How did belle vue fair against Ipswich in the playoff semis 2023 when we had our top 2 available? 👋👋 Even with an unfit riss and weak replacements at 7.

Doyle & Sayfutdinov are two years older & more battered, Bewley & Kurtz are two years more experienced.

It’s about 3 years now since you were adamant max fricke would be the top rider in the league and Jason Doyle was in decline how’s that looking!?

start of this season Doyle was right in the mix for a world championship challenge before he was injured, this happened in 2016 and in 2017 he was world champion! So we’ll see older yes, but I’m sure he’ll return with the bit between his teeth again in 2025.

Emil looked just fine upon return from injury for Toruń.

Was that when we were missing Wright who had scored paid 19 at Foxhall and we got 3 from his replacements?

We did beat you twice on aggregate that year when we had a full team and you had your top 2. 
 

Don’t think I’ve ever seen wright score more than about 7-9 points at Foxhall but maybe your memory serves you better.

You can double that. It’s Col’s favourite pastime predicting the demise of Doyle every winter. I mean, he’ll be right eventually! It’s been several years now that he predicted Doyle to be demoted to fourth best Aussie behind Kurtz, Fricke and Jack Holder.

Think he was adding both of Wright’s Foxhall scores together from this year. He did ride well in those meetings in fairness. No idea why people do this though. It’s impossible to use a riders scores from selected meetings to try and prove what he would have scored in meetings he was missing. Wright has also had some Foxhall shockers.

Agreed. He tried to make out having the top two in place this year would have secured a league title when as you rightly say it’s impossible to use a riders scores from selected meetings to try and prove what they would have scored in meetings they missed.

A poor original post tbh.

Don't expect many changes from 2024 team.   Announcements will start in a couple of weeks (after AGM I would think).

All riders in attendance bar Jason who was ill.
