Have you ever seen competition for a spot in a team.
I will rate them in order.
Mcgee
Brown *Barras or Bannan rate his start as the best in the world
Roberts *will only be 30
Lancaster
Jamieson
Ford
Renshaw
Dawson
Olman
Kirsten *might challenge for Browns spot on the starting position. I think he is the best 1km starter
Finning
Hutchison
Woolridge
Howard *will be 18, and Mcgee first rode at 18
That's one deep talent pool. I would move Olman above probably Pete Dawson and Prince Harry.
I like the form Richard England is showing too....porbably not as gifted as everyone on this list, but is showing where hard training and lots of racing can get you. (Plus he's from my old club....
)
