Your very first home meeting to poor travellers Belle Vue with your original 1-7 and you lost it. Expand Salty My reply was to Daniel, who said we were bottom with our original team. Of course we was, we only had it for 3 meetings... 2 was away. Edited September 23, 2024 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKM91 Posted September 23, 2024 Report Share Posted September 23, 2024 I think two big 9+ average big hitters is too much, makes the rest of the team too weak and too much “strength in depth” is also not great… if we could happen to get Tungate and Kvech at 1&5 and have a solid middle order then I think that would definitely be enough for top 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s no coincidence that the three clubs that seem to be competing for the title in recent years (Ipswich, Belle Vue, Sheffield) all have two big hitters. Emil/Doyle, Bewley/Kurtz, Holder/Woffinden. Poole another example, won every year with a top heavy team with Chris Holder and Darcy ward. It’s clearly the way to go to have the biggest chance of success. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many wins were because of excellent guest choices. we were rock bottom with our original team. Expand lol we had some good guests and some who struggled but the whole point is that the team put out post musielak and his facility expiring were solid with a modest number one and strength down the order whether with our riders or guests and the irony is that some of those guests might be in the team next year essentially not spunking loads of money on a world star doesnt mean a lack of ambition. in fact building a team with harris at reserve for example would show some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarBoy Posted September 24, 2024 Report Share Posted September 24, 2024 (edited) In an ideal world you would have a blend of top end and strength in depth, especially to win your home meetings significantly to gain the aggregate bonus point. In my head the the perfect makeup of a team to get you to the magic 39 points should be (or as close as you can get): 1 - 8.5 (Lebedevs 8.0 ) 2 - 6 (Iversen 6.83) 3 - 7 (Kvech 6.58) 4 - 6 (Klindt 6.59) 5. - 7 (Lawson 7.09 / 6.91) 6 - 4.5 (Rowe 5.21 / 3.91) 7 - RS Total 39 (38.82) Edited September 24, 2024 by StarBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
