waco Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Georgie Wood was in fantastic form for EASTBOURNE on sunday but the rest of the team.will need to be at the races to get anything at Cradley..Hopeing for a good safe meeting for all the riders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Wood in great form comes up against Clegg who is non too shabby recently either so should be worth the admission there. Smith hasn't settled this season yet but is no chump and Morley knows his way round Monmore. Halsey & Harris should have the bettering of their opposite numbers whilst the IOW reserves look more potent by being steady and Davies looking like he would struggle to win a raffle at present. The great predicto say "Cradley win but IOW take a point" (which means its likely to be anything other than that outcome). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike0310 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Widman again shocking I’m not an iow fan but surely he’s got to go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waco Posted July 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Good effort. From the IOW everyone except Widman getting good points,although looks like Woods had. Bike problems again,you have to ask why it happens so often..with a bit of luck the lads could have won this one....score 47-43..Well done to Max Clegg on his 15 point max for Cradley...

waco Posted July 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 I see IOW have signed Scott CAmpos to replace Ryan Terry Daly..WHAT !!!!!!! surely it is Widman that needs replacing...the mind boggles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike0310 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Campos has been riding for my team and with all due respect terry Daley is by far the better rider,the Isle of Wight have a very good promotion but that reputation may take a hit by getting rid of Ryan and keeping widman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave1075 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 They can’t fit in Campos for Widman as the numbers don’t fit. It’s harsh on Terry Daley but with due respect Campos is a better rider around Smallbrook. The next move the Warriors should make is bring in Leek for Widman. Too many blanks for Widman to justify him staying in the team. The way Leek has ridden the season warrants giving him a go. The lad is a trier & sometimes over does it but a least he gives it a go.

dave1075 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 The Warriors 1 to 7 could be before averages change. 1. Georgie Wood. 9.28 2. McCauley Leek. 2.86 3. Scott Campos. 4.50 4. Danno Verge. 4.83 5. Ben Morley. 9.13 6. Connor King. 2.00 7. Chad Wirtzfield. 2.00 TOTAL. 34.60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel sorry for RTD, on his rides at Plymouth this season he has been far better than Campos. Riders must wonder what will happen next to them with all the changes going on :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckerroo Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Its all about the tracks, terry daley is crap at the iow and campos is quite ok. A sensible change 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander15 Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Campos is much better at Smallbrook than RTD. Whilst RTD has been nothing special this season and his average has dropped by half a point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waco Posted July 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 No one is saying Campos is not a good change for Daly he is.....But in all fairness Widman should have been replaced first..how must Daly feel when far and away the worst rider in the team is still there.....? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTD has spent yet another season going nowhere and blocking up a team place, im not the greatest fan of Campos and feel riders like him are dragging the NL down but you can't argue that he is better value on his average and shouldn't be tailed off round the Island like Ryan. As for Widman (who cost the Island more points and should be aware of it) its a tough call as until new averages come out another 2 pointer cannot be signed to replace him. At present the best options are Tedham, Kean Dicken or Josh Embleton as riders with an average over 2.00. However im starting to feel that Warriors fans would back anyone and even support them if they were scoring the same as long as the effort was there and improvement being shown.

Sings4Speedway Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 I actually predicted this one right for once. You have to feel that Cradley would have been more of a force this season with Brennan still in the side as Smith seems very subdued and i really thought Harris would kick on especially at home but he appears to be going nowhere. Hats off to Sheldon for winning heat 2 after i predicted he couldn't win a coin toss. Fingers crossed the return match on the Island is just as close/entertaining.

MattJ81 Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Agreed re Brennan Sings, he I think would have been a real force and the partnership with Clegg already looked good by the time he was ruled out - they would have probably dragged the team over the line in closer meetings with Heats 13 + 15. On that average I don't think there was anyone else available who would have done the same job, Jack Smith will score decent points but isn't going to trouble Clegg for the number 1 spot as I think Brennan may have done. I really like Luke Harris and he looks ready to push onto heat leader level in many ways but isn't quite making the jump as yet. He was steady last night and was probably expecting to win Heat 14 but got outjumped by Verge and maybe tried a little too hard to pass him leading to him coming to grief. He has been steady in most meetings I have seen this season (admittedly all at home so far) but needs more heat wins rather than minor placings. Dan Halsey looked much more comfortable last night and deserved the Heat 15 nomination, where he looked good but slipped off sadly. Sheldon Davies looked more competitive than Lewis Whitmore which is all he needs to do in reality. Still not sure we'll make the playoffs but the 4 point win at Mildenhall may make the difference if we can pick up wins against Stoke and Plymouth in the next 2 home meetings The result last night would have been a lot closer had Georgie Wood not suffered 2 engine failures in decent positions but it's another one chalked off I guess 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
