lbw Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 (edited) Workington will be hoping that there are no bugs in the system that plagued them last week as they will need to be at full strength, get well soon Tate, as the Pirates are in town. Don't think any of the Pirates have ridden Northside and it's my understanding that even Richard Lawson hasn't had a skid around there. This could prove to be a bit of a leveller as Craig Cook, Troy Batcherlor and co have had plenty of laps to get to know the best lines and set ups. I'm personally very impressed with the set up at Northside having visited there once last season. Looking forward to this first ever clash between these 2 sides at the new venue.

topaz325 Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 A real tough meeting for the Comets with a powerhouse top four of Lawson, Brennan , Z cook and B Cook with great backing form Hagon, hopefully the Comets will have a new rider in place before the weekend and Batch is fully fit.....heart says 47-43 ...head 43-47.

scaramanga Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 (edited) sam hagon rode a few times and is pritty good round northside Also sure vinnie food rode last year aswell so with our poor reserves makes it even tougher for comets northside is not a track that new riders need to have a few meetings to learn so should be no trouble for poole if comets do sign a new rider before hand rather than r/r then that rider has big shoes to fill Edited July 23 by scaramanga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 (edited) Tough match for Workington, fancy Poole to win, which will hurt Comets play-offs chances. Edited July 23 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Glad it’s on BSN. Going to be tough for Pirates with only the reserves having any track experience. Expecting Workington to take a decent early lead before Pirates get their setups sorted and come back into it. The shape of the track shouldn’t be an issue for Lawson, Brennan and Ben Cook.

Neila Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Think Tom Brennen has had a practice session at northside, also think he was down with the youth academy at the beginning of the season along with Sam hagon and vinnie frood who have also ridden northside Will be interesting to see how many pilot fans make the northern tour, compared to how many comets fans were on the southern tour Info for lbw no flat whites serverd just comets lager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelShoe Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Think I would use Kyle at 2, and on balance leave Antti at 3 and Claus at 4 to help counter Ben Cook in 12 and Zach in heat 14 . Comets need a much stronger performance from Claus than recent scores if Comets are to get the points. Poole consistently strong at the back end of meetings with Lawson and Ben Cook in 13 and 15 . Redcar were 6 points up last Friday going into heat 12 but a tac sub helped the Pirates post 3 x 5-1's and a 4-2 in the last 4 heats to win by 8. Good gates will be paramount for sure as the Pirates are slick. UTC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
