Hands off, he's ours

Trouble is when interviewed at Peterborough where he guested against Swindon,he stated that he preferred bigger tracks.Suppose his scores at Monmore and at other tracks backs up his logic.

But he also said that riding at monmore has made him a better rider

Interestingly he has always gone well at Foxhall - obviously can’t say if it’s a favourite of his or not but has always gone well there

He said he came to Wolves to help him ride smaller and tighter tracks, but is enjoying his time with Wolves.

He will go wherever he wants and suits him best next season. I’m sure he will probably have every top flight club after him.

No reason why he wouldn’t stay at Wolves either.

Find me a better rider on his average.

Bewley might be someone that benefits from riding a smaller track to improve his skills. 

You could well be correct, but I can't think of any of the current world's best riders improving their skills at smaller tracks, even Tai left to better his world title chances.

Dan’s ability shone from the word go.... track size made no difference..

 He oozes talent....

Dan has had to overcome a mammoth injury this year and no doubts he gave it everything he could.

He is the best rider I have seen since the emergence of Peter Collins

Early ending season for us this year so need to make sure that doesnt happen again. 

 

I think this will be the nucleus of the team. Then just fill in the blanks

 

Fricke 8.81

Kurtz 7.54

Bewley 6.31

Lidsey 5.16

 

Assuming limit will stick at 42.50 it leaves 14.68 for 3 riders

 

Do we go top heavy or get good reserves. 

 

I'd take hans on a 5.79 average and possibly keep Etheridge 4.35 leaving 4.54 for the final rider (jordan stewart maybe)

 

Fricke

Kurtz

Bewley

Hans

Lidsey

Etheridge

Stewart

 

 

Yep add Allen and Holder (jackass) and call it team aus,get rid of lemon  (withdrawal depression away from max)and start winning trophies

Not bothered what nationalities lemon picks. If it's more Aussies then fine by me. 

 

Fricke 

Lidsey 

C holder

Bewley

B kurtz

Bickermouse

Ayres

I think the comparison is unfair. Dan Bewley has improved his skills riding on the speedway tracks around Europe , whilst Darcy Ward "honed his" by riding around Aussie streets dodging the local police.:D

Tai became World Champion in 2013 when he was Wolves top man, so you are incorrect.  This kind of thinking does annoy me a little. Wolves world champions also include Ole Olsen and Sam Ermolenko, it didn't do them any harm (and Hans Nielsen spent his first 4 years there). What you learn on a small track is throttle control and how to turn a bike quickly and easily. Both of these skills are handy on big tracks.

Not having a go at you Hyderd, you are generally one of most reasonable posters.

True, Nikki Pedersen won his 3 World Titles whilst riding at Eastbourne and always said riding there and places like Wolves improved his ability on larger tracks.
