TTT Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 If Jenkins was the No.2 then Redcar would've been favourites to win everything next season imo. Will need to find a good replacement for Shanes after a few meetings to have a perfect 1-7. HL Trio is fantastic and nobody else will have a better top three imo, Edwards is a brilliant signing at reserve, Hume will only improve again and Mulford is a decent enough 2.00 pointer imo.

Decent 2nd string with the 3 heat leaders. Expand Hes had about 4-5 seasons at Birmingham won't be any improvement, he's more suited to grass and longtrack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boz Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Good looking side. Good top end, delighted to see Riss back. Hume is solid second string and Edwards should be one of top reserves in the league. Mulford looks to be one of the better 2 pointers, and was excellent up here in the Under 19 Final.

Danyon Hume should do well as back up to the big three. Jason Edwards will do a job at number six. James Shanes I never saw coming. Coming back from injury so may struggle a bit at first and may end up swapping with Edwards in the reserve berth. Jake mulford I saw last year at Kings Lynn in lewi's testimonial and he won the three reserve races and looked well tasty. If he rides like that for us he could be a awesome signing on a 2.00 average. Overall a interesting side packed with potential possible top four side if we steer clear of injuries....well done the bears management on putting a good side out...roll on 2023 Expand He actually won the first reserve race and then ran five lasts including some rides in the main meeting, but I agree he looked handy that day. As others have said handy looking team apart from Shanes. Edited December 3, 2022 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noelinho Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Looks a fun team. Looking forward to having them at Ashfield a couple of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 (edited) Not sure I get all the anti-Shanes comments. He averaged 4.74 from 12 matches, starts on 4.68. From some of the responses it's like they have signed Lewis Miller on Sam Masters' average! I'll admit I thought he would have done better after dropping to reserve at Birmingham (but not the easier number 7 spot) & is unlikely to up his average much. But I also see no reason why his average would drop, so a 4.7 rider at second string, or reserve if Edwards improves is a useful rider to have in the team imo.
