My recollection is that there were two riders that caught Stewart Dickson’s attention at the same time, Jayden O’Malley and Mason Campton. Of the two, Jayden was performing better in Australia but Stewart needed someone to balance an O’Malley and who better than a Mason? The out-turn is best forgotten!

Mason was a little patchy to start but improved and sadly more so when he moved to The Comets. Think Mason finished with a respectable 5+ average.

Vissing also fits with the young Aussie as does the 5 point Aussie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose we could blame John Wilson's spare bike for that as we all know what Egon went onto on his own machinery Neil asked him if he had brought handlebars with him, he replied he had many bikes with different bars so it wasn't a problem. His excuse for his poor return?..........That's right the handlebars didn't suit him. Still, he was a brilliant rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchell was thought to be the most promising but it turned out to be Josh! Mitch was very very unlucky with injuries, every time he seemed to get a run of form got another very nasty injury. Think Edinburgh fans might say the same. But you're right when they arrived wasn't much between them at all. Mitch started in main body and josh at reserve so take from that what you will lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 I've gotta say I think Complin in underrated, which I can understand as his rolling average finished at 3.18 & he has to come in on a 4.00 ave. However that doesn't tell the whole story. Complin's average for all fixtures (Newcastle, Plymouth & as a guest) is 3.60 take off his fixtures at Brough Park (which were far below his away scores) as he'll not have to return there and it goes up to 4.32!
