Team is all sorted and so far just one person has got it correct. Certainly will have an Australian feel to it 

Now Perks is signed, beginning to think the Howarth rumour was wrong. The only one who hasn't said Howarth was Mr Bump who said Proctor for Howarth & included Hume , Mountain & Lawlor.  He said Morris, Douglas, Proctor, Perks, Mountain, Hume, Lawlor. 

Hope it's not right,  seems a bit weak.

So do Morris & Howarth fit with the Thompsons at reserve?

Looks like a mid to late April start to the season then.

Looks like morris and Howarth both fit in at 15.35 and you have 15.61 available,if thats the last 2 riders thats gotta go straight in as title favourites a very strong team indeed no pressure on the 2 youngsters.

Disappointed for Connor Mountain though, thought he was excellent this year. He will be a useful addition for someone next season.

Cant blame leicester for going the way they look like going with strong top 5 as need 2 cover for the youngsters,at the end of the day its a numbers game unfortunately...

Trying not to get carried away, but if Morris and Howard are nailed on, this team excites me. As young as they are, I don't see the twins dropping many points to opposing reserves at home and anything they pick up away will be a bonus. If their progress is anything like last season it is difficult to see who could stop the Lions.

Better version of what Somerset attempted last season. However needs 4 out of the top 5 to fire every week, strong side but cannot carry any passengers.

I hope that Proctor can get his shoulder properly fixed this winter

Thompsons confirmed and its a bold bold move from both parties. Certainly won't be the worst reserves in the league but could fall victim to strength in depth squads. A lot rides on these two young riders and as they progress and age they need to start being viewed as individuals and judged on their own merits accordingly.
