AndiCapp Posted November 19 Report Share Posted November 19 2 hours ago, Marksman said: I heard that Etheridge is signing for Edinburgh? I’m guessing the Comets are going for two 5 point riders. Etheridge would fit of course on 4.98, depends if it’s worth the gamble of having another new U24 Ekstraliga rider to the UK. They don’t always work out like we had last season Your normally the person in the know. Must be slipping as the years go on 🙈 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s going to be a 2 point reserve in the team. Who is out there who would be better? Would seem like a waste of time to stick with sam all last season to just drop him this year. You can carry 1 reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam would be a half decent signing untill June 30th . then we can replace him with william cairns when he is 16. . . . . just a thought . poole porch pirates would not be appy .. lets wait n see .i have got a big spoon for Christmas . i know its a wooden one cos my magnet will not stick to it .. poole think they are getting mr Cairns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulnerable for sure. You're right about Tate and Antti still learning away tracks and any other newcomers having to learn away tracks will make the Comets suspect away from home. Personally I can see Jye being a big improver this year. He'll love his new home track and the wide open spaces, plus from the teams point of view having someone else in the team who knows all the away tracks will be essential. I can see Jye adding 1.5 points on his average this year. I think Jye at his worst is a 5.00 point rider. I think he'll be a good improver and will be good for the team too. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would appear that there is no requirement for a 2pt reserve for 2025. Always need at least 1 good resrve and preferably 2 . I've always thought a top 1 and 5 coupled with 1 strong reserve are pre-requisites to being very competetive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted November 20 Report Share Posted November 20 If Jye can reproduce the form he showed when guesting for Sheffield in the 2023 play offs and when he was at Belle Vue then Workington have made a very good signing. That is quite a big if though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
