I don’t think the two in question would have any trouble hitting the ground running and some.

Certainly couldn't be anyworse than Jayden O'Malley in 2012.

Possible the worse rider I've seen in The Stripes in 54 years of watching.

Michael Penfold trumps that

Heck yes. I forgot about him. 

He was so bad my memory banks must have wiped all traces of him.

Don't think he even averaged 0.5 points in half dozen meetings.

Jayden O'Malley 1.73 (2.09 with bonus) from 27 matches.

Harley Horwood 2.69 (2.82) from 15

Michael Penfold 0.47 from 5

I guess as long as the occasional Darcy Ward / Nick Morris comes along, new Aussies will often get chances!

Why O'Malley was even given 27 matches is beyond me.

Or Billy Rae at Coatbridge in 1975

1975..Coatbridge..5..11..4..1..1.82

or some German bloke called Egon Muller in 1973 who amassed 1 point from 7 rides in 2 meetings for an 0.57 ave in 1973?

I suppose we could blame John Wilson's spare bike for that as we all know what Egon went onto on his own machinery

Has everyone forgotten Joey Ringwood? Or was he better? Dixie couldn’t half pick them (though he also found Nick Morris and Josh Grajczonek)

Ringwood deserved a second season IMO, he was better than the others around this era but not to be.
