cannot see how a medical officer can see inside a humans head and see any form of leakage or inner failings that has come to light . rules must have been written by the speedway control board lol. itts okay tho , its Poole . they win at all costs  , because they just have too .   LMAO ,

If Poole are off on Friday I guess that means they will need to replace Bomber in the restaging as his average goes up on Tuesday.

if he feels up to it, Cook should be able to ride again by Saturday/Sunday after the Concussion Protocol

Hope so. Would much rather have Ben Cook riding against us at home than Danny King.

I think Bomber brings something different at home against Oxford. When we lost in August at home I felt our top 3 gave far too much space and respect to Masters and Nicholls which wasn't given back that night! something I hope won't happen again.  With Bomber he will push/nudge and I think Masters and Nicholls will struggle to contain him.

Which is why we have to ride Friday because he won't be able to guest for us after Oct 1st.

I thought that was his decision as he was still feeling the after affects, not that he had a re-assessment and an enforced extended rest.

Adam failed two re-assessments before getting the all clear I believe.

So hopefully Ben will be fit for the rescheduled Grand final legs, away 5th & home 9th. But if not it's all change with the new GSAs. Can anyone out there clarify the averages bit. I'm thinking that a guest average can be no more than +5% of the rider to be substituted average. But is it the overall GSA, or the home/away ones? 

 

[Steve Shovlar]

Real average for away, +5% for home meeting.

Well thanks for the "knowledge" Steve. 

So if Ben doesn't recover and guests are required. My preferences based on my new found understanding of the rules would be:- Dan Thompson for the away leg (good record this season at Oxford 15 & 11+1), and Danny King for the home leg.
