Struggle to make play offs that team imo. Might be good at home but see very few points away from home. Kennet on inflated average if look at 2021 form, Andersen didn't look like a no.1 in championship to me, and a long tail away from home. Should improve on 2021 though so all can ask from any team is progress.

Agree only the 2 Danes will score decent ISH away from home & Barker if he's the last 1 will get the odd decent score of around 7 & maybe a 1 off of a 10+ score !! If his equipment is on song

Kennett at No 1 - he didn't look like one when I went to Eastbourne earlier in the year. To be fair, I did read that her perked up a bit but when I saw him he wasn't race fit by a mile.

Probably found it difficult to get motivated when he wasn't being paid.

Riding order in terms of averages.

Seems solid enough to me.

 

1. Ed Kennet

2. Alfie Bowtell

3. Michael Palm Toft

4. Ben Barker

5. Hans Andersen

6. Dan Gilkes

7. Henry Atkins

If that is the lineup it serves two purposes. First of all it’s a better lineup than last season. More balanced. And secondly, they will be hard to beat at home. Which is what their fans want to see. Their team winning. Mid table imo. Not a title winning side but heading the right way.

Yes not bad their heat leaders go well at Poole too but lower order looks a bit weak.

Wow best to ask his former gaffer that 1 & he must've been on some coin when guesting for moneybags Glasgow if that's anything to go by 

According to Justgotmecpc he did, I think he's got a bit confused i,m talking about Kennett and he for some reason thinks its barker :blink:

Kennett was dreadful last year at No1 even before the Jordon debacle and just about held his own in the middle order, imagine Plymouth will be looking to get Andersen and MPT at 1and 5 asap.

Possibly I read it as Kennett who has never guested for us.

From memory Barker was better at ashfield with Newcastle this season than in his 2 guest appearances. Passed cookie as I remember

I find it strange for Plymouth to nurture ruml and cook as assets and then not continue to use them subsequently. 
although I’m sure cook has been tapped up by Poole 

I agree - Ruml was riding quite well at the end of the season and looked like he could have been a decent prospect, I can only assume Ruml and the last riders average don’t fit or maybe he didn’t fancy returning. It looks a more balanced team than last season
