So you could only use him as a guest then? Is NBJ signed as a replacement for Richie? As he is under BV's green sheet averages. Expand Etheridge and NBJ his team mates riding for BV and Flint for Wolves. And yes I believe NBJ is a temporary replacement for Richie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Wolves should win at home as well but I just worry whether they can cover for Morris with R/R considering Douglas isn't half as good around Monmore as he is on the big tracks. Morris is good for 10+ around Monmore. S. Worrall and Brennan should go much better around Monmore than the NSS as they're more suited to the technical tracks imo.

Etheridge moved up and now can’t even beat the reserves he was beating comfortably before. After going on how good Lawson is, he been poor today, else Wolves lead could be even bigger!

Expand Aye he’s been absolutely abysmal for Berwick this season. Unless it was just purely an availability issue for BV I find it difficult to understand why he was brought in.

Expand Looking at Nick's last 4 home scores, you could well be right 13, 5, 13, 14 The 5 was vs Peterborough. One of the 13's was vs BV. It might be closer but Wolves should have enough to do it. Surprised Worrall is struggling a bit but apparently he isn' t gating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawson a track specialist and ridden the track the last 2 weeks, Wolves lot stronger and can see them winning by 10 at NSS. Expand Morris at least scored 3 times as much last time. At least this dispels the theory that Lawson is a NSS track specialist. would have been a much larger victory with Nick in the side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acef Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 Decent speedway meeting. BV with only 4 riders were always going to struggle. I can see it being closer tonight tbf. Bewley will be one of the top 5 riders in the world when he starts to gate consistently. Great track craft and now has some top class equipment. Riding in Poland alongside Tai has brought him forward a million steps. A shame we likely won’t see him in this country next season. Wolves we’re solid through and tho I felt BV had more top end firepower, it didn’t show with Kurtz who had some bad luck if we are being honest. Felt the score would have been closer otherwise. Wright was much improved and seems to be coming into some form before these play offs. BVs issue is clear, the brothers are nowhere near at it and until they sort it out we have no chance. Wolves at a canter for the league IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand 12+1 for Kings Lynn last week, maybe Lawson doesn't like Wolves and couldn't be bothered for you lol, or maybe he just had a bad day like some other riders. Morris 4 last time, might not have even scored 4 today who knows. NBJ was as poor as we knew he would have been, terrible signing, would have been better off with R/R. Etheridge was unbeaten after 3 riders last week, today didn't beat an opponent. Douglas was the star for Wolves, but he won't score like that tonight at Monmore.

mikebv Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 Well Lawson made a huge difference didn't he? Good job Morris didn't ride as they would have got three or four more... Dan Bewley v The Opposition... Becoming a bit of common theme that isn't it? Seems to score circa 35%, and more, of the points each match... Good job they have got him... As they cannot rely on anyone else... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
