No doubt would still score 31+, but I'd always take a number 8 if using r/r 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is because Zach had some poor meetings, both Cooks did, probably one of the reasons we didn't do better in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could get 7 days if withholding his services. Happened before that CL riders have had CL bans for missing NDL fixtures. Will be interesting what the reason given is. Based on updates would seem he was expected Apparently not, as BV didn't use a facility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said in the past I remember Georgie Wood as an example being banned for not turning up for an IOW meeting. Others including Alcock.

The NDL is just a haven for older riders want to play on their bike these days.It will be intersting to see how much of the young talent( and there are some good ones) actually make to riding in the Premiership in GB in the future though.Whole system needs a revamp IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average wise yes it mayb highest but realistically not alot of improvement look at flint for example stronger all round alot more improvement than kemp just my opinion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 I think Kemp's performances are measured against the yardstick of his first season at Sheffield when he was sixteen, unfortunately he hasn't hit those heights since despite joining two clubs this year who are strong at home and where you thought he might flourish. Riders develop at different rates of course but he just doesn't look like he is going to fulfill his potential unfortunately which is a great pity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that if Brennan and Basso couldn't ride at Poole for whatever reason and their replacements only scored 10 between them, some would say it wasn't fair and that if those two had ridden they would have got at least 20 between them which would have changed the whole tie around which would have been a very reasonable point of view. I didn't expect much from Tom as he never rides well at Poole, no idea why but I suppose some tracks suit some riders better than others. Basso on the other hand has always ridden the track well but he struggled too which was very strange,maybe bike issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Tom Brennan, as his career progresses he will certainly improve at Poole. I remember a young Chris Harris struggling for several seasons to get a grip of Wimborne Road and always flattering to deceive. Today, when in the right mood and with his bikes working, he can be untouchable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best bikes probably in Poland for SGP2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
