and talented rider in the world currently and has been the last few years - but it’s everything else that’s made him a 3 time world champ, lost count of how many times I’ve heard him say in interviews I know no one is working harder than I am off the bike to be the best he can be on the bike! All the top guys work so hard to maximise their potential and make any tiny little gain they can to help give them an edge, matej Zagar for example is a reserve in the Slovenian special forces - each winter he spends a couple of months training in the forest with them - a far cry from an Australian beach and cooler full of beer!

89buttons Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Side note, Ryan Douglas back in the uk next year 2017 champ average is 6.12 so converts to 4.08 in Prem, has always been pretty useful round Foxhall think he could certainly do a good job on that average at reserve.

Pretty useful at Foxhall.... he did score a max whilst guesting for the Witches so must be in with a shout ala Dakota North! but don't think he's completed his last 2 meetings there... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89buttons Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Ok how about rory Schlein 7.92 bwd 5.27 danny king 6.36 scott nicholls 6.48 troy batchelor 7.69 nico covatti 4.70 ryan Douglas 4.08 42.5 exact! Note this is with Danny and Scott being eligible for the 2.5% reduction, I’m still not entirely sure if they are or not! would be a superb team at Foxhall and have a strong reserve pair all year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Nicholls(no NL/CL), definitely King(CL) and possibly BWD(NL) & Schlein(CL) if it is all riders as originally announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
