My opinion on this team injury free is top 4 comfortably. End of season average prediction as follows 1. Masters 7.35 (=) 2. Morris 5.38 (+1.00) 3. Schlein 6.65 (-1.00) 4. Becker 5.27 (+1.00) 5. Thorsell 7.33 (+0.50) 6. Douglas 4.66 (+1.50) 7. Nicol 4.00 (+1.00) Ave: 40.64 (44.64) All this chat about Lindgren, Hancock etc is absolutely hilarious to think Wolves fans think it's even possible. Its hilarious to think nicol will go upto 5 and douglas 6.16, nicol will do well to maintain his average and douglas if stays at reserve 5.50 tops and add to that schlein down a pt i somehowe doubt that he will stay around 7pt average.

Don’t know how it’s hilarious tho. The bottom 3 have great potential to improve. More than probably any of the other 6 teams bottom 3 when announced. The bottom end is fine (although I’d agree Nicholls for Nicol would be an even better option on paper) it’s just if the top 2 are staying the same is the biggest issue as to why we are building 2 points below the limit.

I think you've pinned too much into either Freddie or Hancock agreeing a deal. It's looking like that won't happen now so just the consequence of building a certain way.

Schlein retires this season, I just don't see him going all out. High 5's in the averages at best for me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJWolves Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 I think its far more hilarious to think that Wolves will go into next season with a team weaker than last season and two points below the points limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it happens it happens. I’m sure Wolves fans will find out more on Tuesday anyway. It could be an interesting talk in one way or another. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I really do think they will be in the playoffs, and a surprise or two when the seasons running?? Riddiculas to think success is finishing 4th in a 7 team League. To run a top 4 play off system the league needs 10 teams so we get 4 actual good teams in the play offs . You can't take a 4 team play off system with a 7 team league seriously. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finishing 1st to 4th at the end of the season is the first success. Makes no difference if that’s 1st or 4th tho. Sweden and Poland don’t have much bigger league systems yet those are measured a success. Sweden ran a season with only 7 teams in recent years. In an ideal world we would have 10 - 12 teams in each league plus a proper system for ensuring the next generation have a proper education system towards the top tier. We can all dream tho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never understood this thought process. Both Sweden and Poland have ran with 7 team leagues, the 2 strongest nations in this sport, with absolutely no issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebv Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 It could be argued having four from seven will keep the season 'alive' for most of the clubs... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCookie Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 So why does Lindgren's website have a section for his SGB Premiership team with TBA written in? Has it been there since he left or is it a new thing? Does it mean anything? Interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure his website has been neglected for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beowulf Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Although it's the talk-in tonight no way will they reveal the final 3 riders, except perhaps Becker. They will want to announce these things on their own website instead on social media by fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope I can make it tonight but might not be there till late so might just skip it if I can’t be there 8ish. Hopefully someone will put some info on tho anyway.

I just hope it's not going to be the big letdown most of us think it's going to be. Looking on the bright side, at least it will save me a few bob.

So far i heard that Hancock has been spoken too as the main news that’s filtered out so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
