Sidney the robin Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 Would Josh Auty or Claus Vissing be a better bet to Wells,Berge,Kurtz.At Swindon if we put young Rowe in i would be happy to be against the calibre of Berge , Wells, Kurtz. Todd i have seen guest a few times at Prem level and no way he is good anough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I agree with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 17 hours ago, Andrew said: Nick Morris would just fit along with those two. With 13 and abit points for three rider, I'd go 7,3,3 and not worry about reserve strength! Absolutely the correct logic for any team building.

Vissing was last year at Swindon he scored vital points at the tail end of the season.If the track is back to its Owlerton best Auty can battle around there and lets be honest Wells, Berge, Kurtz none of them are world beaters.

No i am not but that level of rider Anders could pick up a few points against them here and there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king junior Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 So Todd it is. I do hope he ends up our number 7 as he should do the business for us there around Owlerton. He's probably been saddled with an average just above what I'd expect of him in this league, but with Todd you've got a rider who can really pull it out of the bag at home and beat riders you wouldn't expect him to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know why you keep banging on about Anders Rowe riding in the PL, other than the fact that Rosco has dug himself a hole with the Swindon tail. Anders is not eligible due to not having achieved the converted 3 point average and he’s not ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you certain that the rule has not been changed? also it would be a learning curve for him for the future.Dug himself a hole? Rosco!!!! total nonsense the four named so far i am chuffed with and if the lower end riders are a problem we can address that if needed.By the way still waiting for your 1/7??? seeing you know better/NOT than Alun/Lee.

I'm pretty sure that. at the last STAARS meeting Damien Bates said that the start time would be 7:30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t know the ruling on that for next season. They have dropped the 1 over 8 rule already so nothing is definite yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlieboy Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 Thought this was the SHEFFIELD thread ? Who cares if anders Rowe rides for Swindon or not . Damon bates did say 7-30 start time at last weeks meeting . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably been saddled with an average just above what I'd expect of him in this league, but with Todd you've got a rider who can really pull it out of the bag at home and beat riders you wouldn't expect him to. Todd's been fantastic at home wherever he has ridden at Championship level (Newport, Plymouth, Somerset & Sheffield) When he first came over and entered Newport's team - i never would have thought he'd have gone on to ride the OTA and Owlerton anywhere near as well - as he rode Newport & Plymouth. I think he's shown a lot of application and determination to do that & certain other tracks (Peterborough) springs to mind - where he's been fantastic in the last few seasons. Lack of racing and predominantly riding at number 2 for most of his career in 2nd division hasn't helped. As everyone knows he's likely to struggle away, simply because that is what his weakness has always been since riding over here and for that reason probably not going to achieve his converted average. But at home, i think he is certainly capable of beating a number of riders on his home track in the Premiership. I think it's great that (whatever the reasons behind it) Simon has decided to have a bit of continuity & that Sheffield have given him a chance at this level.
