Endeavour Posted Thursday at 04:30 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 04:30 PM 1 hour ago, Mr Blobby said: Happy to see the skipper back. Good lad who improved loads last year. Don’t see the same improvement this year but if so fantastic. Will be more than happy if he maintains his starting average which is more realistic. Away form is a worry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t go round the white line at Ashfield hence he struggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could if Paco was behind you and still win by half a straight. He has a cracking moustache though I will give him that.

Mr Blobby Posted Thursday at 08:17 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 08:17 PM 4 hours ago, PTW said: So I guess that Paco at 5 for you guys,thinking they need a 2pt rider and upto 6.44 to make the team look reasonably competitive then palovarra can score highly at reserve would be the best option atm. Like a Max James and someone new to the league on a 6.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not be surprised to see another 5.00 plus Connor Coles to fit under the 8.44 left. That would allow the 3 x 5.00 pointers to "compete" for the No. 6 jacket and the potential 7 rides if required. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored 10 at Belle Vue for Ukraine in the SoN. Other forum members say he would come in at champ level on a 6 and he was interviewed in speedway star a few weeks ago saying he was looking for a championship club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guessing Edinburgh can nominate who has the lowest average or who they think is the better rider and they start at reserve,think if that option is still available Edinburgh would be mad to put Grahn at reserve imo.

Not sure we’d have a choice with victor already riding here and previously having a higher average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
