No I am not comparing the 2 ability wise, just effort wise. I'd much rather be way below the limit and have someone like Broc Nicol or Paco Castagna instead of Josh Bates Add Kyle Newman or Adam Roynon to that list too Would love embo in the team as it is tho I can't see it any time soon which is a shame 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, now we have 2 very strong reserves, whereas, no offence, it's a couple years too early for Archie... I know he's the local hero, but if we keep signing weak riders, we're never going to win anything... And the fans will never return, it's a business at the end of the day I'm sure if George is not pulling his weight by the mid point of the season, Rob isn't going to take any prisoners... Just got to hope if it does come to that, that BWD doesn't walk too... Just hope George can score his average home & away & from what I've seen on video I can't see why not as he can trap & looks hard to pass..

But I get what you say .. But he seems a fiery rider so let's see how he does when he arrives & sees brough for the 1st time !! I'm sure he'll have plenty help off big Bruce cribb with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 3 teams that haven't declared yet and they will also need riders. Let's see if they can get the about 8 point riders over the line. We shall see.

lbw Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 (edited) https://youtu.be/wB-RHM2ZJmw Congreve looks a great prospect. The opposition wasn't up to much in this meeting with Terry-Daley being a recognisable name. He was on the pace with BWD though, in one race Congreve passed a couple then kept up with BWD. That said, the track in NZ was totally different to wot he will face at Brough Park. Hope George adapts well & helps Newcastle build on their future.

Jaizer Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 If you follow what we've been doing up here you'll need to wear it everywhere in pub apart from when sitting at your table.

The way it's starting to rage again ( COVID ) I wouldn't be surprised if it's either cancelled or a low attendance .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
