GiveusaB Posted May 31, 2023 Report Share Posted May 31, 2023 I love Paco's enthusiasm and charisma...'typical' Italian ! He would be a perfect replacement for Nielsen (long term...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here: https://www.edinburghmonarchs.co.uk/news-centre/article/2023-05-31/stellar-monarchs-make-team-changes Don't know much about the Dane, but if recommended by Hans Nielsen must have a lot of potential! Lasse at reserve a plus also imo. Edited May 31, 2023 by lisa-colette 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endeavour Posted May 31, 2023 Report Share Posted May 31, 2023 Sorry to see young Jacob dropped. Kye and Paco have been poor this season so really need to step up. Monarchs going to continue with guests for Josh. Apart from Richie Worrall they haven’t been that great. Personally think Paco and Kye should be split up. Paco at 2.

allthegearbutnaeidea Posted May 31, 2023 Report Share Posted May 31, 2023 Signing Borke is all well and good, but if you can’t find a rider to score a single point on a 2, it’s pointless, Borke/Fredriksen might get a point or two more than Fredriksen/Hook, but if you don’t have a 7th rider, you’re losing the 2/3 that Bickley was getting most weeks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta agree with you in that one. If they'd got Sam Hagon as their 2.00 rider, would have been worth the change, as it is I'm not convinced they're any stronger Edited May 31, 2023 by szkocjasid 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's better stop gap 2 pointers instead of nl reserves that would of probs accepted a couple meetings, strange choice by Edinburgh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble was Bickley and Hook both have near 4pt averages so didnt have points too play with after signing Borke.IMO Bickley did struggle at Home to get 2-3 points most weeks Edited May 31, 2023 by Fromafar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, I'd assumed was doing NDL now that commonwealth riders were allowed to compete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
