Jaizer Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 R/R swing it massively in Poole's favour imo, both versions! Be hoping danyon hits his Poole form and will have 3 form riders to take the rides 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expect Danny and Charles to score the majority of the points and Poole second strings and reserves to out score their opposite numbers. Would have purchased the stream but there is a reasonably important football game going on and I suspect a few Bears fans will be more focused on that. Make that 16 now with R/R in operation.

If you have a convo with him, he will speak to you like he's your bff. Craig Watson was the same as well 13 minutes ago, Jaizer said: R/R swing it massively in Poole's favour imo, both versions!

Unlike Plymouth last night, Redcar don't have a lot of guest options available for today. Puts a lot of pressure on to Bailey and Edwards imo. One of them needs to get 7+ Edit - scratch that. They pretty much had no guest options as Rory guesting for Edinburgh! Anyone else would have been quite far below Riss ave so maybe thought r/r better option.

On the plus side for Redcar most if not all their riders go well at Poole although Danyon hasn't been in the best of form lately and they have a weakness at reserve with Mulford , I would imagine Edwards will be very busy.

Yes I would agree there especially going with r/r whereas r/r for Poole some would view as a bonus as both Cooks can be used. Hopefully we can rack up a decent score to defend on Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffo Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 Poole 55 - 35 and that is being kind to the bears. Without riss or a decent guest this cup tie is all but over before it starts.....sorry to put a downer on it fellow bears fans !! We will not make up 20 points on Saturday not a cat in hells chance !! Charles and Danny will have to go virtually unbeaten at Poole to stand any chance. Jason quite capable of scoring seven points but doubt whether hume, Bailey and mulford will score seven between them....massive shame to get this far and hand to tie to Poole on a plate !!! Would love to be proved wrong but can't see anything other than a big home win tonight ! Utb anyway !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wright and King good for 12 each. So that's 24. Hume is good at Poole, so say about 7. That's 31. Plus say 7 for Edwards, that's 38. Haven't done anything for Bailey yet, as hasn't had the best of time at Poole , although he can do it as I think one of the Poole Vs Glasgow meetings in 2021 went something like 0,0,0,3. So just needs King to give him some advice on where best to ride and could be good for 3-5 points. So say Bailey 4 and that would make it 42. But... ....I'm really bad at predictions!!

Biffa Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 I expect Danny to have 7 rides tonight, regular 4, 1x R/R, 1x heat 15 & 1x tac sub. Charles 6 rides, no tac sub. That is hopefully 30 points from their rides. Meaning we have to manage our R/R & tac sub tactically & ruthlessly. Not a total lost cause I hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) King and Wright can both take r/r so they could score 27-30 points between them!! I think it'll be a lot closer than many think with or without Riss. Depends how the track is as its a different track curator covering for Terry - its been very different for the 2 recent home meetings> For Saturday the Bears guest could be anyone up to 8.65 to cover for Riss!! Cook, Schlein, Sedgman, Nicholls, R.Worrall???? take your pick (that assumes no one from the other semi final is eligible?!)

Cook, Schlein, Sedgman, Nicholls, Basso, R.Worrall???? take your pick Yeah Riss got 11 at Poole last season, so hard to cover for. Also different weather for last two meetings as well.

I'd be surprised if you can use one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
