More conspiracy theory's So Sheffield signed Vissing knowing he would get injured so that he couldn't ride for us and we could have guests its a shame we didn't know how Tai would be injured, we could have warned him to be more careful at Cardiff, then we would still have him riding for us, need a new crystal ball obviously 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be difficult to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 With rain in the air it opens up another potential test for the regs I believe the team trailing at heat 10 can request the match be be curtailed if conditions are poor, the team leading cannot So what if Wolves are leading by 8 after 10 - can Sheffield request it called as the team trailing in the meeting or is it the aggregate score More and more it seems what the regs don't say is taken as most important as opposed to what they do say - it could be vital if the above were to occur.......

Winning it in a Grand final makes it so much bigger, great crowds, great atmospheres, you can't beat it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
